I want to create a NAS for my family at home. I am already pretty sure about using TrueNAS as software, but the hardware is still open.
What hardware do you recommend for 2TB of usable Storage (+a second drive for mirroring the first one) that is used by 3 people for pictures, videos, and documents?
Probably just go with SSD storage because 2T is fairly low for hard drives these days. Still a pretty good idea to do a mirror.
Pretty much any CPU that isn’t a raspberry pi will comfortably max out a gigabit Ethernet connection.
Also have a backup plan.
HDD has 100x the storage capacity vs SSD. What are you talking about?
What decade do you live in? It’s closer to 2-4x nowadays, and 2TB is nothing
OP asked for 2TB and that’s easily done with SSD these days
…What are you talking about?
