Dear NASCompare Team,
I'm looking for advice on selecting the right NAS for my setup. I currently own three 4TB WD Red SN700 NVMe SSDs, and I’d like to build a system that can fully utilize them.
Here are my key requirements:
The NAS should support NVMe SSDs not just for caching, but as primary storage.
I plan to configure the drives in RAID 5 for redundancy and performance.
I’d like the option to expand with two additional NVMe SSDs in the future (total of 5 drives).
Ideally, the NAS would include at least 2,5GbE or 10GbE connectivity to take advantage of the SSD speeds.
Compatibility with WD Red SN700 drives is essential.
The system should be reliable for 24/7 operation, potentially for virtualization, media streaming, or Docker workloads.
If there are any models that meet these criteria—or if you recommend a solution involving PCIe expansion cards or other configurations—I’d greatly appreciate your guidance.
Best regards,
Zsolt
