Hello!
I have been thinking of buying/building a NAS system. What I want from this device to be able to access fairly large amounts of data (around 2 TB) such as photos, videos, project files, etc. on many devices, whose OS cover both Windows and OSX. This is why have been thinking of getting a NAS. However, I would also like to back-up my MacBook on this device, which probably means installing time capsule on the device - I am not really 100 % sure, to be honest.
Is there a machine that would cater to my needs? Can I build a NAS myself and somehow use it as simple storage and back-up for a Mac. I have built PCs before, that is not a problem and will gladly do it if it suits my needs and is more price-efficient.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
