I was thinking I would get the Synology DS1522+ (5 bay) and a DS224+ (2 bay) to back up my data to (then another 224+ for offsight backup). As I looked though I can get a DS1821+ for only 50 dollars more than the 1522+ and the 224+. So what if I bought the 1821+, set up two seperate volumes and used one volume as a back up to the other volume. Would that be considered a legitimate back up? Has anyone else done this successfully?
Just for information, I have MAYBE a total of 4TB of info right now. However, I also know that once I do this I will quickly triple that amount or more. This is also for home use and if I lose a day or two of using the data it isn't a big deal. It's photos, wifes sewing patterns, etc.
