I am about ready to take my first plunge into the NAS world with this NAS set up as RAID 1.
Western Digital My Cloud Mirror Gen 2
My use will be storage for photos, music and video. I would also like to store backup images from Macrium Reflect. I have a couple of questions. My home network has four Windows PCs and one Ipad Air 2. One way I could configure the NAS would be with a directory for each device. Another way would be with one directory for each user (with sub directories for each PC). I don't know if either option could be used on a NAS. Any advice will be appreciated.
As for backup images, I have no idea how NAS would handle that. I assume the NAS storage would show up as a place to store the Macrium image? Again, I would appreciate any advice about PC backup to a NAS HD.
Regards, Jim
