Newegg is offering the TerraMaster 2-Bay Quad-Core 1GB RAM NAS (F2-210) for $119.99 shipped. Down $30 from its normal going rate, todays deal beats our last mention by $7, which was in 2019. It also marks a new all-time low that weve tracked. This NAS is perfect for those who are just getting started with network attached storage systems, as it allows you to combine up to two drives for up to a 32TB capacity. It can utilize both 3.5- and 2.5-inch drives, and is compatible with either SSD or HDDs. Its fully compatible with Docker, cloud drive syncing, backing up, and remote access. That means you can use it for things like Plex, running your own cloud storage server, or just handling smart home tasks. Rated 3.9/5 stars.

Todays deal is honestly among the best pricing that weve seen for a 2-bay NAS. For comparison, Synology has a2-bay NAS for $170 with 512MB of RAM, and even WDs single drive3TB My Cloud is $160. Sure, the My Cloud comes with 3TB of storage already, but thats the maximum it can support, since you cant easily replace the drive in it.

Not sure how you could employ a NAS in your workflow? Blair has done just that, except with 80TB of storage and multiple computers. Its a fairly full-fledged setup, and well worth the read if youre wanting to get started with setting up a homelab.
