Hi All!

First, thank you for your time.

I hope to build a proper home server one day, but my research has shown me I have a lot to learn first.

In the meantime, I've got around 10TB of data with no real backup solution... so I'm going to bite the bullet and buy a prebuilt for ease of mind while I learn more about creating my own server.

Goal:

  • RAID 6 for max redundancy (Please correct me if I'm wrong)
  • 4x 12TB HDD drives
  • Primary use case is backup
  • Secondary use case is web-accessible & streaming media
  • Not cost sensitive, but I also don't want to waste money either

Priorities: Stability/Protection > web acces > cost > streaming

Thank you in advance for any recommendations!
