Hello
I'm planning to buy a NAS, just waiting a bit for potentially better price of DS223 or taking maybe DS220+, important for me is that it has BTRFS for snapshots.
I have 2 questions.
1. I wish to keep the device in the same room as I sleep and I wish it to be quiet as possible. I don't need a lot of space, at the moment I have less than 1TB on my internal drive taken. I'm considering buying 2x1TB SSD, because higher capacities of SSD's are too expensive for that idea. Alternatively, I'll go with 4TB Ironwolfs. How loud it is when the hard-drives run, or do they spin-off in case of being not used at night, and only spin-on in case of actual drive access or also randomly?
2. I plan to from Windows to Fedora. On YouTube there is almost nothing useful about Fedora related Synology NAS videos. I wonder if you could make a video about using Synology NAS with linux, if Fedora even better. I wonder about how network shares and Synology Drive works there.
Thanks,
Denis
