    I dislike writing these articles, but here we are. According to HardwareLuxx, Synology is on a rough course with generations-old sub-par NAS hardware and now appears to be locking its NAS units to its own branded hard drives in its upcoming 2025 Plus models. This is a shame since a few years ago, Synology had neat hardware.

    they didn’t have neat hardware they had reasonably good software and played nice with any HDD

      They were very convenient and made the nas into an appliance. But the hardware was never that robust. Just came in a nice package with easy to use software.
