Regarding lack of innovation: They still haven’t made the jump to NVMe.
They have things with two slots, which I guess is good enough for raid 1, but those models also have HDD bays, which wastes space in network closets.
I’d expect them to have something with 4-8 incredibly well-cooled m.2 slots by now. The nic is only 2.5G, so the slots wouldn’t need to be full speed.
I’m happy with my ancient 2TB synology NAS, but it’s bigger, slower, noisier and hotter than my mini-pc, which also has two (toasty) nvme slots.
