## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there an app available that allows one to automatically backup photos and videos from a mobile device to the home network?**
A: As far as I know, it is not possible. Access the fotos from your phone is possible via Synology Photos

**Q: Can I use 2-4TB SSD and use JBOD to get 8 TB storage?**
A: I would say no. 
Using 2 4TB drives will only give you 4TB storage as one of the two drives is a mirror of the first one for fail-over. This is the purpose of NAS drive system. Synology website will explain the configurations in more detail. There are several excellent YouTube videos online to get more detailed information.

**Q: can you run plex off this to stream home videos?**
A: Yes, you can install Plex and run a media server. I am personally using Kodi but both function just fine on the Synology NAS.

**Q: Is your ds223 nas compatible with seagate 8 tb ironwolf harddrives?**
A: Yes, this is exactly what I have in my NAS DS223. 8GB seagate iron wolf. They work really well.
