I was hoping for more of a discussion on the data integrity side of things. One of the biggest reasons I run ZFS is to help ward off bitrot. My understanding with most if not all COTS NAS devices is they lack any scrubbing or data integrity tracking, much less ECC.

Most NAS devices come with raid, scheduled data scrubbing, integrity checks, some with ECC.
The Synology DS923+ uses ECC RAM. That's why I bought it.
Synology does data scrubbing
Well then I learned something new today. Time to take a look at their offerings I guess :)
