Hi there,
I have a basic Synology DS220J with a pair of 10TB drives in it - one for an SMB share, the other for backup snapshots of that share.
I've secured a couple more of the same 10TB drives and was hoping to run RAID5 or similar with a hot-spare - so I'm looking for a NAS in the UK currently on sale that ideally has:
- 4x 3.5" bays
- SSD cacheing (M.2 so that it doesn't use a 3.5" bay)
- 2.5GbE networking, (or 2.5GbE-compatible 10-Base-T networking)
I've read a few of your recommendations in FAQs and unfortunately most of the recommendations are no longer on sale. As someone who likely has a good knowledge of what's the best deals going in realtime, are you able to recommend anything?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
