Synology to enforce use of validated disks in enterprise NAS boxes. And guess what? Only its own disks exceed 4TB

Adelio

I have a DS414 and a ds1819+ at home, they work a treat

I have gradually added drives and swapped out smaller drives for larger as i need the space.

The thought of having to replace 8 hard drives at one time just for some extra space would be a nono for me, i just use SHR instead of Raid 5. Slightly less performance probably but easy to use.
