I'm looking at either a DS224+ or TS-262-4G and I know you've written comparisons on these. I have 2 questions, one on choice of HD and the other is software. My primary use case is for archival storage and to use as cloud storage for pictures taken on my phone (iPhone). Reading though the docs on Synology and QNAP, Synology doesn't exactly say that pictures taken on you phone will be automatically upload, where QNAP does. Also which is best for this application. The second question is, is it worth buying 7200 rpm drives over 5400 rpm drives. Is read/write speed of the drive the limiting factor or is it the throughput of the NAS. Also any thoughts on WD vs Seagate.
