Tell Us About Your Configuration! Which NAS and Drives?

I have three synology units right now. I run no docker software on any of them.

I have a ds1821+ that just has tv and movies on it. I’m currently using 13 of 61 TB.

I have a ds918+ with a dx517 attached. It has two storage pools, one for each device. The 918 is used for backing up photos and music. The 517 has a complete backup performed nightly of the 1821. I’m currently using 14 of 38 TB.

And last I have a ds220+. It’s a small guy full of personal documents, info and work cheat sheets. I’m using 2 of 9TB.

I use a r610 dell blade server to download files and use handbrake to encode them onto the hard drive.

All units are in a purpose built server room in my garage complete with air conditioning and insulation. See pics

The units

The server rack and room (it’s messy, what server room isn’t?)

And finally the room has become a late night hangout and we have painted/ drawn on the walls in uv reactive paint so the whole thing lights up under black light

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk

Edit: huh only one of my pics posted. Oh well

Thanks for starting! I’m another refugee from Reddit.

I have two:

• DS220+ – 2x8TB Seagate Ironwolf Pro – primary device, running a bunch of containers including Plex (of course) and some actually useful ones like Paperless-ngx.
• DS214se – 2x4tb Western Digital Red (CMR) – backup target for the other one, i will be sending it to my dad to be my off-site. (I host his off-site at my home; the DS214se was a hand-me-down/gateway drug.)
