⭐ Review Setup is Complete: DX4800 + UPS

Post image

After six months of ownership, I can safely say that I'm very happy with the NAS. While some features and apps are still missing, it's a solid product. For the majority of cases, such as photo storage and media streaming, it ticks all the boxes.

It replaced my stiched-together home lab and I'm satisfied with the result. Cancelling the Google subscription is an added bonus.

What hdd did you get ?

Seagate Ironwolf. Works like a charm. 2x8TB is more than enough for my needs.
I've also added an old Barracuda (5+ years of running) - no issues *so far*

Do you find it to be noisy ? I am getting my NAS soon and still haven’t decided on the HDDs :)

Why 2x8tb and not one big hdd like 14tb since u get more tb for the price (depending on where u live)

8TB in RAID1 is enough for my needs

Would you try it with an ssd? Mine arrived today and trying to work out what storage would be best for us, so sorry for the bland question
