Devonthink handles the syncing to NAS, and it also provides many other features for managing and organizing documents. I don't have the discipline to organize all my documents in folders. So instead I put it all in devonthink where i can easily search for document content or dates. I have documents for the past 10+ years that i can still find with a few keystrokes. But Devonthink isn't free and if you'd rather self-organize on the file system and search via spotlight, that works too. I actually didn't want any of my documents to be searchable via spotlight. When i want to search for documents, i use devonthink -- i like that everything is in a separate place. I also don't want my kids to do a spotlight search and find important documents that could be nuked. So separating them was a feature for me.
