Need advice should I create a shared folder or use home folders for my documents? This is what I want to do. I want to move all my documents to the NAS and use it like a Microsoft One drive \ Dropbox. I want to be able to get to and share the same documents on my laptop, desktop, and phone. Should I use the home folders for each member of the family or create shared folders in the name of each family member and move their documents to their own shared folder? Also QSYNC how should I set it up for both concepts?
 
Both may fit but if I do it I would create one shared folder with read and traverse permissions only for all users, then a subfolder per user and R/W permission only for the concerned user.
