I’m glad my video was helpful! When it comes to expanding your Synology DS918+ with the Startech Dual M.2 SATA-600 cases, there are some important points to consider.
These adapters won’t show additional drives individually in your NAS. Instead, if you use an adapter with built-in RAID, it will appear as a single drive to your NAS. This means you can set up the drives in RAID 1, but they will be recognized as one combined volume.
This could still be a great way to expand your storage, but just keep in mind the limitation on how the drives are presented to the system.
