I currently have the storage in my pc (for games and such) plus a synology ds418. I’d have to figure out if there’s somewhere synology lists which raid format I used, because I don’t remember, but I’ve currently only got 2.26tb left free out of 26.1tb total on it. The nas is primarily movies & TV that I use through kodi and plex with a little bit of other stuff stowed on it. I’m trying to decide how to handle my next round of storage expansion. If I bought bigger drives to put in the current enclosure I’d still need to make use of the current drives. And if I moved the current drives into a new bigger enclosure and added more drives I’d have the 418 to use still. So, I’m thinking that maybe I should just buy a 2nd 418 or similar enclosure and just split the two of them. But I’d love to hear any other suggestions for what some of y’all would do in this situation.
