Hello,
I'm looking to setup a small NAS in order to backup securely documents scans on my home network.
In the past, i've used a refurb pc and some 3,5" 1T hard drives (not rated for NAS use) with unraid but it's not efficient for my use and can be a bit loud (i live in a small appartement with no rooms).
I don't want to spend money on an enclosure like a synology box.
My ISP box have the possibility to house 4 2,5" disks and to setup them in RAID (and even deploy VMs on it ), i can't put my old hard drives in because they're too big.
I have two old 250G SSDs (different models, one samsung, one sandisk) and i'm wondering if it is reliable enough or if i'm better off buying the cheapest 2,5" NAS rated hard drives, also the box is not very well ventilated.
Thanks in advance for your advices
