Hi i am considering purchase of QNAP TS-230 with ST4000VN008.
Estimated usage - 1) stockpile for our family , 2) first tier backup from 2 laptops.
Question 1: Will it work if I initially purchase just the NAS with one HDD of 4Tb - start using it and during the year add another 4Tb to create RAID 1 ?
Question 2: I want to use a usb HDD to attach to the NAS as 2 tier backup - is it any good of a strategy? Could You advise on particular hardware?
P.S. Thanx 4 those reviews on Youtube - these are quite good for a newbie.
