Best DAS for home storage?

#1
Hi, I'm looking for a DAS that does raid 5 for data storage.

I've got a terra master d4-310 with 4x8TB as 2 sets of raid 1.

I am looking between a

QNAP TR-004 4 Bay Desktop NAS Expansion

or a

TerraMaster D4-300 USB

So I can have 24TB of useable space.

Obviously the terra master is cheaper but finding out if it can do software raid 5 is difficult.

It does look like the Qnap can do hard and software raid 5.

Is the Qnap the sensible option as it might be more money but ease of use is the main thing.

Yes, Qnap will allow you to have a hardware RAID or Software RAID. Hardware will improve the performance significantly though.Just make sure what USB speeds you expect. Qnap runs at 5Gbit USB.I hope this helps.
