Hey!

I have a NAS with 16TB of active storage using RAID. As a newbie, I didn’t even think about the possibility of my NAS drives failing with time, especially after reading horror stories with seagate ironwolf drives which I’m currently using.

I hate SaaS and cloud, and would much prefer a local backup to my Synology NAS. What drives do you recommend? Been looking at the WD My Book 16TB or Easystore 18TB from Amazon, but I’m unsure. I don’t care about house fires / theft, so ignore that risk of backup solutions.

Taking all ideas! Thank you 🥰
