Topics
Stephen Hackett:作为一名Mac用户,我推荐使用Mac Mini作为NAS的替代方案,因为它具有文件共享功能,并且可以运行各种应用程序。Synology也是一个不错的选择,它是一个独立的网络存储设备,可以运行自己的应用程序。但是,Synology最近在认证硬盘品牌方面遇到了一些问题,需要注意。 David Sparks:我之前使用外部SSD,但最终还是选择了Ubiquiti的U-NAS Pro,因为它只是一个装满硬盘的盒子,我可以通过Finder连接到它。我通过Mac Mini将其备份到Backblaze B2,并且对这个设置非常满意。我个人不需要NAS像媒体服务器一样,我更喜欢简单的文件存储。 Dan:我是一名软件和平面设计师,拥有千兆以太网和Google Fiber的Wi-Fi。我的文件管理在外部SSD上,还有Time Machine和Backblaze。我想讨论小型高级用户可以负担得起的NAS选项。
