New NAS

This Christmas, treated myself to an upgrade of the NAS from a WD MyCloud to a Synology DS218j, with two hard disk bays and built in RAID-type redundancy. Things I’m enjoying so far:

  1. I can swap in new drives to increase capacity in the future.

  2. The drive has a full OS I can access through a web top UI, with apps that can automate downloads and backups

  3. A media server I can access from VLC and my browser - it transparently downloads media information.
