Need dependable NAS solution or some another answer.
Need to share pics & video files with 3 of my adult children and other family in 3 different states. They will all record their own family videos (7 grand kids) and I will be the sole video editor for everyone.
I have never used NAS before. Here's some possibilities:
Seagate Personal Cloud 2-bay Home Media Storage Device 8TB NAS STCS8000100 2x4TB $379.99
Would be 1st choice but reviews are not that great
Western Digital My Cloud Mirror Gen 2 4TB 2x2TB $299.00
Netgear ReadyNAS 202 --- PC Mag Editors Choice but sold with no drives
Buffalo TeraStation 5200DN (2TB) $482.99
Canon Connect StationCS100 looks beautiful but it will not accept edited video files, which is the main thing I want to do with it. Also would need to buy 5 of them instead of one of the above.
At least 3 of the homes have Verizon fiber optic. Since this is such an important task, don't mind spending a little more $ for dependability & better quality.
Probably no 4K or streaming. Just a central location for storage and retrieval of pics & HD videos shared among distant family members.
Thank you! Any and all advice would be much appreciated.
