Probably should replace my Drobo soon.

I have a 2017 Drobo 5C DAS (5 bays) hooked up to my 2014 Mac Mini running all my media and backing up all my files.  Which normally is all good - I had a drive die on me a couple months ago and the replacement was super easy.  BUT Drobo went bankrupt, and now I'm nervous the whole thing is going to go bust and I'm going to be up the creek.

So, I need NAS (or DAS) recommendations.  I need something well priced and easy to use (basically plug and play, I don't really have time to learn a lot of anything).

Thanks in advanced.

Hi, Synology is a great choice, in my opinion.

Synology are plug and play but they are super expensive for what you get. It would be well worth your time to build your own system and learn to use UNRAID, TrueNAS or Open Media Vault.
