Need advise on NAS storage

[soreloser]

did u get the bundle with hdd or just the device itself?

Just the device, I bought 2x 4TB seagate ironwolf from Amazon for $180 during the sale

I'm a complete newbie too.

Is it possible to access my nas remotely? I heard singnet will block the access..i believe mine router is the one that people say not to get.

yes

router is not the issue

ISP is.

if you are on cgnat you'll need software like tailscale or zerotier

tailscale looks good but all need to explore. I already got permission from wife to spend a little on a basic 2 bay ugreen nas..I don't need too much storage just around 2TB , so I can get 2x2TB for the cheapest ugreen nas (dh 4300 plus) .

Right now I only use around 300gb all photos/video of kid.
Main use is from once a year overseas trip where I will take a lot of videos on my phone in raw format and need to grade it and edit it for personal view/hobby). So remote access is important if I were to cancel my 2tb google sub which i'm now underutilizing it.
