RE: Suggestions for "Budget" expandable 4TB NAS drive

If you are looking for a cheap and easy solution, use external USB HD’s
E.g. a WB My Book 4 TB set you back E 160,-
The Auraliti can connect to 3 of them.

However, USB is limited to 5 m max so you probably have them in your listening room (noise)
A NAS can be placed anywhere so outside the listening room.
Today’s NAS offer a lot of functionality: http://www.synology.com/en-us/dsm/index/software_spec#overview

As you buy a computer, a NAS is more expensive
Synology DS214 + 8 TB =569
