Hi,
I am trying to decide between the Synology DS120j and 220+. My use case will be for photos, movies, documents (currently all saved to separate external hard drives and/or dropbox). It's for personal use only. I would like to be able to access the data from my Mac, iPad, iPhone but not have to store it on those devices (the reason being to centralise all data and not have it scattered across devices, drives and dropbox), so would need an additional back up, either in the form of a second NAS or external hard drives. I do not want to use services such as dropbox for backups (I currently do, but want to stop using them).
A friend of mine is using the 118 and recommended that one, so that would be another option.
The cheaper the better, but I'm ready to spend a little more if it is actually the better solution for my case.
Thank you very much in advance!! And let me know if you require additional info.
Best,
Gioia
