Ah ok. So basically what I was thinking. Use it for basic file storage. Ty!
I had a 2 bay system years ago and was always fighting space.(Of course then 4TB drives were cutting edge so....) I moved to a 4 bay and found it much more useful as I was able to store more data with better throughput.
Then a couple years ago I upgraded to a 1019+ so I could run 5 drives with one hot spare and it ran great for a year and half and then one day, it crapped out. I contacted Synology support and after a couple of days of back and forth they ended up sending me a replacement unit. I was able to pop my 14TB drives in and it worked great.(Make sure you put them in the right order!)
For me the deal killer is a 90 day warranty.

My MAIN PC, and all my other home pc's have 16gb ram, my smartphone has 6gb ram, my IPAD has 3gb ram!
NASCOMPARES which reviews NAS's you might want to look at for NAS in 2024.
If all someone needs is basic network storage, this NAS works fine. Besides, at $110 what do you expect?
I second this. We use them extensively at work, and I wanted one for home, so I bought the 'J' model to save some $. It works, but I kind of regret not saving more and getting a '+' model.
I've got a data point as well. I still have my first NAS, Synology DS410 (it's not Internet facing) .. I think my drives are twice the reported maximum drive size.

These days you can get an N100 micro pc for 160 that tanscodes and is far more versatile, so not really seeing the use case for these anymore.
