Comment on Best external SSD for high-uptime use?
MalReynolds@slrpnk.net 1 year ago
A NAS is a standalone device that uses low power and solves your problem, but is expensive (synology, openNAS etc) an external drive is not a NAS it’s an offline backup (a worthy thing, and perhaps your priority for data integrity / an actual backup). As Asked, get an external USB3 caddy for drives and any well reputed SSD, Crucial, Samsung ,etc…

Ah right it seems I made the assumption that Network Attached Storage meant any storage attached to my networked device haha, thanks for the clarification. I like this idea, forgot about the option of USB drive caddies. Thank you!

Which is kinda correct.
Set your SBC up to run something like TrueNas or OMV6 and you have a DIY NAS.
