I am a photographer and have recently started doing 4k videos for my clients.
This has highlighted to me the need for more storage that has redundancy and can be easily backed up.
I would think that I would dump all my camera files onto the NAS and work from there.
Cache files would be stored locally on a NVME ssd drive
The NAS would store my video and photo archives as well.
I'm scared of going overkill mode on this, but my thought is to have a 4 bay drive housing, and initially use two 18TB drives.
I did see your video where you used 3 drives, with two being raid, but I didnt understand that fully!
I work by myself so not needing others to access files at the same time.
I was also wondering how expensive are these devices to run since I presume you leave them on all the time.
Thanks,
Alan
