Synology or QNAP - Enquiries - 05-02-2025
I am concerned about the cost of synology but having had one since the DS216J came out I love the brand. The cost of hardware tie in to synology brand concerns me.
I wanted to have 16 - 32 gig RAM because of the VMs and for the same reason I wanted to put at at least 1 NVME in the device.
I am trying to build a private cloud so I can get off public cloud.
Is considering QNAP really worth it instead? or should i stick with synology? Can I safely use compatible hardware on the 925+ and is there RAM and NVME that synology recognises as safe (no warnings) without hacking the device?
