Can I use non-synology drives (i.e Seagate) in Synology SHA dual RS1221+ setup? - csjones - 01-09-2022

As stated above, I am considering a Synology SHA dual RS1221 setup.
My question is - is it an absolute must or just how important is it to use only synology drives (and memory)
can i use Seagate drives and Kingston memory?
The $$/GB difference is very substantial.
any advice and/or input would be appreciated
I really like the system but the drives (and accessories) makes the price substantially more - could be a deal breaker for me
