Each one offers multiple options for various budgets.
Depending on your budget, you could also consider the 3-2-1 backup strategy: https://www.synology.com/en-global/d...on/data_backup |
Thanks ronson, I've been looking into Synology for NAS, Looks like i might be up for a bit of coin to setup properly, but, you know what they say; buy once, cry once. I'm hoping to go for a NAS setup that can give me some speed and data redundancy, I'm swimming in murky waters here, so theres a bit or learning to do.
Still a toss up between WD or Seagate for me, I've always bought Seagate, but I believe that WD has a lower failure rate.
Cloud storage is proabably the hardest one to choose, I want something that has good reliability and expandable storage, fast access, and well priced. even better if the server farm is onshore.
I think my intentions with the NAS and the cloud backup should get me a 3-2-1 backup without too much trouble.
