Hi

I'm new here, I'm trying to build my first Nas but I don't know how many disks to buy. I probably go to 4 disks because I want something like raid 5.

Have some questions like if my board die can I have access to information on the disks with raid? Or do I need to buy the same hardware to have access to the information on the disks?

If I go to raidz can I mount new Nas with different hardware same configuration on true nas can I mount the pool of disk and see the information and work normally?

One thing I have more doubts about, can I add more disks in both?

What do you suggest raid or raidz for my case?

After all the questions I know I need backup of all its in disk in different place.

For the specs I have: gigabyte z390 M gaming, i5 8gen,16gb ram(I rich 😅), M2 256gb and for the case jonsbo n4.

Thanks for all the help
