After six years, it was time to upgrade my old Synology NAS. The drives were a bit newer, so I could keep them. Of course, I watched tons of tutorials on how to migrate, but it was a breeze. It's really just a matter of transferring drives and you're done. The DS225+ is fast, not exactly quiet (with the ventilation), but certainly acceptable.

I initially ordered a QNAP, but that was typical Windows hassle with installation and the graphical interface. This is a breath of fresh air and the "Mac" of NAS for home users. It works well with a Mac, and I can access my data from anywhere with Synology Drive Client. I can even access it on my phone via their app. And thankfully, they've removed the odd "you have to use Synology drives otherwise it won't work" feature. I now have Seagate Ironwolf drives in it, and it works like a charm. A bit more expensive, but you get what you pay for.

I had a Synology DS207+ (from 2007), unfortunately it was no longer visible in Windows 11 version 24H2 (too old unfortunately).
