Hello Arelor!

 A> I can't talk about the Synology. Word in the street is that
 A> Synology is the Apple of the NAS world.

You're the 2nd person that has mentioned such a thing to me.   
So.. it's best to stay away from Synology boxes if the hope is  
to install DIY NAS software?


 A> I have an old Bufflo LinkStation which is supposedly a
 A> superior unit to the LS220 you linked. It is fine for a
 A> budget unit but you are going to bring it to its knees if
 A> you try to apply heavy load on it. I use it for storing
 A> backups.

A two-bay would be good enough for me to start with.  And 4TB  
(2 x 8TB, RAID 1) would be plenty.  I too primarily just need  
to store clone-images and basic backups.
