Synology could bring “certified drive” requirements to more NAS devices

Reply in thread

It’s not too complicated but you don’t get some things for free like with Synology. It require work to setup scripts for offsite backup for example whereas Synology has a backup app with a UI.

For storage, I used to run ZFS in a raidZ2 configuration. If you do this then I suggest having a cron job running a script that can alert you if the pool is unhealthy. This is again something that Synology does for free.

You could also look up trueNAS core and see if that’s something that fits for you.

Which password manager to use?

Most here won’t like this answer. 1Password.

I’ve used it for years and it just works well for me. Finally convinced my spouse to also use it a couple of years ago. Switching is not an option since it took years of convincing to make that happen.
