DS1825+

you are not doing anything with a 4 drive NAS. the suggestion below of the 1821+ is a good suggestion if the DS1821+ was still being made, but today it's the DS1825+ or DS1823xs+. And for these models, you have to use Synology branded drives, which are double the price of a Seagate EXOS or Western D

Good morning. Your "Synology rep" - really ? using an iSCSI LUN has nothing to do with remote editing. For your simple application - all you need to do is connect via the built in SMB network protocol, which is both on your Mac (and any office PC) and the Synology. To do professional video editing,

As much as I love Synology DSM as an operating system, while also really appreciating the modern hardware and nice build of the Ugreen models, I could never switch until Ugreen comes out with the ability to expand storage with their own line of expansion units and new NAS models, like Synology has h

Exactly. See comparison between UGREEN NASync DXP8800 Plus and DS1825+ here. You can use Xpenology on Aoostar NAS. Or on your own build/hardware. Whatever you choose. I would highly recommend ARC loader since it's modern, versatile and easy to use. Take a look at it's FAQ and you'll see. IMHO whatev

Have the N5 non-pro and use Xpenology to emulate Synology. Works perfectly fine. All hardware is recognized and RAID sets are available. The N5 thinks it’s an Synology DS1825+ 👌🏼

The Synology DS1525+ (V1500B quad-core, 8GB, 5x3.5" plus 2x M.2) with the H10 Mini 10GbE adapter is US$910 The TS-h666TX has one less bay but has dual 10GbE, TB4, PCIe slot, and the convenience of the front-mounted M.2/E1.S carriers. It slots under the TVS-h674-i3 (i3-12100 4C/8T) which is $1799. Th
