I’ve been pretty happy with my Synology NAS. Literally trouble-free, worry-free, and “just works”. My only real complaint is them getting rid of features in the Photos app, which is why I’m still on their old OS.
But I’d probably build a second NAS on the cheap, just to see how it compares :)
What OS would you go with if you had to build one?
I ended up getting a Raspberry Pi 4 and the Argon Eon case. It all goes through one USB 3 channel however, and for some reason I am stuck at 10MB/s transfer speeds even though USB 3 standards support much more.
I would like a SBC which supports SATA. I suppose there is a the Raspberry Pi CM4, although there’s no cases for it to support multiple drives

This. And build my own instead of going with synology.

I’m happy with synology too for the most part. But I like a bit more flexibility I’d probably build one and use truenas or unraid.

I’ve got the argon one v2 with a m2 drive. Works well haven’t tested speeds. Not used as a nas though.
