Hoping to set up a general location to throw files.

It might be used as a storage dump for Plex too…

Recommendations?

Edit: the synology recommendations have won out. Went with the DS923+. Thanks for all of the thoughtful recommendations!

    Never setup a nas but if I was to get one, I would use truenas since it is foss.

    For fireproof and waterproof nas systems, check out iosafe. Not sure if truenas will work on them however.

        Yes, it is the OS of the nas. I do not know what hardware will work for it. I only played around with truenas in a VM

      Plenty of FOSS ways to set up a NAS. I’m going for Debian with ZFS myself, I prefer custom solutions as they are almost always more flexible than “NAS OS:es”.

        What software do you need when using debian? Just ZFS as a file system?
