Sasha excellent step by step. I ended up going with teh Asustor 6704 (same model with some extras to the 5404). Now my astrophotos are all happy in one spot. Thanks !
At about 11:47, you are talking about Raid 1 and ext4 file system. Then at 11:57, your screen shot has BTRFS selected and Raid 5 selected. Can you provide an explanation of what happened here or maybe do a follow up video?
Regarding ssd. If I want 2 ssd as cache and the other 2 as storage but don't want raid1 because not bothered about backup on another one, which raided option should be used. Raid5?. The setup would be 2 x 2tb ssd as cache 2 x 4tb ssd as storage 1 x had 6tb as storage Primarily to use system as Plex server. Thanks. AJ
RAID5 needs at least 3 HD/SDD of similar size to work. To not doing any backup, use RAID 0. BTW, have a look at Jellyfin before moving to Plex, as it is free and works great!
I hope that this model is more reliable than my ASUStor AS4002T which died a little after 3 years since purchase, and just out of ASUStor warranty. I am now looking at other brands as I was not happy with the support from ASUStor.
Well, I promise you, as soon as I own this room in reality and do not have to make my videos from the basement anymore, I will not use virtual backgrounds anymore 🤣 But thanks, good feedback, I will try to upscale the background, this might help when zooming in.

I've been running a Synology NAS for about 6 years now. It works great, but I'm almost out growing my 15tb. Also, you still need to back up your data!

For the SDDs, use RAID 1 and Ext4. For the HDs, use RAID5 and BTRFS.

Sasha, man, I love your videos, but sometimes the virtual background is, well, annoying. Plus blurry on the close-ups, even at 1080/50.
