Love my synology, I’ve been using it for 12 years now. I will upgrade at some point to latest 4bay version

Second Synology. Mine has purred along for years, low power (30 watts 4 hdds at high load) and easy to manage with containers.

Everything is fast thanks to an SSD and caching m.2. I max out 1gbit over SMB.

Snapshots have saved potential days/weeks worth of troubleshooting in total and is a must have. Cold backups are easy with Hyper Backup.

I couldn't ask for more.

I used to have a QNAP and replaced it with a Synology, but I was actually a little disappointed with the software when it came to the disk management. I had a funny collection of disks capacities and Synology has fewer options when it comes to volume spanning and RAID.
