I want to make sure I don't overspend or underspend. I'm looking for a NAS to do the following:
1. A place for local file backups for my current backup software (Arq) for two computers
2. A place to store files that don't fit on my computer such as photos and music
3. The ability to access those files remotely on my Mac. (I have a VPN set up on my router, so I'm fine using the VPN if that is the solution.)
Nice to have would be the following:
1. The ability to display the photos on my TV
2. The ability to hook up a camera
I don't think I need more than two bays at this point. I'm looking at the following models:
1. DS220j
2. DS218play
3. DS218
4. DS220+
Is the DS220j too underpowered? Is the DS220+ too overpowered? Thanks!
