Hi,
I would like to buy a NAS for my home.
The most important point for me is the performance of file transfer, however, I know that once Ill have the NAS I will also want to use its advanced features.
I was planning to purchase My Cloud Mirror 4TB (Same as EX2) for ~250 USD, but then I found the Synology DS215j which seems to have a little bit lower READ performance but better WRITE performance and MUCH MORE features with the DiskStation Manager OS. The price of the Diskless version is 200 USD and 2 WD RED 2TB hard drives cost 92 USD each. That means the the Synology will cost 385 USD.
My question is - What do you think? Is the DS215J better? Is it worth the ~150 USD difference?
Thanks!
