I'm sorry, I can't say for certain as I've never used a multiple drive setup with basic. I will say you'd probably want to keep the volumes separate in case one fails you'd only lose the data on...

On Synology devices you'll want to use SHR, here's a calculator, and why I suggest it is because you can mix and match drive sizes and get the most out of them, unlike Raid5.

I actually throw all the docker users in a MediaUsers group to avoid permission problems, HOWEVER, using one docker user would work too (just don't place them in the Administrators group)! :)

For the 4 phones 2-4 tb will easily have you covered for 5 years worth of photos and videos (unless they are doing hours and hours of video). The PCs will depend on how many and how big/full are the...

New to NAS, planning to get the 4 bay but wondering how much storage to get. Of course if I had unlimited funds, I'd max out on TB but I have kids and bills to pay. I'd like to run a RAID 5 across...

If you can afford it go with the 4 Bay. You can always start with 2 drives and add to it later. If you start with a 2 Bay... you're stuck with a 2 Bay.

Then get the 4 bay when you need it. You can sell your 2 bay and upgrade to 4. Unless you have unlimited pool of money put your money towards larger disks than more bays because the most expensive...

If you are not sure you need 4 bay you don't need 4 bay.
2 Bay is sufficient for home usage. You get 1 disk redundancy. You can slap a 12-16TB disk on it and be good for a long time unless you are...

yeah but the person might go crazy and go after SSD based NAS in the future instead of adding more HDs to his 4bay NAS :)

Yes, and that would be the plan to start with two (or maybe three).
But the 4-bay will also accept 2 large HDs with space for more down the road.

Depends on how much storage you're going to need and how much fault tolerance you want. Bigger ones tend to have better processors too
