Comment on Synology could bring “certified drive” requirements to more NAS devices
AustralianSimon@lemmy.world 1 day agoGrab one of the 8 bays now, this won’t affect anything currently released. I don’t see me having to retire my 1813+ or 1819+ (both 8bay) anytime soon and both are 4+ years old without a hiccup.

Why bother with that? That’s gonna be $1000 just for the box alone, and still lock me into the Synology ecosystem.
I can build a NAS with more capability for less than that. Like taking a Jonsbo NAS case and have the freedom to do whatever I want with it, with plenty of space to move everything else I’m running over to that as well. Even their N5 would likely be less expensive, and I’d have room for 12 HDDs and 4 SSDs then.

While I agree with the doing whatever you want on a custom build I very much doubt the reliability as per my comment here.

Personally I’ll be moving to rack units when these finally kick the bucket.
