Topic	Does anyone use NAS for file storage?
DDP886 03/27/24 4:10:33 PM #4:	Trumble posted... I've been thinking about getting something like that, although so far a 5TB external hard drive has done everything I'd need from a NAS (upgraded a few years ago from a 2TB, more due to it showing signs of aging than due to space concerns). Next time that needs replacing I might have a go at setting a NAS up. Only issue I have with external hard drives is u gotta baby the shit out of em or they get fucked up. General rule of thumb life span 3-5 years for spinning drives/three copies of all ur data. I hear good things about repurposed server drives so I may look into those at some point. For drives with such heavy usage- no bad clusters is pretty good --- my signature <cite>DDP886 posted [p:979594441] in Does anyon...
