Which NAS - Enquiries - 01-15-2023
Quick question. I've got an old ASUStor AS5002T which is used for home use with 2 WD 4Tb reds. It's 7 years old and needs to be replaced. I'm looking at either the QNAP TS233 or TS251d. I'm planning on using 2x 8Tb Toshiba n300 drives. I use it for my movies in MP4, loads of mp3s, and some photos and other stuff. Which do you recommend and are the drives good for the NAS?

From these models I would pick TS251d. It has graphics engine for videos and it is upgradable and expandable. Qnap also has no restrictions on drives you can use.
I hope this helps.
