Hello

I'm searching for the most suitable solution to connect HDDs to my NUC.

The first option is to purchase a SATA to USB with power adapter.

The second option is to purchase a Dual Bay Docking Station like the one in the image below.

Buying 2×SATA to USB will cost me same as purchasing the Dual Bay Docking station.

My uses are mainly Media Server, Images Backup and other fun things :D

What are your recommendations ?

Best solution: Build/buy a NAS and connect over your network

Second best choice: Stop using a NUC and get a computer with the necessary space for the hardware that you want to use
