Advice requested! Looking for a simple, affordable, two disk (mirrored) NAS.

main use:
-network file share there via our laptops (Windows, Linux). Just basic drag & drop is fine. Preferably without dedicated software.

-serve media (via our AndroidTV box).

nice to have:
-access to music (.mp3 .flac) on phones (iOs) while outside our own network.

-outside access to files.

User level: am not an idiot but value my time and our money. Am happy with basic products.

@Pepijn I would go with a Synology or Qnap unless you want to roll your own with an old pc or something. Should be able to setup raid with SMB share and then they have apps for things like Plex / Jellyfin or just Kodi using the file share.

You can even run docker containers on them nowadays.
