This is the strange middle ground where it&amp;#x27;s closer to professional than &amp;quot;budget&amp;quot;, by quite a bit. At some point, only a tiny tiny fraction of users need 40TB of space. I guess what I&amp;#x27;m saying is, this isn&amp;#x27;t so much a NAS as a specialized youtuber video recording appliance. We have a number of home-hosting users on our platform that run entire racks filled to the brim - and while that&amp;#x27;s awesome - it&amp;#x27;s just not what &amp;quot;budget&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;NAS&amp;quot; implies, and it&amp;#x27;s an extremely limited audience.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Building a fast all-SSD NAS on a budget</title><url>https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2022/building-fast-all-ssd-nas-on-budget</url></story>

You can put $200 on top with a 2TB NVMe SSD as cache.&lt;p&gt;The reason to question this is that 40TB seems small if you want to have a NAS for small video editing studios. And for personal use, you probably not going to need more than 2TB work set paged in at any given moment.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Building a fast all-SSD NAS on a budget</title><url>https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2022/building-fast-all-ssd-nas-on-budget</url></story>
