Thank you for reaching out! For your needs of backing up two Windows 11 machines and two Apple devices, with a budget of $1200 and a storage requirement of around 30 TB, I recommend considering the Plus series from Synology:

Synology DS224+: This is a great entry-level option with a dual-core processor, 2 GB of RAM (expandable), and supports up to 32 TB of storage. It's ideal for home use and can handle multiple backup tasks effectively.

Synology DS423+: This model features a more powerful quad-core processor and starts with 4 GB of RAM (expandable). It supports up to 32 TB and includes additional features that improve performance, making it well-suited for your backup needs.

Synology DS923+: If you're looking for even more performance, the DS923+ is an excellent choice. It offers a quad-core CPU, 4 GB of RAM (expandable), and supports up to 80 TB of storage. This model also includes NVMe slots for SSD caching, which can significantly enhance access speeds for your backups.

These Plus series models provide a reliable and efficient solution for backing up your Windows and Apple machines, while also offering the user-friendly DiskStation Manager (DSM) software you may already be familiar with.

For storage, consider using larger drives (like 10 TB or 12 TB) in a RAID configuration to ensure redundancy and protection against data loss.
