Hi !

I started my selfhosted journey with a synology nas. But the nas was crap, so I ended using it only as storage and backup solution, providing NFS shares. I added SBC like raspberry pi, then upgraded it to a elitedesk running debian.

I would like to upgrade my nas to a more powerful device but I’m also considering adding a sata extension dock and rely only on my elitedesk minipc instead of two devices.

Can I get remarks and advices?

Thanks!

    So, as a NAS then.

      Yes. But actually: another independent device (and if so a custom one running freenas? Or another synology?) or just a sata extension for my minipc?
