Silent file corruption

Do you do regular data scrubbing to verify data integrity? Have you touched (replaced or upgraded) RAM recently? I used to have DS920+ and while it was great due to having iGPU and video codecs, it lacked ECC support for RAM, so I got rid of it for DS1522+. Don't forget all data goes through system

Synology press release regarding changes to HDD compatibility

I have had a DS1513+ and now a DS1522+, so I have been using a Synology NAS of some sort for 12 years. I think this is their polite way of leaving the consumer space and moving to enterprise. I'll just transition fullly to Truenas when the time comes. I already run it for my backup NAS anyway... I w

Purchased DS1525+ - I will never buy another Synology device again.

I just (today) bought DS1522+ (instead of 1525) as I have no time to migrate to different system now, but for sure, this is the last Synology device I bought. I will most probably migrate to Ubiquity disk station (7 HDD slots for approx 500-600€), and sell all my Synology NASes. I am very happy with

Price increase might have just happened on an older model in the US (DS1821+)

Yupp my DS1522+ is 100 bucks more now. So happy I bought two last year.

Synology starts selling overpriced 1.6 TB SSDs for $535 — self-branded, archaic PCIe 3.0 SSDs the only option to meet 'certified' criteria

Just picked up an 1821+ after waiting years for the 1825+ to release. Pulled the trigger on the 21+ with the intention of making this the last time Synology gets any of my business. Only wish I'd had the time to commit to migrating from my aging 8-bay to a new manufacturer, but replacing my backup a

What are the chances that Synology will impose HDD restrictions on all models with DSM 8?

I think they can not do that for older devics. It is big question mark if 1821+ will ever get DSM8. It started with DSM6, got DSM7 and maybe will never get DSM8. I wish I am wrong, but I am thinking my 1821+ will not get DSM8. I am speculating also that DSM8 may be about platform sealing (xenopology

Will a 28TB IronWolf Pro work in DS220?

I just loaded 2x 30TB Exos M drives in RAID1 into DS1522+, which didn't exist when DS1522+ came out. So far so good, I even had one unplanned abnormal power outage while I was writing data to the volume on those, no problems. You should be good as long as the drive is SATA.

Who’s got the oldest operational NAS still carrying the load as initially intended.

DS412+, bought in January 2013. Still using it, but as a backup for my DS1522+. It's no longer getting any DSM updates. So glad I bought the DS1522+ in 2023 with the shenanigans with Synology branded drives for the newer models.
