Hoping you can help with best NAS to get:
• NAS will be in a quiet living room, so drive/fan noise is a big issue.
Currently I have an iMac connected to a number of hard drives, which I've slowly over the years been swapping from HDDs to SSDs, which has definitely made things much better. A faint fan hum is not the end of the world, but definitely hearing disk drives clicking and whirrling is a big problem. Does Qnap tbs-h574tx make too much noise even with heat sink attachments??
• I require a pretty large amount of storage. I'd ideally like something like an Asus Flashstor 12 Pro because at absolute bare minimum I'd want 24TB (formatted) of space and ideally a bunch more than that for expansion as in the ideal world I'd like this to be partly for media center and partly for work files (video editing and animation sequences).
• Of critical importance is for this NAS to be a top notch ROON server. I'll also use Plex as well.
• want 10gbps ethnt & good USB or Tbolt connect.
