We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

u/Stt022, man, I'm sorry for your (almost) loss... (though you have not yet killed the NAS)
For the past 15+ or so years (about... plus minus a year or so), I modified my Home network to have all devices completly off... that was NASes, Switches, PCs, Home Server(s) (had a few at home), home sound system, everything off.
That change + (back then) I swtiched every single light bulb to LEDs...
That translated to almost 70% reduction in my energy comsumption...
Seeing that change on my monthly bill was nice... and has kept every since.
You could look into just shutting the devices down and only turning them on, on a need-to-use basis... you then get to keep your NAS, reduce your energy costs and save some doe.
Let me know what you think (or if there are additional considerations to think about)
