Replacing a Synology DS115j - shameild - 01-27-2025
Hi
I am getting concerned that my Synology DS115j is getting old and ought to be replaced before it actually fails. I purchased it in August 2017 so it is 7+ years old.
It was my first NAS and at the time was an experiment in digitizing CDs. Turns out the experiment was a success and I am now committed to maintaining my music library on a NAS in FLAC format.
The DSM seems slow, but I can live with that. I am okay with the single bay because I run Cloud Sync to backup my music to OneDrive...unless there is a better way.
Should I replace the DS115j now or can I wait until it actually fails?
