Help choosing/confirguring NAS


Memory is getting cheaper, so I thought I could start converting my LP's to digital files, storing on NAS for playback.  I see WD My Cloud double drives are pretty cheap, but I quickly find that Windows 10 does not detect these drives on Windows 10 network.  Reading further, I see that Windows, for security reasons, no longer detects devices like this.  I am not sophisticated about computer issues.  Can someone explain and give some suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

Storage is now more affordable for personal use.
Storage / Memory.
HDD more than SSD.
SSD drives greater than 1TB are still relatively costly.

If you are seriously considering NAS.
Think more along the lines of storage.
As stated a Network UPnP can be as simple as an app / device.
File size determines requirements for gear performance and capacity.
NAS / Servers typically have multiple bay configuration for backup redundancy.
Two to Four TB capacity HDD is a good starting range for capacity.

Windows can be a bit fussy.

I use Asustor and WD Red.
I can recommend these.
Asustor offers a large range of NAS / Server models.
And a well developed user interface. ADM.
