Hi,
I run a small solo video production company and I'm looking to upgrade my storage solution. Currently I have a bunch of 2 TB hard drives laying around and I would like to change that.
I work with the Mac environment and I'm looking for a DAS. I don't necessarily need a NAS as I work alone and do not need to access my data remotely. I would like to edit large 4k Video files directly off my DAS, ideally with a thunderbolt connection. For that reason, I think it would make sense to go for a solution that offers NVME slots for caching, right?
I currently have around 8 TB waiting to be stored on there and expect around 2-3 TB of data per year. I would like to be able to configure the drives as RAID 5 or 6 and I would probably opt for 2 units so that I can create a backup every few months or so and store it off site.
Do you have any recommendation for me?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Have a nice day
Cheers
Raul
