Hi, thanks for Your informative site. The more I hear the more I get confused though. I habe a QNAP 223 NAS mainly for time machine backup. Due to the hardware limitations the GUI go the QNAP has become almost unusable. To male things worse I have shingled WD Red (without pro) drives that are supposed to be a no go. I am thinking about getting a new system with new drives. I need it to be rather silent, I won't bei doing much VM though I would like toying around with that too. 2x8TB Drives vs 4x4TB drives ? I was thinking DS220+ with 2 8TB Toshiba or Synology 3300. Thanks !!
