Hi,
I am looking to pick up my first NAS, and your videos have been incredibly helpful. I specifically want a rackmount since I have a server cabinet in my home. I have the opportunity to buy a SA3400 off a friend (almost new with 4 years left on warranty), for £2500.
It's on the higher end on my budget, but I do want a minimum 8 bay rackmount. Only concern is that the CPU does not do hardware transcoding. My household will have a number of users, and I want to make sure it can handle everything if I'm spending that kind of money.
I will simultaneously use the NAS to run home assistant, and process 4 security camera feeds (720p without motion, 4k during motion).
Do you have any better recommendations? Or should I pick this one up?
Thanks,
Maxim
