Hello - I have an older QNAP TS-569L NAs - I haven't used it in years - I have 5 2TB Seagate 7200 HDD in Raid = 7.5 TB
My question is I want to build my own cloud storage to share files (Movies - TV Shows etc). Do you think this older unit is still good enough or is it easier to get a new one - I've been looking at a Synology D220+ but it only has 2 bays - So I would have to buy 2 new drives to put in it - Probably 4 or 6 TB - Which would put me around $650 to $700 all in - Any thoughts on what is my best way to go - I appreciate your help - thanks. I did see that all the reviews were saying the Synology software is much easier to configure than QNAP is. Thanks in advance for your answers - Cheers.
