First up, love your site, ween watching for years. I have a Synology NAS DS916+ with an expansion. After watching your video regarding the Ironwolf Pro update from NE to NT, almost all of the compatible discs are not compatible. They suggested Pro NAS 12TB ST12000NT001 - I wanted to add a 22tb. Any advice?

Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m glad to hear you’ve been enjoying the content for years.
Regarding your Synology NAS DS916+ and the compatibility of hard drives, I recommend checking Synology's official compatibility list for the most accurate information. Generally, all SATA drives should work with your NAS, even if they are not listed.
If you use a hard drive that isn’t on the compatibility list, you may see a warning in Synology’s Storage Manager. However, the drive should still function properly. Additionally, there are scripts available that can help disable these warnings if you prefer a cleaner interface.
