Good purchase man, good purchase. footprint on table is small. footprint on power bill is smaller than your previous server.

You will run out of space fast. I went from 2 to 4 and now 8 slot NAS.

QNAP TS-853a is what I got now with 24TB. Wait till you get into digital photography and buy a high end DSLR and DRONE!!!

That is when the fun begins. @Rab just got his drone. When he starts to realize those 4k records take up space..... well......

:P

Do love it so far
Easy one click copy to external source
And simple to use

Am definitely ready to expand then the time comes.

 

Grabbed a 2tb WD "My Passport" drive that allows me to offload memory cards straight to it (has an inbuilt card reader and about 10hrs battery life and can be used as a portable battery pack to charge other stuff).

 

No need to worry about firing up the lappy to offload the days shooting now - just stick the cards into the drive and let it grab them all.

All are then nicely sorted for when I get home to copy across to the PC.

 

My only issue now is realising that I forgot to press record on the controller for the drone (accidentally push the wrong button at times - turning the recording off) 😞

Don't need much storage space if you forget to take the vids to start with :P
