Hello,
thank you for all the videos and comparisons, they helped me a lot to drill down my options.
However, I'm still a bit uncertain with the final decision.
I'm looking for a Synology NAS, as Active Backup and BTRFS are key factors here.
The NAS is intended for backing up Windows, macOS and a couple of linux servers, as well as pulling in data from Google Drive/Photos.
There is a small amount of videos but nothing that requires transcoding and I'm not intending to use Plex.
I already have about 4TB of existing data and 4 Seagate Ironwolf 4TB drives from a pevious NAS project.
For connectivity the connecting devices support 2.5G and I'm considering adding a non-managed 2.5G switch to my network.
I want to keep the option to host a few services locally, but not extensively.
I'm currently looking at the 923+ or the 1522+. Especially the latter for the additional RAM and network ports as well as more headroom for future disk (maybe even ssd) additions.
Best regards and thanks
