Hey!
I'm looking for recommendations about NAS & HDDs for it.
NAS:
- For home use
- 4-5 bay NAS
- Mostly used as a backup of personal photos, videos, and documents
- It would be great if I could use it to edit some 4k videos
- I might also want to set up a few VMs or a Dockers
- It would be a plus if I would be able to play 4k footage from NAS on my TV
HDDs:
- Preferably +10TB each
- The most important factor is the noise level. Right now I would have to put the NAS in the living room close to the TV
Do you also have any recommendations for RAM / SSDs?
I was thinking about DS923+ and WD Red Plus 12TB, but I've read that Seagate Ironwolf (12TB too) are quieter so I'm leaning more toward them right now.
Would this setup be okay for my requirements and does it even make sense to put it in the living room, or it would be too loud anyway?
I don't have an exact budget, I just want to buy whatever is best for this case.
Thanks!
