Field notes
NAS Camp uses a trail-and-basecamp structure to organize a large storage reference site, with categories ranging from first-time setup to ZFS tuning, replication, and operations. Its calculator copy preserves practical caveats: the capacity estimates exclude filesystem and metadata overhead, while the power estimate depends on measured average draw and omits several external costs. The page also foregrounds recovery planning rather than treating redundancy as a complete safety strategy.
