TIP: If you're just looking for a NAS solution to access your data on the network and not redundancy, many modern network routers have a USB port that will turn your external drive into a NAS. You can then access that drive anywhere on your network.

@@ImmodderNation That is a great tip, especially for anyone who might want to make an external drive accessible to the home network, without having to drop $700 or more on an NAS specific solution. And it would be a great way to utilize all those external drives. I wonder if you could plug all those external hard drives into an external USB hub, then plug the hub itself into the USB port on the router, thus allowing everyone on the local network to access ALL those hard drives as well. That would be pretty cool if that would work, and could conceivably resolve the issue of redundancies and data mirroring to ensure you have back ups of your back ups, as it were. And since they had already purchased those external hard drives, the only extra cost might be for a USB hub with between 4 and 7 USB ports. (And those hubs can be had relatively inexpensively, from my research and buying my own in the past. I bet Wish dotcom sells USB hubs for practically nothing these days. And, if they don't, I know Amazon and Walmart do.)

I'm glad he touched on the difference between "Redundancy" and "Backup" How many people actually backup their NAS? Probably none... People always mistake "Redundancy" for "Backup". They're NOT the same. Multiple drives in a RAID array gives you greater fault tolerance but if your array gets wiped out by malware, ransomware, etc. Its all gone. At the very least, get an external USB drive that matches the capacity of your NAS and setup an auto back up routine to back up your entire array to that external drive. AND PLEASE USE THE PROPER DRIVES DESIGNED FOR A NAS OR DATACENTER. I've had the same two 3TB WD Reds running in my DS212+ for the last 10 years with Zero issues. Only issue is capacity (I'm too cheap to spring for larger Reds). Aside from straight network storage the CPU is just fast enough for me to also run a DNS, DHCP and Media Server all in that same box.
@nikushim66654 ай бұрын
You can operate as NAS as a backup rather then a mirror, effectively just image dumping to it. But yes your typical RAID mirror is there for up-time, drive fails redundant copy takes it place while you swap out the bad one. Well unless its RAID 0 then your just F'ed.

You can certainly share your internal/external hard drive of your tower over your LAN. Most motherboards even support a RAID array of 0,1,10 that you can then share out over the network. All you have to do is configure the hard drive/s in the array you want, then use windows to share out that drive. As long as your tower stays online and connected to the network, you should be able to access the data from the wireless network from your laptop.

Synology has very poor compatibility with hard drives. If you want to use Western Digital drives under 10TB go ahead. QNAP works with pretty much all available drives but I'm not certain I want to spend that kind of money on something that will either break in a few years or become antiquated. I wish there were decent DAS options but it looks like there is no market for those. I just want storage that I can share between my different computers. A friend is telling me to get a router and program it so the computers can talk to each other. It's less then ideal but will save money and looks like the least bad option. He also says I could build my own computer for much less then a NAS and program it to do that job. Bloody computers. I world run by tinkerers.

The video is a good introductory video on NAS. One point of consideration with a NAS is to have it and the network gear (router or wireless router) on an Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS).

Cheers.
@Graham_Wideman5 жыл бұрын
"6 bay unit is only using 3 drives" That's only if you set the RAID to mirror. If you set to other RAID levels, it spreads the redundancy more thinly, so to speak. See for example en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_RAID_levels comparison table of space efficiency.

Hey guys. KZfaq content creator, Synology DS214+ user, and frequent lurker. Remember that redundancy only works if one or two drives fail, depending on the array.

I would agree NAS is more powerful and hard drive redundancy but they are more complex and as such there are a lot more points of failure in NAS than a simple external hard drive. For example setting up Ethernet is a lot more complex than USB with is plug and play. Also the operating system software running on the NAS could crash and if so you may not be able to access any of the hard drives without sending in the entire NAS unit for repairs. NAS has a motherboard which could have components fail separate from the hard drives.

Great video, and the Synology NAS unit is a great idea, however, it's certainly not bulletproof. I had a 4 drive Synology NAS unit set up as RAID using 2 Western Digital NAS 3TB drives. They were mirrored and everything worked fine until one morning when I could no longer access my data. Turns out that their was a problem with WD drives that they failed to tell the public, and I lost ALL of my data. It was unrecoverable, and I found out later that Western Digital was sued over SMR debacle in HDD. So you might want to mention to people to stay away from WD RED NAS drives. Fortunately, I had an older backup on a Seagate IronWolf drive and was able to recover 80% of my data, but it costs me a weeks work.

One thing he didn’t seem to mention is: if you’re savvy enough with tech, you can make your own NAS through a very basic desktop case that’s designed to hold as many HDDs/SSDs as possible.

Much more upgradeable one too, as you can swap out the cpu, psu, mobo, etc. and the average case can hold 6 drives easily, so I’m sure you can find one with more slots for cheaper. Also, you can easily set these up for raid configuration easily, whether it’s RAID 1, 0, or 1+0.

I develop software professionally. My main 2 computers use a high speed NVME SSD on the computer where the program resides (my new computer uses a SSD that can read at 4.5 G per second) It is still much faster to access data that is local rather than external or NAS (normally at least 10 times faster). My backup is on an internal hard drive (not as fast as SSD but much cheaper). My second backup is using a USB 3.0 connection to an external hard drive. If my main computer goes down, I can just plug my external hard drive into another computer and the just carry on. The best part is that this setup cost me less than $100, years ago for the external drive and I used an older hard drive to backup the M.2 NVME SSD on the main computer. I love the idea of a NAS but if your backup needs are only at the end of the day and not more than 4-6 Terabytes, I end up with 3 copies of my data, one of which is external and easily connected to another computer and best of all it cost me less than $100. (I setup a batch file and only backup the files that have changed that day) No NAS solution comes close to that level of safety, speed or cost. I think a NAS might make a great solution if you want to share data to multiple computers at the same time or have a library of videos or pictures that need shared to multi devices.

We are upgrading more stuff to NAS, but we have several hard drives connected to one computer that we CAN access from all other computers on our network, the problem with that is that computer with all the drives connected has to be on to do that. Whereas with a NAS we are looking forward to just having one computer running (We used to have both editing computers on all the time) if we just need quick access to something on that NAS as opposed to having to boot the main computer just to find a files. but now the main computer only has to be turned on 5 days a week, as most smaller video tasks can be done on the other computer the other 2 days a week, with no drives connected, as long as we don't need all file access, lol, so NAS is where we will be totally migrated to soon. And there has to be a power saving? Our main computer has 4 drives inside and 4 external, those 4 externals are all independently plugged in whereas our NAS would be one power supply. so if not a power saving a plug hole saving, lol. thanks for the info

I have 2 918+ Syno's, when I bought my first, it was a one bay NAS and one of the first models from Syno. And it was ok for backups, nothing more, because we were talking a max 100Mb network. Then I bought a few years ago a 918+ and it changed my workflow drastically. Now I have 2 of these connected as master and slave in RAID10 and both a hot spare eSata drives to fill up my HD's to the max (all 8Tb Ironwolfs). And one USB drive from 4Tb for archiving purposes. I'm into music, so big mixes and sounds take a lot of disk space. I have a Dell server as well, but this annoys maker is more off than on. Because the Syno's are quiet.

If you are on a network, you can share any disk on your computer, including external drives.

A NAS is nice for assessing files by all including hackers. If you just need backup backing up and turning off a external drive is not only safer but will live longer. Be sure to use high security on NAS. Remember if if your files are accessible on the web there accessible to all.
