Hello guys,
1 - I have a diy nas already based on a Mac Mini connected to backblaze
2- it's a 2-1 solution, and I want a local backup now to minimize downtime
3- Was going to go for a syno 5 bays, but it looks like I have to pay 50 % more than I should and they have weird policies with hard drives going on.
So here is where I'm going to :
Unraid (so that I can re-use hard drives)
ECC Memory
10 gb ethernet (maybe I will use for video editing)
2 nvme slot for caching
8 bays is my sweetspot
I have no need of graphic cards or transcoding as plex is on the Macmini and I direct play anyway
The problem is the case, I almost want to scrap the project and go to syno just because I cannot find something appropriate. I want something horizontal, I don't need too compact but it cannot be too high
Node 804 - Not easily available for me, but I would like something similar
