Use cases
Start from a storage problem you recognize.
These are editable baselines for planning capacity and recovery—not prebuilt hardware kits.
Family photos
Protect a growing family photo library
Plan capacity, a redundant primary copy, and a separate recovery destination before photos outgrow scattered drives.
Open editable baseline →Media library
Plan a Plex and media-library NAS
Model media growth, usable capacity, bay pressure, and recovery boundaries without treating the array as the only copy.
Open editable baseline →Self-hosted homelab
Plan storage for self-hosted services
Separate application data, databases, snapshots, and backups before choosing a pool layout for a growing homelab.
Open editable baseline →NAS expansion
Plan an existing NAS expansion
Check whether replacing drives, adding bays, or starting a second storage target is the cleanest next move.
