I got one of these in December and i still haven't bought hard drives for it because they've been so expensive. They all seem to take ssds though so i might just start there and migrate when drives get cheaper.
I put 2 used enterprise class HGST drives and 2 new Toshiba drives. Running really good. Especially with the 2 2.5Gbe ports with SMB multi-channel enabled.
Synology only recently upgraded a bunch of their NAS with a single 2.5Gbe port but they are still using celeron CPUs.
The only drawback I see is that the N100 CPU on mines is very warm. The heatsink on it is tiny but some had success applying better thermal paste and getting 5-10 degrees C less.
I like the fact that they keep adding features and are actively developing the OS and apps. It's been less than a year though so I don't know when software support will slow and eventually stop. They just released 2 more models with better CPUs but for AI stuff. Like using AI on device to organize your files/photos.

Do yourself a favor and build or get a different brand.

Their software is great, hardware spec is just okay, security and service is decent compared to QNAP. I don't really know how Asus or Terramaster is, and Buffalo or WD users seem rather not very vocal...
a friends said UGreen (he was a backer) was buggy AF, and mentioned service is subpar - but supposedly both are better now but not at Synology or even QNAP level.
Also, I dunno how many looking for 2 bay NAS on sale would really spend money on 2.5GbE switch and NIC's or run enough dockers to need 8GB of RAM?
