I am looking to by a 3.5" internal HDD that I can put in a case and use an external HDD for my laptop. I am looking for at least 6TB or larger depending what is the current £/TB sweet spot. I want to get the right drive that I can late use as a drive in my NAS.
The main storage content of this drive will be photos and videos. I currently have my data on a 4TB SSD that is quickly filling up. I have use around 2.5TB since the start of 2023.
I want to get my feet into having a good storage system but not sure which HDD to begin with that is also a good choice to be a drive in my NAS bay down the road (in around 2+ years time).
I am based in the UK and looking to keep my budget under £300. I don't mind buying used if I can get a good deal and quality.
Thank you for the help.
