Should I Buy A NAS or RAID Hard Drive Enclosure?
Hello forum members,
I am just debating whether I should buy a NAS RAID Enclosure or just a regular RAID Hard Drive Enclosure.
For the NAS, I was looking at the Synology DS412+ ($600) or the DS1513+ ($800) or the Drobo 5N ($500).
For the regular RAID Enclosures, I was looking at the Drobo 5D ($600) or the Mediasonic ProRaid ($190)
Why should I buy a NAS? I need this for backing-up all of my files (movies, music, documents) and photo-editing (Photoshop and Lightroom). Plus I am using this to back up my tens of thousands of images.
