I use a mini PC (n100 processor) for my home server. I just have a 6tb HDD plugged into it. I’m wondering what the best solution is for me long term. I’ll probably have the HDD filled in about a year.
I see a lot of usb enclosures on Amazon but the idea of running like 5 disks over a single usb makes me nervous.
I also keep seeing the 4 bay qnap DAS that can do raid 5. That’s tempting too to prevent data loss.
I’d like to keep the miniPC as the center since it’s configured just how I like it.
What would you recommend for external storage?
