I want to replace my aging Synology with an Intel N150 based NUC. I mostly need it for #Plex transcoding and to act as an #Apple Time-machine NAS for 2 laptops. I tend to larger sized setups so that I can keep them running for 10+ years.
I plan to keep it off the internet. I am planning to go with 16GB ram, 500 GB SSD and then probably attach a 2TB old school hard drive via USB 3.
I am looking for manufacturer recommendations (are there any European options?) as well as OS recommendations.
