Good evening,
First, thank you for the time and effort to explain the different brands, highlighting Pros and Cons of the different manufacturer's.
I want to buy my first NAS. In basic to provide storage for iPhone backup, other hdd’s with backup on them, redundancy in backup (at least one drive failover). IT knowledge is mediocre. I am considering a Synology NAS, 4 bay; like the DS920+
My question is the following: if I now make a setup of 3 times 10 TB for day to day use and backup and leave one bay open for a feature surveillance drive, is that something that is to be advised? Or should I populate all 4 bays due to backup and expand the nas in the nearby feature and make the expansion a dedicated surveillance setup?
Would love to hear your advice. Any more tips that I should take into consideration?
Best Regards,
Mark
