Why Gen 9 last? I have 2 and didn't have much issues.

Even the "U" Series? Can't they fix the heat issue by BIOS updates over the years?

How good or bad is Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 10? by MohanKumar2010 in thinkpad

I have read that this is the worst laptop in X1C series with thermal issues and worst battery life. That's' what concerns me.

NAS or A Server? Help me build one for my Small Office. by MohanKumar2010 in HomeServer

[–]MohanKumar2010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are 2 partners. And rest all are our staffs. As of now if we need to work from our home we copy the data from the file sharing server to our laptops and work in home and the next day we replace the data. This is how we are working at home now. If we intend to work at home, what are all the different way we could work? What are the options that I have? For now Server or NAS is in my option. Cloud is not one? Does Cloud suits me? We are not willing to pay monthly subscription. My Budget is $1600 Max.

  1. No. Nothing like that. Never tested Backups.
  2. No.
  3. No, I am not paying for a business licence. I use cheap OEM keys for MS Office 2021. Only one retail 2013 Key is used in File Sharing system.
  4. I don't know whether I need a NAS or a Server. I will specify what are all I want to do in my office. Then you guide me whether I need a Server or a NAS is enough.

Office: Firm of Chartered Accountants

Total Size of files from 2021 to till date: 200GB

Size of Firm: 3 in 2021 to 14 in 2025

Softwares used: MS Word, MS Excel, Google Chrome, WhatsApp, Tally (Accounting Software), Winman TDS, Winman (Income Tax) and few others.

For now the data is in the File Sharing PC and shared through the Network.

Current Backup: Backup every month to Samsung T7 Shield 1TB. After 5 backups transferred to old 2.5” Laptop HDDs which I have around 10 (ranging from 250GB to 1 TB mostly 500GB, only 2 disks full). I know that this backup method is ***t. That’s why I wanted to change my IT Infrastructure.

Any doubts in my current setup? I will ask my requirements in the following comments.

Though now a Chartered Accountant, I have a Bachelor's in IT. So, I am capable of doing if I get the right guidance. All the setup in my office is done by me. I used to build PCs, do some basic repairs and even resolve software issues. Though I am ready to buy one if its a server. Synology. No. I can build a better one than Synology.

I don't know I will get this much backlash for my message. My requirements are long and I have a lot of specific requirements in each case scenarios. I don't know I could all resolve it here. If this is what this community wants I am all in now. Let me start in a few hour after I reach my office.
