Hard Drive Upgrade RN314 NAS
Does this NAS unit support the Seagate ST22000NT001 harddrives?
That's why I have the mirror copy of data on my computer as I do on my NAS.no need for redundancy
I am starting to download in 480p now quality is good and file size smaller.

I could throw 4x20TB drives in it and do X-RAID, so that's 60TB of space with 20TB redundancy? 1 drive fails you are ok but 2 you have lost everything?
Correct. And later on, you'd need to upgrade two drives to a larger size to increase capacity. Then upgrade the others (one at a time). If you always are adding drives that are at least as big as the largest you already have in the NAS, the volume size is computed by summing the drives and subtracting the largest. So if later on you had 2x30TB+2x20TB, you'd have 70 TB. 3x30TB+1x20TB would raise that to 80TB.
RAID redundancy is a good thing, but as I think you already know, you still need backup to protect against data loss.
