At the risk of starting another backup vs uptime storage war...

Anyone use the Western Digital My Cloud EX2 NAS here? I'm running off twin 3tb drives right now in USB 3.0 enclosures where one is copied to the other as a mirror nightly using SuperDuper. I also have offsite computer to computer backup using Crashplan to a different location.

I'm wondering if anyone has worked LR, PS, and FCPX off this NAS? I know how fast USB 3.0 is and don't have a problem running off those externals but have been looking for a way to unify things a bit.

Ah never mind! I just purchased a Synology DS213j from Newegg. Price was too good to pass up and it's more powerful (and cheaper) than the WD and the Synology DS214se I was looking at. After all my research and reading, Synology just made the most sense for me.
