dear friends, good day,
well its a storage thing: the question i have is: should I set up a NAS or should i to the cheap way:
just add hard drives to a desktop to increase my storage?
I want to expand my storage. Previously I had just 400 or so GB off my hard drive for example for popular movies I wanted to stream.
Well - i guess in these days no one would add a Hdd to a PC would one!?
Well - my use-case: i have lots of movies - and i want to store them some how.
would ou do this on a extended PC (where i add some more HDDs)!?
and yes: Looking at reviews it seems they have a horribly high failure rate. This is very very bad.
So the question is: Would it be worth my time to just remove files I never touch from my old externals or what would you do!?
look forward to any and all ideas of you expert guys
cheers
