Nas advice

#1
Hi.

I got tho das arrays, 40 tb lacio 5big, 12tb promise pegasus,
Im tired of the noise, I fear for reliability and I don't generally like any of them.

I want flexibility, speed and network options for remote access and client clouds is very appealing.

My though is to get an ssd raid, 32 tb for in the room always on storage, 6 bays populated in raid with my existing ironwolf pro 8tb disks and two 16tb bays with maybe exos for raid 1 archives.

Like I offload to the big raid (6 bays), work from my ssd's (which should also hold all my librarys, expansions, plugins and all that stuff that is kind of a part of my system) and the archive (two bays) could probably have som automatic backup pattern from the raid.
I'm thinking 8bay.

I've been looking int nas solutions for a long time and I can't find what I need, which way to go. Synology or qnap.
I'm happy for suggestions and guidance. Budget is also in consideration of need and common sense, but I want to get it right.

Based on your requirements, I would recommend looking into the QNAP TVS-872XT or TVS-1288x models that support Thunderbolt, or the Synology DS1621xs+ or DS1823xs+ models that have 10GbE connectivity.

The QNAP TVS-872XT and TVS-1288x both support Thunderbolt 3 connectivity, which provides fast transfer speeds and low latency for working with large files and media. These models also feature support for 10GbE connectivity, which is useful for remote access and client clouds. Additionally, they are expandable with additional drive bays or expansion units, providing flexibility for future growth.

On the other hand, the Synology DS1621xs+ and DS1823xs+ offer fast transfer speeds and support for RAID configurations, as well as expandability with additional drive bays or expansion units. These models are ideal for use cases where high-performance storage is required, such as video editing, media production, or virtualization. They also have 10GbE connectivity, which is beneficial for remote access and client clouds.

When choosing between these models, consider factors such as compatibility with your existing hardware and software, price, noise level, and power consumption. Also, make sure to consider the amount of storage you need and how much room you have for expansion. Additionally, be sure to take into account the level of data protection you require, and whether you need advanced features such as inline data deduplication or inline compression
