Hi
I have today set up DS120j (with 4TB) and wanted to make sure it's properly set up with folders/volumes, etc. but as a newbie and despite reading many articles and watching videos, I feel like I need a better understanding.
The NAS will mainly be used for backing up for myself and my partner (two Macs, two iPhones):
Is Synology Photo app necessary for the iPhones? I did a quick test and while it nicely retained certain details like location, I don't see the option for face recognization so wonder if there's an approach to work around this limitation (tags, maybe?).
Any other tips or gotchas I should watch out for?
Many thanks in advance!

The NAS will mainly be used for backing up for myself and my partner (two Macs, two iPhones):
- Copy/move files from our Macbooks to the NAS (not just to free up our harddrive space but also as backup for old photos and documents)
- Photos on our iPhones to be backed up to the NAS (so we can free up space in our phones and iCloud!)
