nas for my work station pc?

orze

im a 3d modeler for a living.

and honestly been running out of space on my pc.

i really only need a place to put files on and i see allot of NAS hard-drives going for a nice price for great capacities! 

i know nas has anti vibration and all so they live longer and honestly i dont mind if its abit slow has again i would use it to store files like fbx files and such i more or less just click once to open.

is that a good idea to get a nas?

or is there a better option?

You can just add more drives to your desktop, if only you need the space on your desktop

 

How much space do you need?

14TB is a over kill(and price) and again i dont care for speed as i REALLY will only pick files up from it sometimes like saved work and such so a load in and froget idea.

also im not american if my broken ass english didnt show it allready xD

 

so i cant even get the drive u sent me to start with.

let alone 300$ i DONT NEED it that bad were talking about 150mb files not gonna fill up a 6tb drive in like 2 years.....

This is anouther smr drive, but if you want a cheap 6tb, its a good pick. Since you don't care about speed(smr makes some writes very slow) its a good pick

But I think smr will work fine here.
