I am a home user. Hobbies include photography and videography. I'd like to find a back up storage solution for my home. I have a Pc which I do my photo and video editing from and would like to back up the system and files.
I'd like to connect my wifes laptop to back up her data.
I'd like to also be able to back up our phones and tablets.
I'm currently paying google cloud storage 2tb.
I've had my eye on the Ugreen dxp4800 plus, seen it on sale for around £490. Watching your videos, I think I'm set on a 4 bay nas rather than 2 bay. My videos are shot in 4k.
For hdd i was thinking wd red as I read they were quieter and the unit will be in my lounge! If I have understood correctly, 4X 8TB nas will recommend RAID 5 and ultimately I'll have 24TB of capacity?
Regarding cache size of the hdd, the dxp4800 plus has m.2 bays, so would it be reasonable to have smaller cache size hdd? Do both m.2 bays need to be populated?
