Since it seems like some folks are responding to the headline here, not the actual article:
Btrfs was never supported nor advertised to be supported on these lower end devices. But, it seems like if you created the btrfs drives on another device that did officially support them, you could then import them onto the unsupported hardware platform.
Still, its a bad look for Synology. Seems like the lack of btrfs on the lower end devices was merely artificial product segmentation, not an actual hardware limitation.
