I got a deal to get a NAS for like $50, just the empty nas no storage really good deal. I want to get storage for it to store all my games, vtuber assets, and my recording assets + back up photos for my moms iphone.

I just don't 100% know what type I should get. I plan on buying used and found some 8tb HDDs for cheap on marketplace, but the NAS can run Sata SSDs so would that be better long term?

I plan to do a raid 6 config, and buying 4x4tbs ideally. If i find a deal for more storage somehow used I'd go for that.
