Have a DS212+ that I'm growing very impatient with and very much appreciate your informative reasoned thoughts even when understanably speculative.
btw: I'm probably going to wait for DSM 7 (DS22x+), not for what it can do when released, which probably would work with a DS218+, but for what it may be able to do in 6 years that a 218+ may not be able to do. Plex and other apps won't run anymore on my 212+.
Also, I have been unable to find meaningful information on performance, even from Synology on the difference in a 218+ vs a 212+. I see hardward specs, but what I want to know is when I open something like file manager, will I still have time to go get a cup of coffee or will there be a maeingful, not incremental, improvement.
Again, thank you.
