For optimal data protection, keep the default RAID 1 configuration to mirror your data across both drives. Use Synology's Hyper Backup to schedule automatic backups to external drives or cloud services. Install the Synology Photos and Video Station packages to organize and stream your media collection. Connect the NAS to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to prevent data loss during power outages.
