    Question Thinking about a NAS for home use ?

    I will look into a 2 bay model, maybe the DS224. While it may be nice to have the 4 bay model, in my situation, a 2 bay would be more than enough with a couple of 6 or 8tb drives. By the time I do need more than that, would be past time to upgrade I am sure. If I get a 2 bay model and get 2...
