What's the best storage options for me?
I'm looking to store all my photos and videos taken with my phone, GoPro, drone and two cameras I use for photography. My storage is all over the place and I want to organize/simplify.
Here's what I'm hoping to accomplish:
All my pics and videos start out on my phone for editing before they get stored away eventually to a drive. Instead of plugging in and manually transferring from phone to HDD I'm wanting to back them up wirelessly from my phone and have them end up on a drive at home. I'd like to replicate copies to two or three drives at home when that happens. What do I need to achieve this? I'm imagining that 8tb would be more than enough space for me.
Get a NAS. Unless you are tech savvy and dedicated get a Synology. You can get another Synology or hook up a USB drive for backups.
To backup and manage your photos you might run Immich in a docker. Although some people also like Synology's own solution.
If OP does not know what docker is, Synology Photos is good enough to do everything described above. Including doing it for several users. Add Synology HyperBackup to that for the backup stuff and they are golden :) I’m doing it myself and am very happy with the solution.
