Comment on Beginner looking for advice on open-source NAS hardware and OS for self-hosting

I suggest you have 2 separate physical devices.
1 - a NAS 2 - a server that you’re running everything on.
Use OMV for the NAS if you’re not technical enough / want less maintenance and just keep your data there with only a backup app installed,
On the other device pick whatever you’re comfortable with, docker is the mainstream choice, you’ll get loads of youtube / forum / lemmy support, but there’s other options of course.
The advantage to this setup is that you can backup your server and if when you f*ck up you can restore it again.
Less eggs in more baskets
And as others have said, look at your router & internet security too
