Synology DS2411+ vs QNAP TS-659 PRO II

RenRen

The Synology DS2411+ & QNAP TS-659 PRO II are roughly the same price. Im not sure which one should i get so i was wondering if i could get some advice between the two. I read some basic spec sheets but im still wishy washy ><. Im aware that qnap tend to overprice their quality products so is the DS2411 more of a value pick?

That price is mental. Would never spend that. I myself have a HP Proliant Microserver, it outspecs nearly all the NAS boxes and in the UK is only £125, it out performs NAS's over 5x the price. Love mine, best thing I ever bought, I run WHS 2011 on mine but there is a wide range of OSes to chose from.

Not sure about OZ prices.

So im going to buy the Synology DS2411+ after much thoguht due to double the storage capacity compared to the other ones and fit Seagate Constellation ST32000644NS 2TB's into it. What kinda raid should i be thinking about to maxamise space and redundancy?
