Thinking of getting a small NAS.
Will be primarily for data storage rather than streaming etc.
All my RAW photos will be on it and accessed through Lightroom on occasion.
I initially looked at the 2x 2Tb Synology DS216j after suggestion of drive redundancy, but I've also seen the WD EX2 Ultra in the same format and capacity and it is quite a bit cheaper.
Both use 'Red' drives and also seem to support Amazon S3 for backup to cloud which I am also looking at.
For what I need it for I am not sure which would be OK. Just me accessing it, although possibly from multiple PCs, but want some sort of user based security.
Also for the cloud backup, the ability to select what gets sent, rather than the whole lot as some does not need a cloud backup.
