Does anyone have a NAS enclosure/drives to recommend or warn against? I assume they're all much of a muchness but I thought I'd ask in case someone said 'Never get a Pigfuck brand, it shagged my cat and salted my crops'.

@ephemeromorph cheapo western digital ones are poo.

I went with synology, never had an issue with it.

@nikki @ephemeromorph I've got a synology box with two 4TB WD Red drives in it.

It's been running for years. I should probably think about swapping those out at some point.

@guffo @nikki @ephemeromorph As someone who lost a huge portion of his digital life to a drive crash, I strongly recommend doing so. You may not get a warning that the drive is gonna fail; I sure didn’t.

@gregly @guffo @nikki @ephemeromorph I once thought that a SMART status change for a drive would give me a week or so to order and wait for a new one to arrive.

That was a mistake.
