DiskStation DS925+

Maybe they found a problem. Synology branded hard drives refused to be installed in DS925+ units with non-synology branded electrical fuses in the power cord. /S

Good, they deserve to be drug through the mud. Prosumer home devices like the DS925+ SHOULD NOT have bullshit restrictions like this. Let the user decide on the "risk" they want to take running "non synology" drives. Fucking insane.

Here's the direct link to the relevant information: https://www.synology.com/en-au/compatibility?search_by=drives&model=DS925%2B&category=hdds_no_ssd_trim The line "Synology does not guarantee compatibility with listed products" is hilarious considering it's exclusively their own supposedly validated dr

I dont know why they want to screw home users over like this, this is nothing more than greed. I think they're really screwing themselves with this change. I know my DS923+ will be my last Synology NAS unless a major change happens. I dont see the value anymore, the DS925+ cant even have 10GbE , lik

If you feel you deserve some freedom of choice, and are still okay paying d

I suggest you reach out to an IT company that can help you set this up, but at a minimum a DIY solution needs to be a NAS with a second NAS or cloud storage as backup (the latter of course will get very expensive) I genuinely recommend a 4 bay Synology like a DS925+ kitted out with 4 24-30TB drives

There's no real distinction there. More info: https://kb.synology.com/en-us/DSM/tutorial/Drive_compatibility_policies If thi

I have a DS925+ and couldn’t afford 2x16GB so kept the original Synology 4Gb ram in place and added a confirmed matching Crucial 16GB RAM. ECC unbuffered DDR4 etc. No issues in 2months since installed
