Nas: DS1522+ [ Ссылка ]
Anyone who works with massive amounts of video or photo files knows how easy it is to burn through all the available storage space on your computer. That's where a NAS shines. NAS stands for Network Attached Storage. It's a storage device connected to your home network that you can use as a global storage device for everything connected to the network. Of course, you can also limit and control what devices have access.
In my case, I've been using a NAS as my main storage device for all my video files. With proxies, I can even edit video files right from the NAS without the need for a faster 10GbE network adapter.
Unfortunately, I returned from a recent camping trip to find the motherboard not working in my DS1515+. My solution was to migrate the drives to a new DS1522+. Luckily, Synology makes the migration process painless, and I didn't lose any files!
Regarding backups, create at least one OFF-SITE physical backup. Take it to a bank safe box or to a trusted friend or family member's house. Get it away from your house and preferably in another town or city. That way if a natural disaster or house fire happens, you will have a backup that is hopefully unaffected by the event.
