Synology DS223 or DS224+ or DS423 or DS423+, and SHR or RAID in our situation? in c/datahoarder@selfhosted.forum
[–] bobsim1@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

If u go with a 2bay you should go with 10tb or more. You wont be able to expand. SHR-2 is not worth it in a 4bay imo. Shr is the way to go, its optimized for the NAS and for expanding later. Maybe check some prizes to see what makes sense.

On a tight budget id go with 2. A even cheaper case and drives that can be used in a NAS in the future.

I have iron wolf 3TB in my NAS. But seeing they only increased in price over the last months i reconsidered. I just bought Exos E 8TB because theyre quite a bit cheaper and should perform equally. I have to install them yet.
