Hi Guys,
Was wondering if you could help me please. I've been concerned that I've been running a DS920+ now for a number of years without any real backups beyond RAID5 so have just acquired 8 x 16TB Ironwolf Pro drives from ServerPartDeals while in the USA.
With the intention of putting them into a RS1221+ and backup to the existing DS920+ albeit without backing up the entire new capacity.
It seems the Synology is now very old and is due a refresh as well as limited, 1GBE etc...
Is it unwise to look at something like a Terramaster U8-500 Plus and stick a couple of boot NVMEs in it and run TrueNAS or Unraid? Or am I asking for trouble?
