(So that would be two 10tb hard drives mirroring each other.) Someone suggested that I get a QNAP Tr-002 system (example: <a href="https://www.newegg.com/qnap-tr-002-us/p/N82E16822099076?Description=qnap%20tr-002&cm_re=qnap_tr-002-_-22-099-076-_-Product&quicklink=true">https://www.newegg.com/qnap-tr-002-us/p/N82E16822099076?Description=qnap%20tr-002&cm_re=qnap_tr-002-_-22-099-076-_-Product&quicklink=true</a>). Does anyone know if that is a good system? It is less expensive to get two independent single 10tb external hard drives and use a mirroring function available as part of Windows 10 to mirror the two drives but someone advised me not to trust Windows 10 to do that. Also, I was thinking of getting SAS drives instead of NAS drives, but that is apparently a different types of system and I don't know much about that. Any thoughts on these things? Also, if I do get NAS drives, which ones are best? Thanks in advance.<br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:trebuchet ms,sans-serif">-Vincent<br></div></div></div>
