Hello, I am dealing with situation about upgrade of my home storage, used both for home apps (media backup) and small business (NVR storage, business projects storage/sync). I dont need extraordinary power, I dont need overpriced rack NAS solutions although having couple of racks at home. I started with Synology 12+ years ago, had 2 and 4 slots units, very soon upgraded to 8bay and stayed there till now. So it was 1812+ till 1821+. Now having 8x18TB Exos Raid6 in 1821+ and running out of space. I was considering another 1821+ but although fine model for me, it looks a bit obsolete these days. I wrote Synology at the beginning of this year about successor, but they simply dont care. Couple of weeks back I found 1825+ leakage so I am waiting patiently but nothing is happening, nobody knows anything. Also I hate Synology nonsense limit 108TB per volume - this obsolete limitation should have been lifted long time ago for higher models I think. Wait for 1825+ or try Ugreen 8bay? Thank you.
