*_"NAS are a gateway drug to learning IT"_* As an experienced IT guy I consider that a rather weird comment.

While there are pros and cons to owning a NAS, this video gets a bit confusing at times. It seems to focus more on the storage part rather than the networking and compute aspects, which are definitely more complex. Having a NAS is neither a starting point nor a prerequisite to learning dockers,linux etc. There are more complex concepts involved, and getting a NAS is not something I would bother with if thats your goal. A better advice to learn these things would be to get a rpi or a cloud provider free-tier account and learn. Also having a NAS without proper networking in place is either going to limit your applications or make your content more prone to attacks. This is something which most cloud providers are going to be better at, not to forget being able to reach the disk with probably better connectivity than your ISP. The cons should be properly explained here. AFAIK owning a NAS is only worthwhile if you have lots of media files you dont need to access from everywhere and money is factor (doorbell footage, dslr raw files, plex etc come to mind)

So if I have a shit ton of media files and just need them stored somewhere only need to access them once in a blue moon when I’m at home, then this device is good? (We’re talking like 100,000’s of RAW files and video)

@@devindoucette4958 Short answer: Yes. If you can afford it, go for it. However it might be an overkill for your situation. If you just want to connect to your media files at home, from 1 PC, Pcie (in most cases a USB cable) would be the fastest (in most cases i.e fast data cable), cheapest and most secure. Get the right cable and you're set, just connect to your PC and go. It doesn't require any compute/networking and will be the most secure. If you want to connect to the storage via network/wifi you need a networking access and some compute with it. I would suggest using an old PC/RaspberryPi, leave it powered on and connect to your storage via usb. From there just configure the network on it (ethernet or wifi) and use a protocol to allow remote connections and file transfers (SSH with SFTP/Samba/FTP etc). This is basically DIYing a NAS, but will be cheaper.

Oh my goodness. I'm well versed (but a bit rusty) in Linux, but I will be in needing some media storage in the nearish future. So you've given me a lot more ideas to think about. And it's awesome that you use Home Assistant and automate your home. I have one camera (we used to have quite a few but that was several years ago and they've aged poorly) and also use HA to run my household - as well as a couple common voice assistants. For me it's mostly motion detection in rooms so that lights come on when I enter. I started following you for the Obsidian topics, but I'm staying because you're into a lot of the fun stuff I enjoy.

The sound for the most part is pretty inaudible. The only time I notice any sound at all is when my NAS gets backed up to the cloud. My NAS to cloud back up periodically goes through all the files on the disk to verify what has changed so does a lot of reading so very busy. In normal usage or backing my PC's upto the NAS I don't notice it. I also have the Synology 4 drive 920+ which has 2 fans in the back, a 2 drive NAS would only have 1 fan so is even quieter. For note I have mine populated with 4 Seagate Ironwolf drives. I have used a Synology NAS since 2012 and would never look elsewhere . My first one was given to a colleague and it is still going strong . I have no idea what Synology support is like as I have never had to call them. Also with Synology if there is a time when you know they will not be used you can schedule them to power on and off at different times not that they cost much to run anyway.

How did you install HomeKit in a non Apple hardware?

Hi I don’t really understand how any of this stuff works, but basically, this thing lets me plug a hard drive into a router and make it accessible to any device in the house? How does it work? For example, I have a hard drive right now with a few terabytes worth of movies, anime, and video game ROMs. Can I put all that stuff in the NAS and then access that stuff through a regular looking folder on my PC, MacBook, iPad, and iOS? Does that stuff need to be downloaded to my computer’s actual storage to be used? How does it work?

@igatmatthew2283

Ай бұрын

NAS is a file server. A server is just another computer which "serves" you with the thing you want. In this case, it's files. So NAS acts as a data-storage computer that is accessible over the local network (and on internet too if you want to expose it). You would need to setup the NAS just like how you would setup another laptop, but most ppl use linux OS since its free, lightweight, and open sourced (this part takes a bit of learning curve as FromSergio mentioned). But once you've setup NAS, you can configure a "shared folder" on NAS that will popup on your MacOS' Finder app or Windows' File Explorer. At this point you can interact with that folder just as you would with a regular folder on your local computer. Hope this helps!

I don't understand how people make some leap of logic from external storage, to a NAS. That's like going from a scooter to a sports car. Its stupid. Instead, a far more elegant solution that will fill most peoples needs for FAR CHEAPER, is simply to re-use old HDD/SSDs as archival storage, and use a HDD caddy to plug them in to a computer to access, without the need to open up the PC and fiddle about with SATA power and data cables. Effectively, turning your old 1TB+ HDDs in to USB sticks, in a way. Or at least you can treat them like them, plugging them in and out of your PC like one through the caddy. Not to mention this saves a lot of money not only on the price difference of caddy vs NAS (£20-30 vs £100-£200+) but also on power costs, because its not on all the time unless you want to do that, and still offers most of the same benefits like automatic backup, if you set that up. The only real thing you lose is the ability to access data anywhere anytime but honestly for 99% of people, that kind of data will be in the form of forms, documents etc, and so using google drive, one drive, dropbox, will all suit your needs.

I still don't see the advantage over having one HD and another one for backup. I only need a SBC like a Raspi for that.
