Hi community,
i´m currently thinking about buying a new NAS. I have about 10TB of data and ran out of space on my old NAS.
I would like to set up a device with two volumes:
1.) The first volume should be something like a productive NAS volume. Here I would like to store images and stuff I want to access via internet and stuff that is changed more often.
2.) The second volume should be something like a "Data grave" (is that an english word?) where I would like to store things like movies and stuff I back up from my PC. here I would like to use the cheaper Seagate Archive v2 drives.
My question is. Do you think that´s a good plan to use two volumes? Would it be better to have to NAS? Is every disk spinning up when I get access to one of the volumes?
I´m currently favoring the Synology 1815+ but maybe there are arguments for a Qnap solution?
Thanks for your input.
Best,
Stefan
