Black Friday is here, and that means now is the time to stock up on additional hard drives and make the switch to a new NAS enclosure. The best NAS enclosures are already on sale, and we've rounded up the best NAS-focused hard drives.Black Friday NAS deals:Deals now liveNAS enclosuresInternal HDDInternal SSDWe haven't seen as many new NAS enclosures launching as previous years, and there's a good reason for that. The global semiconductor shortage has affected the NAS category as well, with brands like Synology choosing to limit the introduction of new models. That said, most of the late 2020 launches will get exciting discounts, so that's something to look ahead to Black Friday draws close. In the meantime, we're rounding up a list of NAS enclosures that you should take a look at during Black Friday.Best Black Friday NAS deals now liveQNAP TS-453D-4G 4-Bay NAS (save $110)$440 at NeweggThe TS-453D-4G is the ideal choice for Plex 4K transcoding, and with 2.5GbE...

WD makes a lot of hard drives for NAS enclosures, and the Red Plus series is the ideal choice for most home users. The series features CMR drives for long-term reliability, but because they spin at 5400RPM and come with a three-year warranty, they're not as costly as the Red Pro drives.The 4TB Red Plus usually retails for $120, but you can get your hands on the drive for just $69, $51 off its retail price. This is easily one of the best value you'll find for hard drives, and I'm astonished the deal hasn't sold out at this point. That said, there are just a few hours left on this deal, so if you're yet to pick up a NAS hard drive, now is your chance to do so.To give you some context, the 6TB drives are already sold out, and the 8TB variant is now available for $283 — four times as much for double the storage. So yeah, this is an unmissable deal if you just bought a NAS enclosure or need to add more storage to your home server.WD Red Plus 4TB NAS HDD (save $51)$69 at Newe...
