Just make sure never, ever to buy from them again.
It's the same story as Synology with their forced reliance on specific hard drives.
As long as there are still other providers out there...
- system2 5mo agoSynology works with any hard drive. I bought a new unit and installed WD drives in it. No issues.
- fenykep 5mo agoThey did revert this because of public backlash: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/10/synology-caves-walks-back-some-drive-restrictions-on-upcoming-nas-models/ https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/10/synology-caves-walks...
- RIMR 5mo agoThe point is that Synology tried to vendor-lock their customers for profit, and even though they didn't follow through, they told us what they stand for, and it is now considered ill-advised to buy their hardware because of that.
- system2 5mo agoWe tried nearly all vendors, nothing is as polished as their Ui and software.
