NAS for home and future; but first NAS?

#2
If you happen to change Ethernet wiring too, it would be beneficial to have CAT6a or CAT7 for future-proofing. Old 1GbEEthernet is slowly being replaced by 2.5GbE. It would still work with old cables but 5GbE might already require something better.DS920+ would be a good choice. Synology OS integrates very well with other operating system and they make really good mobile apps. People have even managed to connect Qnap USB 5GbE Ethernet adapter to speed up network transfers.Otherwise Qnap 53D series is a good choice. It has 2.5GBE built-in and allows 10GbE to upgrade via PCIe.Once you set things up, there is little need to log into a NAS system. You will have a network drive mounted to your computer and mobile apps syncing the data.It will serve as a network storage access point. Qnap will allow you to have more configuration options if you like play with settings though.I hope this helps.
