I have managed Windows Storage, Servers, Authentication, and Network Services (DHCP, DNS, Authentication, Storage Security) in both Private Business and State GOV Datacenters for over 35 years. Want to move AWAY from Windows Server and Active Directory.
Have 2.5G managed, 1Gb unmanaged switches and a hi-end WiFi Mesh.
Would like NAS to support:
- Win10/11 Clients File access & backups.
- Asstd Linux Clients for same.
- VirtualBox? (other?) VM support for occasional Win10/11 VM's & persistent Linux VM's (i.e. Pi-Hole Secure DNS Server)...and LDAP Services if needed?
- 1080p and 4k media to AZ FireTVCubes.
Like mixed drive RAIDs if the performance and reliability doesn't suck (Hybrid/TRAID?).
NAS with VIDEO Output (KVM) for DIRECT Administration (not a fan of 100% Web base Administration).
Your VIDs DO help, but I'm drowning in RETIRMENT time re-education - THANX!
