Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution

If I understood you correctly then you basically want each NAS to have two storage pools.
Pool1
- bigger pool
- only your data
- part of a distributed storage across all NAS(?)
- backup 3-2-1 Pool2
- smaller pool
- shared to the home network it is a part of
- backup 3-2-1
Is this correct?

There will probably be several pools. Each household will get a private pool. Then there will be a shared pool for stuff like family photos. Finally I’ll have the second drive as my own pool. So there will be 4-5 pools on the small drive.
Each NAS will be identical so all data is mirrored to each one. That way if a NAS dies or something worse happens like a house burning down, we won’t lose any files.

A mirror isn’t a backup, are you sure you don’t want to use something like restic?
You didn’t specify if your pool should be a distributed one or one individual pool per nas.
