Bending the DS1823xs+ to my will. - robothunter - 04-24-2023
I got myself a DS1823xs+ for better or worse, I'm not sure yet. I feel like I'm in a battle with Synology just for the right to use this thing how I want. I was able to migrate my storage pool from my plus series in order to get SHR on this thing. My wife loves red but I find green to be more calming so I used the syno hdd script to turn my unverified WD Red Pro 20TB drives from red to green. I had two 1TB IronWolf 525 drives installed and I was surprised to see the option available to set them up as a storage pool instead of just caching. I created a RAID0 just to test it out and they are working great. Unfortunately I've only got 1.8TB's of usable space and my speed is slightly limited.
My question is:
If I buy two 1TB SATA SSD's could I create a storage pool (RAID0 or RAID5) combining the two NVMe drives and the two SATA SSD's?

No, you can not combine them two. It used to be allowed to combine HDD and SSD, but DSM 7 changed that.

That's what I thought. Thanks for verifying for me.
