Just wanted to say thanks for this, I’ve gone down a whole rabbit hole of NAS devices and I think I can cover my needs and my whole family with N.2 storage. Something along the lines of 12 TB should be enough so 4 *4tb (one redundant) may be the best option and I’m a stickler for power consumption, so a little N150 can probably run everything for less than 20w.
Hey, I'm glad you found it helpful. I run a lot on my N100.
As well as some extra services mostly for utility reasons, a reverse proxy, some headless game servers, etc. The applications don't all do things at the same time, e.g. Jellyfin isn't sitting and transcoding 100% of the time, so the only time it's really loaded down is when a lot of people connect to a game server.
My only advice would be to maybe check the price/performance difference between the N100 and the N150. I was initially going for the N150 as well, but found that paying double for the marginal performance difference of the N150 just wasn't worth it for me. I spent the savings on more storage instead.
