Hello, I am looking at setting up a NAS for home use. My primary use for large amounts of storage is a photography hobby, as well as random important files/backups of my desktop. I currently have ~3-4tb of data on external harddrives that I would like to copy over to a NAS and also have room for future growth.
My questions are regarding which NAS to purchase, and which harddrives (brand and size) would you recommend? Online research is leading me towards either the UNAS 4 or DS423. I have concerns about Synology and acceptance of nonproprietary HDDs. Budget is flexible if you think a 6 or 8 bay NAS would be a better option, or is this overkill for the amount of space I might need? Thank you for your help!
