Medical professional looking to store DICOM files remotely and access them a DICOM viewer

For storing DICOM files and accessing them remotely, I recommend considering a NAS solution that can handle the specific needs of medical imaging. Since you're looking at 16-20TB of storage, a good option would be to go for a Synology DS1821+ or QNAP TS-873A. Both models offer sufficient bays for expansion and have excellent support for remote access.

These NAS units are user-friendly and support third-party DICOM viewers, ensuring you can easily manage and view your files. Additionally, they provide the ability to set up user permissions and data encryption, which is essential for maintaining confidentiality in medical data.

Make sure to choose drives that are optimized for NAS use, like WD Red or Seagate IronWolf, for reliable performance. With your budget of around $2000, you should be able to get a solid setup that meets your needs.
