Custom NAS Build Specification Service

Get a Custom NAS Build Designed for Your Use Case

You know what you need your NAS to do. You are not sure which hardware, drive configuration, and software setup actually delivers it reliably.

Custom Build Spec is a flat-fee consultation service. Describe your requirements, budget, and environment. We design a complete, tested NAS build specification from scratch and deliver it as a structured PDF within 5 business days.

What Is Included

• NAS model selection with rationale (brand, bay count, processor tier)
• Drive recommendations with compatibility verification
• RAID and volume configuration for your redundancy and capacity requirements
• RAM spec and upgrade path if applicable
• Network configuration (switch, bonding, 10GbE where relevant)
• Backup strategy and off-site replication plan
• Software and app recommendations for your use case
• AU-sourced pricing from Mwave, Scorptec, and PLE

This Service Suits You If

• You have a specific use case (video editing, business file server, surveillance, Plex, self-hosting)
• You want a complete specification before committing to a purchase
• You have a budget in mind and want to know what it realistically buys you
• You have already researched NAS but want a second opinion before spending $1,000+

What Is Not Included

• Phone or video calls. This is a written specification service
• Ongoing support or implementation assistance after delivery
• Enterprise rack-mount or SAN configurations
