I am using a 2drive readynas 2tb nas from last 8 yrs. it’s yet to fail or fry. I am very interested to upgrade to high capacity but higher capacity nas is very costly affair. I feel it’s better to spend on other things. As far as sound quality goes, I have preferred local usb connection over nas but nas is also okay.
people are too much worried what will happen if both drives fail in a nas. the possibility is as low as having an earthquake and getting buried underneath or plane crashing overhead. If someone wants enterprise level disaster recovery, then probably hiring google storage is better option. One more option is to have two identical nas boxes and schedule a periodic sync. ideally The other nas box should be kept in a different room, house, city, state, country, continent and planet ( maybe galaxy) with preference in increasing order as i listed. People who look for such redundancy do not care about costs involved.
for people who dont have such money but domt want to spend on nas box, buy two harddisks and configure them in raid, it could be in a computer or even an rpi. I really wonder why nas boxes cost so much.
