Thank you for reaching out! It seems there was a change in the QNAP model naming, and the new series is the 74 Thunderbolt series, not the 64 series as you mentioned. The upcoming QNAP 74 Thunderbolt series is an excellent choice since it offers a two-in-one solution, functioning as both a NAS and DAS (Direct-Attached Storage). However, if you need a solution right away and can't wait for the release, there are alternative options to consider. You can explore DAS-only solutions from more budget-friendly brands like TerraMaster, Areca, or Promise, which will allow you to combine all your drives.
