I'm looking to buy an ~8TB NAS* for my home office (I guess it's called a "private cloud").
I want to connect to it from Windows, Linux, Mac, Android, and iOS.
How can I ensure that the network storage is encrypted at rest (and ideally in transit and in use)?
It occurs to me that I ought to understand how to accomplish encryption before I start looking for which models to consider buying.
On my Mac I have FileVault enabled, and on my Windows PC I have Bitlocker enabled.
*maybe something like this, but I'd need one that works with Windows, Ubuntu, and can more reliably handle Mac Time Machine backups. Basically, my goal is to replace my loud desktop and its drives with a quiet, power-efficient storage device. But I don't want to sacrifice encryption.
