I'm about to start building a HTPC and I'm trying to decide on a NAS to share my media. I have around 2.5 TB of media so I would probably need 4TB to be safe for at least a year or two. I need something that interacts well with XBMC and windows since I would use my current PC to transfer media to the NAS. A WD MyCloud with a 4TB drive is around $200 and would seem to be enough for now. I was alsp thinking about the Synology 213j plus a 4TB drive for around $380. Is the WD enough or would the Synology be a better option? Or would it be overkill?
