Hi Team, just wanted to say that you do a great job with the youtube channel, I have learnt a lot.
I wanted to ask for your advice on what would be a better storage solution for my needs - DAS or NAS?
I primarily want to use it for storing movies, TV shows, photos, games, and backing up files.
My main use will be to backup photos and videos from my phone, but I would also like to access those photos and videos through an app on my devices and my PC. It seems that a synology NAS is a good solution due to the software.
I will occasionally stream a movie or TV show through PLEX when at home.
Currently, my PC has two hard drives, one 4TB drive for games and photos, one 3TB drive for movies, music, and TV shows, and one 1TB NVMe for my Windows OS and other files.
I expect to double my storage capacity in about four years with all the photos and videos, but I would like to reduce the number of separate drives and consolidate into perhaps a larger capacity drive.
Thank you again!
