SMFH 😑😒 Hi, regular guy here whos cursed with being an educated consumer / shopper / buyer… This shit is overwhelming and whats annoying is everywhere you go people swear by or hate NAS, RAID & weather its SSD & HDD - nothing is ever enough!!! I just need to save some shit somewhere permanently thats reliable so whenever I feel like it I can time travel; Im okay with backing up my back up, im also okay with having a 8TB Memory with 64GB RAM laptop and not using it even though I paid extra for it and instead using an external portable drive (this shit makes no sense for regular people). … I like your accent, keep up the great work, bud. Happy holidays and thanks for tryna make sense of all this nonsense.

Hey thanks for making this! I definitely want something a bit less janky than just multiple external drives I keep swapping out, so RAID seems like the fit for me, and from these explanations I think (to start with at least) I might go with SHR1

Really well done / explained. Thank you.

9:46 Deez NAS! P.S. it had to be done ...

thanks for your videos! Can I ask a question? My 213J is finally full, so I just bought a 723+ ( 2x4TB) thinking I can still use the 213j to access those files AND use the new storage on the 723+. can I have 2 NAS work simultaneously? Or should I have bought a 4 bay and transfer the full drives into two of the bay with 2 extra bays? Can you please help? I am so confused! THANK YOU!!!!

5:24 I think you meant TB instead of GB.

Is there a way to plug an external drive in the back of most Synology drives to backup a hard copy to put in a safe?

Is the Synology 923 Plus good for 1080p/ 4K transcoding ?

You lied in your video title. An external HDD is NOT a RAID, and i suspect you know that.

Pretty Awesome!!! The solution that we exactly need it!
