nas drives in my pc

#1
my PC is on pretty much 24/7, except for updates, would it be possible to use nas drives? I have very old barracuda 2TB that is running hot and getting noisy that I want to replace

Yes, it is possible to use NAS drives with your PC as long as your PC has a network interface and can access the NAS over the network. NAS drives are designed to be used with NAS devices, but they are essentially regular hard drives with some additional firmware optimizations for use in a NAS environment.

When choosing a NAS drive to replace your Barracuda drive, make sure to select one that is compatible with your PC's operating system and has a suitable capacity for your needs. You should also consider the drive's performance specifications, such as its speed and cache size, to ensure that it meets your requirements for speed and responsiveness.

It's worth noting that NAS drives may be designed to run cooler and quieter than regular desktop drives, as they are typically used in environments with multiple drives and limited ventilation. However, the specific characteristics of any given NAS drive will depend on the manufacturer and model.
