Looking for the best nas solution

[Enquiries]

Hey Guys,

Thanks so much for making this service available for free, it’s uncanny we are a team of 2 filmmakers and we are looking to upgrade to a storage solution that we could edit from and also plug to Blackmagic cloud via their cloud pod. The solution would also be our main storage for backups. We hope to spend something like 5000€ but our budget is flexible if there is a truly outstanding system for a bit higher price. We have no knowledge but we can learn fast as we are tech dudes on other subjects !

We were thinking 6/8 bay and 2x Thunderbolt 3 to our m1max MacBook Pros (2022)

Thanks again, looking forward to hear from you !

Yes, Thunderbolt solution for local use will be a logical choice. There are only 72XT and 88X series that allows this connection

You can then set up QSYNC that can be used for cloud collaboration - shared timelines.
Otherwise, you can also use 10GbE or 25GbE connections to elaborately edit.


I hope this helps.
