The EX2 Ultra is a real NAS drive that could come unpopulated (without hard drives) so you can install your own storage or take up to 28 TB right from the manufacturer. If you want to combine the ease of use we’ve all come to expect from WD devices with a power of true NAS storage, take a look at the WD My Cloud Expert series. Powerful: Western Digital My Cloud Expert Series EX2 Ultra It goes from 2 to 8 TB in storage capacity, can save all your information via WiFi automatically, allows remote access through a My Cloud app, features shared folders as well as individual volumes, and is capable of streaming to Sonos, Google Chromecast, and more - all starting at just $159.99. Still, My Cloud Home encompasses all the attributes of grownup NAS drives without the price tag. Western Digital doesn’t even call this network storage a NAS drive but rather addresses it as a personal cloud storage device. When you just want to graduate from an external hard drive to a network attached storage for Mac, there’s no better candidate than WD My Cloud Home. So let’s look at the best NAS for Mac on the market in 2021, covering every target audience segment.

NAS (or network attached storage) in many ways is just the right answer for those who want to upgrade from outdated external hard drives and beginner My Cloud app look-alikes.Ī network attached storage device is not only capable of wirelessly storing everything you’ve ever created (they generally start at about 2 TB) but also divide its capacity between a few people (so every family member could have their own drive, for example), stream media to Apple TV or Bluetooth speakers directly, and act as a central hub for all storage, with all your other hard drives connected to it. Today, most of us need a robust and expendable home cloud storage solution that’s able to protect our data seamlessly in the background. This 2HDD model might just make the cut.But with the explosion of smartphones and streaming services, the amount of media data being saved on our devices has greatly exceeded what regular hard drives can offer. Thanks for sharing about the new DS212J, many Mac friends asked me to help them with similar setup but were setback by the cost. Will give it a few weeks to see if they solved the fan idle issue.

However since the last update on DSM3.2, I have not encountered the overheating again.
Synology's support has been very responsive and offered even to swap my DS411slim. When you login again, the system shutsdown for overheating. The only downside which I have read in other blogs is when the DS411slim goes to sleep mode, it appears the fan is idle rising temperature on Disk#4.
Even upgraded to Lion and soon after the upgrade was available.

I nonetheless went for it, added 4x 1GB HDD (WD Scorpio Blue) and the setup and software DMS 3.2 was just a breeze. 4x 2.5" HDD (laptop HDD) which means I can have up to 2 disks failure in RAID mode (I stick to 1 Disk failure config since it is personal use) and quiet like a church on a Monday hence using 16W only! The downside is the price. I started to look at 2HDD solution but then came across the DS411slim. I have little space in my office and all the 5 HDD NAS became to me a no go solution. I checked other similar products and yes Synology DS1511+ looked very slick but again too big. After I visited the shop I was a bit let down by the design of the housing and felt it was bulky.
First as mentioned I was attracted by Drobo FS NAS solution. Just a quick update on my seach and selection.
