Rescued the drives from the trash, all functional, less than 1 year old. I am looking to set up a multimedia server and NAS, but I need hardware suggestions. Looking to keep the spend here under $600. The synology drive bays are giving me some sticker shock. Was planning on using TrueNas.

Honestly, it depends on where you live. In toronto, there are occasional local ads on kijiji or fb marketplace which list it for that price.
