So I've recently figured that with all of my media on my 2TB drive (Windows 7 on 60GB OCZ Vertex) that I'm walking on a very fine line with no redundancy back ups. I shoot quite a bit of video for work and such and all though thats backed up, I still have a bunch of previous stuff I never really bothered to back up.
I looked up a bunch of NAS set ups (Drobo, Synology, Patriot) and a lot of the time it's hard to compare all of the modes. Some of the models are dated and some don't have X or Y and I'm finding it pretty overwhelming.
What I need:
Preferably a 4 bay but I'm thinking a 2 bay (2x2 TB) will suffice.
I want to be able to access the files over cloud and at home and not just have them files mirrored and backed up at home.
BT client enabled
Are 2TB Greens generally shunned upon or is it in my interest to invest in enterprise drives and call it a day? Last I heard they parking feature in the greens kills the drives.
I was looking up this on RFD:
[Comp] NCIX : Patriot Javelin S4 4-bay NAS 194.99 + 4.98 shipping APM, after 75$ MIR - RedFlagDeals.com Forums
PM Newegg to NCIX to get it down to 269, then use NCIX's MIR to get it down to 195. I heard the interface is pretty crummy but it doesn't seem bad for a 4 bay NAS + all the fixings. Worthwhile to put more money into a Drobo or QNAP?
Any other suggestions would be very helpful
