  • my new file server

    Producers

    • synology.com (preferred)
    • qnap
    • drobo (good, but too expensive)
    They all offer some kind of flexible disk mirroring with non-identical disks resp. disk sizes.
    Main criteria:
    • mini tower, not rack
    My colleague’s good advice: Use Samsung disks!

    Apparently “they all” have hardware compatibility lists, i.e. they don’t work with every disk.

    I think, it will be this one: Synology Diskstation DS213+ NAS System 6TB (2x 3TB WD Red für NAS WD30EFRX). This is the one I got today.
