Hi all, I have a very simple homeland which consists of just one thinkcentre mini pc. I don’t really need extra storage at this moment, but I think adding another disk for redundancy will be nice.
The problem is, the mini pc only has space for one hard drive. What is the best thing to do in this case? Is the a reliable way to add an (ideally, with space to add more later) extra disk to it? I don’t really want to get something like a Synology as I’m happy with the processing power etc. of this. Some way to expand the storage as directly as possible will be the best.
To add simple storage you could go with something like this: https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0BQ6SHNP1?
I was blown away at the cool design (the case and cover are the heatsink, you install it with a thermal paste pad inside - how cool is that?!) and how inexpensive 1TB m2 cards are now.
If you want expandable storage, then maybe a NAS?
Husband set up one a year or so ago and it has been really cool. Easy to back up and access anything on it.
