Care to fill me in on what that’s about?
I could Google it, and I’ll do that if you tell me I’m a moron and that’s what I should do. I don’t want to be an imposition, I’d just rather hear from someone who know what they’re doing firsthand.
No worries. NAS is “network attached storage”. It’s just a small computer that with a handful of hard drives that are exposed to your network.
In the current context, it’s a suggestion to host your own media and access it via Plex or Jellyfin.
But it can do far more than that. It’s a great place to backup photos and your other computers. Synology also comes with a lot of pretty great software out of the box, including a full replacement for Google’s “office” suite.
I started with the 5-bay model and it’s been serving me great for years.
