Hello friends!

I would like some help and confirmation from you.

I live in a country where taxes are currently very high, which makes NAS solutions extremely expensive. To reduce this cost and have a more flexible solution, I am thinking about developing my own NAS system and would like to know if it is possible and if you have any suggestions.

I will only use it to back up photos and important files from my devices, mainly my cell phone, and to be able to access this data from anywhere like a classic Google Drive.

My plan is to acquire a mini PC -T9 chatreey (Intel N150, 8G RAM, 256GB SSD, 2xUSB-C, etc.) and a case for the 3.5' HDD connected via the USB-C port to optimize speed.

I am thinking of installing Synology DSM 7.1 or 7.2 on it because it seems like the perfect software for my use. Plan B for the software would be to use a solution like CasaOS with Tailscale.

What do you think? I would like to thank you in advance for all your suggestions and help.
