Any suggestion on how to set up storage solution?
My mom currently has an external hard drive connected to her computer, but it looks like it's about to fail.
I think I should get a new storage solution, and I would like some recommendations about how to structure it.
My mom is the one who needs the most storage, to save photos, videos and music. The rest of the family members don't need storage as much, and internal storage on the computer of each is usually enough. So I think just picking up a 1TB external hdd and replace the current failing one would be enough as a bare minimum solution.
But if it doesn't cost to much extra, I would like to set it up so that the storage space can be accessed by everyone, including by mobile devices.
I've been hearing about NAS for a while, but haven't really done a lot of research about it. Is this something I should look into?
Help would be appreciated, and if there are any more details I can provided about our situation that could help you help me, I'd be happy to provide them.
