Hard Drive Bays and RAID Types - How many drives do you need? What are the different types of RAID? Should you use Raid 5, 6, or 10? 2. CPU Power: What are you doing? This will help determine what you need. 3. Network Speed: Do you need 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps, or 10 Gbps? 4. Power Usage: How much does it cost to run various NAS units? 5. DIY vs Pre-built NAS: Should you build your own or buy one off the shelf? Which is more secure, which is more open, etc.? 0:00 - Intro 00:17 - Five things to consider 00:59 - Why I recommend UGREEN 03:05 - Hard drive bays — how many do you need? 06:46 - CPU power 10:48 - Network ports and speed 14:30 - Power usage 16:23 - DIY vs Pre-built NAS Social 🐘 Fediverse: https://easymode.im/@ward/ 🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/teksyndicate/ 🛸 Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/wardhale.bsky.social 💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/vsCxNSD 🎥 Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/midnightdojo/ 💼 Marketing & Sponsorships For inquiries, email: inbox@teksyndicate.com We only email from @teksyndicate.com or @midnightdojo.com — beware of other addresses!
