What software do you use to automatically sync smartphones and computers to the NAS? I want to backup my devices like you.

[briankelly]

I would really like to see more about home networking, thank you!

[tinasheguni]

I'm sold on this idea. This sounds incredible !

[tobythomas]

Great run down! I would love to see more about this topic: Building you own NAS, Enclosures, Drives, set-up. Also how does RAID work into this. Thanks!

[nannetteaustin]

More, please. I didn't want the video to end.

Speaking of price to performance for google's data backup or making your own, you could spend very little money by just using an old PC that may already have enough storage in it and then you could make a NAS.

Thanks for the intro. Good info. I'm ready to take it to the next level.

[marcoontingco]

interesting. would like to hear your recommendation like for beginner/personal, streamer/content creator setup. thanks.

Can you tell us more about security? I want to switch to a NAS but I am worried about what potential threats accompany this method of storage. I would want to store sensitive information on mine. But if that opens me to serious potential risks, then the change wouldn’t be worth it.

I have a Synology NAS that I use mainly for backups and as a Plex server. I'd love to see a video on other uses for a NAS in a home or home office setting. Also, if you have any good video recommendations for linking one NAS to another over the internet and/or a VPN for remote backups, I'm all ears (because the Synology documentation on setting something like that up is limited/poor).

U woud definitely love to see more home networking videos

Great video. I will setup my own home network storage now for games etc.

[ProgressiveTruthSeekers]

Yes, what are the best NAS available in 2022? And the cost.

[Onedayrenee]

Hypothetical question. If I could run programs directly off of the cloud system then couldn't I download a software onto the system and use it on any computer?

Excellent review for a novice about to jump into this very deep pond!

Do you by chance have a video on how you managed to get your phone's data to auto backup to a NAS?

[nscian]

Great video, can you do one on how to set up a NAS so I can use it from anywhere. I use a Terramaster cloud storage solution and I want to be able to access my files from anywhere using my file browser.... Anywhere (not using the crappy app the company provides) with that being said, many of the tutorials are confusing for setting up port forwarding. I want it to be a TRUE cloud so if I go on vacation I can back up my phone wherever I am.

[shreyasgowda]

Best idea for old photos and videos. Just upload to YouTube

[wandelynmatos]

I would like to hear more about the tools used in your NAS for a better automation specialy for Android Os Backups for Pics and Videos just as Googe Photos.

So basically NAS is a huge RAM memory that has a spare saving memory in case one of them get spoiled; plus it connects to the internet.
