Synology (FINALLY) Gives In to 3rd Party HDD Support in 2025 PLUS Series NAS
7/10/25 – Updated with information supplied by Synology on how verifications and product ranges will support different HDD/SSD in DSM 7.3
Of all the stories of 2025, very few had the level of impact on the NAS industry that the Hard Drive support policy change by Synology did. Arguably THE name in the world of turnkey NAS, Synology enjoyed a fairly spotless reputation up until recent years, but when their gradual first-party support stance took a very drastic acceleration in April 2025 with a complete lockout of HDDs from Seagate and WD for their 2025 generation of hardware, the industry responded very, very unfavourably (Ed – understatement of the YEAR). Over the months that followed, even some of the biggest tech platforms and consumer rights focused media outlets on the internet made damning statements about the brand’s actions, previously very Synology-friendly outlets either criticised the move or simply ceased covering Synology, and even typically heavily supportive Synology-associated platforms such as the Synology subreddit and yes even here at NASCompares were keen to highlight every inconsistent turn of this story. After six months of heavy fire, undoubtedly poor sales of the 7–8 released Synology 2025 generation hardware launches in that time (eg DS925+, DS1825+, DS425+, etc), repeated missteps by the brand in user engagement (such as disabling comments on videos, contradictory press statements and baffling justifications around hardware)… now… NOW the brand has announced that you will once again be able to use Seagate and WD Hard Drives on the Synology 2025 generation of devices – and importantly, this time without the level of shouted alerts and warnings. So, let’s discuss when this WD and Seagate Hard Drive media support is coming back, what are the limits, is this too little too late and whether all this was ever worth it for Synology.
When and How Will Third-Party Hard Drive Support Return to the 2025 Synology NAS?
Synology has detailed that third-party hard drive support will return to 2025 devices alongside the rollout of DSM 7.3, the next major update to the Synology software platform. Unlike previous statements earlier this year, this U-turn now means that Seagate and WD drives will not only be usable again but also with a significant reduction (possibly even complete removal – still awaiting exact testing of DSM 7.3 ourselves) from the constant “unverified drive” and “at risk” warnings that plagued users. This represents a return to the compatibility model users were familiar with before 2025. Exact rollout dates of the DSM 7.3 update are still pending (likely Q4 2025 or early Q1 2026), but this will mark the point where Synology’s 2025 NAS systems no longer block unsupported drives at installation. Until that update arrives and users proceed with it’s installation, Synology 2025 systems will of course still not allow unconfirmed media to initialise DSM. Likewise, it remains unclear how the update will interact with users who have already employed community scripts to bypass restrictions – whether these fixes will still be needed, or whether DSM 7.3 will overwrite them entirely.
Another important detail is how far this reinstated compatibility extends. According to Synology’s new position in the DSM 7.3 rollout, users will again be able to initialise DSM, create storage pools, volumes, run disk checks, expand pools, perform RAID repairs and create hot spare disks – essentially restoring the same functionality that was lost earlier this year. Crucially, the obtrusive warning messages that previously accompanied unsupported drives will be removed, which means the user experience should be indistinguishable from older Synology generations. Synology has stated that testing of specific Seagate and WD drives was still “ongoing” in the last 6 months, but this appears largely academic now, since DSM 7.3 will no longer enforce the same restrictions. Which brings into question the validity of those claims. In practice though, this means users can once again choose from the wider drive market, without fear of blocked features or disruptive alerts. It is still not 100% clear on what the position regarding M.2 NVMe SSDs and Storage Pool use will be, as well as if this is going to be completely brand wide – or just affecting the PLUS series new and old that are eligible for the DSM 7.3 update.
The Alerts and ‘Warnings’ that users have gotten used to up tll now (i.e pre DSM 7.3 roll out):
To confirm, the current 2025 systems that primarily this Synology U-turn on Hard Drive compatibility in DSM would affect are:
- Synology DS925+
- Synology DS1525+
- Synology DS725+
- Synology DS1825+
- Synology DS425+
- Synology DS225+
- Synology RS2825RP+
Previous PLUS series devices did not arrive with the exceedingly strict ‘no verified = no initialization’ rule that the above system’s had, so although these will benefit in DSM 7.3 with lessened warnings that they currently had, it is not the deal breaker proposition that it is/was in the x25 series.
However, let’s return to the point. Was ALL of this chaos by Synology worth it? Was there actually a coherent strategy in place here? Let’s discuss the damage that the last 6 months have caused.
What Happens When a User Installs a Hard Drive That Is Not on the Compatibility List but Is Not on the Incompatibility List Either?
Under DSM 7.3, Synology has overhauled how its NAS systems handle drives that are not officially listed in the compatibility database but are also not explicitly marked as incompatible. This new policy, part of the HCL 5.0 framework, restores the flexibility that was largely lost with DSM 7.2. For users of 2025 DiskStation Plus models, including systems such as the DS1525+, DS925+, and DS725+, these drives are now treated as fully functional and supported for installation, storage pool creation, and volume management. When a non-listed HDD or SATA SSD is installed in these units, DSM 7.3 accepts it without generating warnings, restrictions, or “unverified” messages. The drive behaves identically to a fully approved model, and users can create new RAID arrays, expand existing volumes, and use all standard DSM features such as snapshots, encryption, and Hyper Backup. This marks a significant shift from DSM 7.2, which blocked pool creation entirely if the installed drive was not verified by Synology.
The only distinction that remains is on the support side rather than the user interface. While DSM 7.3 operates normally with these drives, Synology’s technical support team may limit assistance for issues proven to be caused by non-listed hardware. This distinction allows experienced users to use mixed or legacy drives at their discretion while maintaining a clear boundary of responsibility. From a practical standpoint, performance, drive telemetry, and reliability monitoring remain fully available, including S.M.A.R.T. analysis, temperature reporting, and bad sector scanning. Storage pools built with these drives are indistinguishable from those using Synology-validated models, which means users can freely upgrade or migrate without worrying about feature loss.
The only exceptions to this open policy involve M.2 NVMe drives and systems outside the Plus, Value, or J series. NVMe SSDs used for caching or storage pools still require official validation because they endure heavier sustained write loads and generate more heat under continuous NAS workloads. As a result, only listed M.2 models can be used for new cache or pool creation, though previously configured drives can still be migrated. Meanwhile, enterprise-oriented NAS lines such as the RS, FS, SA, and XS series continue to operate under stricter compatibility rules, where only officially listed drives can be used for new storage pool creation. In these systems, non-listed drives can sometimes be recognized for migration, but cannot participate in new arrays or cache volumes.
For most users, this means that DSM 7.3 on the 2025 Plus series finally restores the traditional Synology experience: the ability to use virtually any NAS-grade hard drive or 2.5-inch SSD without restriction. It also removes the previous generation’s unnecessary barriers that alienated long-term customers. Synology has positioned this change as a response to community feedback, reaffirming that flexibility can coexist with reliability. The HCL 5.0 framework is now the baseline for all new consumer and prosumer systems, signaling Synology’s partial return to an open and more user-friendly storage policy.
| Drive Type | Listed on Compatibility List | Not Listed (Not on Incompatibility List) | On Incompatibility List |
|---|---|---|---|
| HDD | Fully supported for installation, storage pool creation, migration, and caching | Fully supported for installation and storage pool creation; no warnings or limits | Blocked from installation and storage pool creation |
| 2.5″ SATA SSD | Fully supported for installation, caching, and migration | Fully supported for installation, caching, and migration; no warnings or limits | Blocked from installation and storage pool creation |
| M.2 NVMe SSD | Fully supported for cache and storage pool creation (on select models) | Not supported for new cache or pool creation; supported only if migrated from an existing system | Fully blocked from all operations |
| Warranty Coverage | Full Synology NAS warranty applies | Full NAS warranty applies, but Synology may not provide drive-specific technical support | NAS warranty applies; installation blocked |
How Is Hard Drive Compatibility in DSM 7.3 on the Rackstation/RS and NVR/DVA Surveillance NAS Systems?
While the original restrictions are expected (though not wholy welcome) for enterprise-grade units, DSM 7.3 also applies similar limitations to rackmount Plus (RS+) and DVA/NVR models, which has generated frustration among users expecting parity with desktop Plus series devices. Systems such as the RS2423RP+, RS422+, and DVA1622 remain governed by a more conservative policy, where only drives on the compatibility list can be used for new pool creation, and unlisted HDDs are accepted only for migration. In contrast to the new, flexible policy introduced for 2025 DiskStation Plus models, these rackmount and surveillance systems do not yet benefit from the same relaxed rules. This distinction is particularly disappointing given that many surveillance-optimized HDDs—such as Seagate’s SkyHawk or IronWolf ranges—have not yet been verified by Synology for DVA or NVR units, leaving buyers with fewer officially supported choices despite these drives being purpose-built for similar workloads.
The DVA and NVR product lines further complicate matters because their operating environments rely heavily on consistent write performance and power management behavior. Synology’s internal reasoning is that drive validation for continuous surveillance recording requires more predictable I/O latency and lower error recovery times than typical NAS workloads. However, the practical impact is a reduced range of compatible disks, even when many third-party NAS or CCTV-specific drives are known to perform reliably under similar conditions. Until Synology expands its verification program to include these models, administrators deploying rackmount Plus or DVA systems must continue to rely exclusively on officially listed drives or accept limited migration-only functionality.
| NAS Series | Drives on Compatibility List | Drives Not Listed | Drives on Incompatibility List |
|---|---|---|---|
| RS Plus (e.g., RS2423+, RS422+) | Supported for new installation, storage pool creation, and migration | Supported only for migration; cannot create new storage pools or caches | Fully blocked from all operations |
| DVA/NVR Series (e.g., DVA1622, DVA3221, NVR1218) | Supported for installation and migration | Supported only for migration; cannot create new storage pools | Fully blocked from all operations |
| Supported Drive Types | HDD and 2.5″ SATA SSD | HDD and 2.5″ SATA SSD (migration only) | All drive types blocked |
| Drive Example Notes | Synology HAT5300/HAT3300 verified; select enterprise drives | Seagate IronWolf, SkyHawk, WD Purple not yet verified for use | Drives failing thermal or firmware tests |
| Use Case | Rackmount and surveillance workloads requiring consistent write throughput | Data migration or backup restoration | Unsupported entirely |
These restrictions highlight an ongoing inconsistency in Synology’s product ecosystem. DSM 7.3 offers broad flexibility and open drive use on desktop Plus series systems but maintains enterprise-grade rigidity across rackmount Plus and surveillance-focused models. For now, this gap means that users deploying DSM 7.3 on RS or DVA systems cannot benefit from the same simplified, user-friendly drive policy available to standard DiskStation Plus NAS units.
How Is Hard Drive Compatibility in DSM 7.3 on the FS, HD, SA, UC, XS+, XS, and DP Series?
In DSM 7.3, Synology continues to apply the most stringent validation rules across its enterprise and datacenter-class NAS platforms, which include the FS, HD, SA, UC, XS+, XS, RS, and DP series. These systems are built for environments where sustained uptime, predictable throughput, and long-term data integrity are non-negotiable. As a result, they rely entirely on Synology’s Enterprise Compatibility Framework, which only permits the use of drives that have been formally validated and listed on the official compatibility database. These listed drives undergo intensive reliability testing, including extended read/write stress cycles, multi-node redundancy simulations, and controlled recovery from power or network failures. DSM 7.3 enforces this framework to guarantee consistent behavior across RAID arrays and to ensure that firmware-level optimizations, such as error recovery timing and caching algorithms, work as designed with Synology’s proprietary storage stack.
For users of these enterprise models, drives fall into three possible states: listed, not listed, and incompatible. Listed drives are fully supported for installation, storage pool creation, caching, and migration. Drives that are not listed may still appear in Storage Manager but are limited to migration-only use, meaning they can be mounted if they come from an existing Synology system but cannot be initialized for new volumes or RAID groups. This allows data recovery or transition from legacy setups without granting full functionality. Meanwhile, drives on the incompatibility list are blocked entirely and cannot be used in any capacity. These restrictions are designed to prevent firmware mismatches or mechanical inconsistencies that could undermine array stability. In practice, this means that enterprise and rackmount models remain tied to the official drive ecosystem, often limited to Synology’s own HAT or HAS series drives or verified OEM equivalents.
In these product classes, DSM 7.3 also maintains a strict policy for cache and SSD usage. M.2 NVMe drives can only be used for caching or storage pools if they appear on the official compatibility list. Unlisted M.2 drives are detected by the system but cannot be assigned to any cache operation, even for testing purposes. Similarly, 2.5-inch SATA or SAS SSDs that are not verified cannot participate in new array creation, even though they may mount for migration. This conservative approach reflects Synology’s focus on maintaining data integrity over flexibility in its upper-tier systems, where downtime or data corruption can carry substantial business costs. DSM communicates these restrictions clearly during setup: any attempt to use an unsupported drive for new pool creation will trigger a warning explaining that the operation cannot proceed due to compatibility enforcement.
| NAS Series | Drives on Compatibility List | Drives Not Listed | Drives on Incompatibility List |
|---|---|---|---|
| FS, HD, SA, UC, XS+, XS, DP | Fully supported for new installation, storage pool creation, cache creation, and migration | Supported only for migration from existing Synology systems; cannot create new pools or caches | Fully blocked from installation, pool creation, or migration |
| Supported Drive Types | HDD, 2.5″ SATA/SAS SSD, M.2 NVMe SSD (depending on model) | HDD and 2.5″ SATA SSD (migration only) | All drive types blocked |
| Cache Creation | Allowed only with listed drives | Blocked | Blocked |
| Use Case | Enterprise-class virtualization, clustering, and 24/7 workloads | Transitional migration only | Unsupported entirely |
What are the benefits of Buying Synology-branded Hard Drives and SSDs?
In parallel with the policy adjustments introduced in DSM 7.3, Synology has also begun expanding a series of benefits and incentives aimed at customers who purchase Synology NAS systems together with Synology-branded storage media. These initiatives are part of the company’s ongoing effort to strengthen its vertically integrated ecosystem, ensuring optimal performance and reliability when all components come from the same source. In selected markets, buyers who purchase Synology HAT, HAS, or SAT series drives on the same invoice as their NAS hardware now receive extended warranty coverage of up to five years, administered directly through authorized distributors and resellers. In addition, Synology has introduced an Express Replacement program, allowing for immediate drive swaps during the warranty period without waiting for the defective unit to be shipped and inspected, effectively mirroring the convenience of a premium RMA service. These benefits are available at no extra cost when drives are purchased through approved channels. The initiative is designed to make Synology’s validated ecosystem more appealing to businesses seeking predictable lifecycle management and faster recovery in the event of hardware failure, while also providing an incentive for users to standardize on Synology-branded components rather than mixing third-party storage.
Head over to Blackvoid HERE to read Luka’s great write-up on DSM 7.3 below:
Is it Too Little, Too Late? Is the Damage to the Synology Brand Already Done?
It’s a valid point. As mentioned in the intro, Synology has been a brand that, short of a few knocks along the way, has had a sterling reputation. Although their hardware has often been a little underwhelming, the software and services have been largely A1. But the move by Synology in restricting the use of drives from brands such as Seagate and WD burned A LOT of bridges. One cannot imagine that Western Digital or Seagate Technology were especially pleased by the rebuke either. The backlash was immediate and huge. Numerous sources I have spoken to in Europe and the U.S regarding Synology PLUS series sales (even for the 2023/22/21 ranges) confirmed the same sentiment: “Synology Diskstation sales were at a fraction of the previous year.” How much these support changes impacted enterprise solutions is unconfirmed, but given the number of sys-admins who quietly admitted to changing their buying plans, and sales teams who admitted recommending other vendors when Synology quotes became less competitive, the damage over the last 6 months has been palpable.
However, what about the next six months? Or the next 12 or 24? The timing of Synology’s disastrous hard drive support policy flip-flop could hardly have been worse. Alongside tech buyers (home and business) having tighter budgets due to rising costs, international trade tariffs being debated, new players entering the NAS industry, and rising expectations of what a system should do, Synology could not have chosen a worse moment for an unpopular policy. Many users who saw the way the policy was rolled out interpreted it as “the writing on the wall” and changed their stance on the brand. Some already jumped ship to alternative vendors, and others opted for older Synology hardware from pre-2025 ranges to avoid the lockout. For those buyers, the fact that the restrictions are now being removed will feel like a bitter twist – they could have had the newer hardware with the same freedom if they had simply waited a little longer.
How much of this shift can be attributed to public and media backlash is hard to quantify, but the scale of the U-turn speaks for itself. This is not the first time Synology has reversed course under pressure. Back in 2021/22, when DSM 7.0 introduced the earliest versions of its compatibility enforcement with red critical warnings, the outcry forced a retreat in DSM 7.1 to amber warnings instead (read here). History has now repeated itself on a much bigger stage. The difference is that this time, months of poor reviews, negative coverage, and lost sales will remain part of the public record, and Synology will struggle to erase that damage.
Much like QNAP and its long-running association with Deadbolt ransomware attacks, Synology may find that users do not easily forget this saga. For months, the internet has been awash with angry comments, critical reviews, and valid frustration at the brand’s direction. Even with DSM 7.3 restoring full drive freedom, the stigma of this six-month debacle will linger. Some users will never return. Others will approach Synology with renewed caution, mindful that the company could change course again in the future. The reaction from existing and potential Synology PLUS series NAS users was loud enough that I felt compelled to make two videos SPECIFICALLY because users were DM’ing and commenting about why I/NASCompares was continuing in our coverage of this brand:
Is the Synology DS925+, DS1825+, DS1525+, etc NAS OK to Buy Now?
As this change in unverified hard drive support policy by Synology seems to be rolled out in the DSM 7.3 update, that means that currently if you buy and deply a Synology x25 generation NAS, you will still be subject to the restricted HDD deployment status of DSM right now (i.e cannot initialize, cannot RAID build, Rebuild, hot spare, etc unless using a Synology labelled drive or one that eventually might arrive on the compatibility list). So, if you buy the new Synology DS925+, DS1825+ or DS1525+ – unless you were already going to buy Synology hard drive and SSD media, you won’t be able to do very much out the box! So, if you are only considering a Synology NAS right now IF it can be used with 3rd party and/or unverified storage media – DO NOT BUY until the DSM 7.3 update rolls out! You will just be wasting some of your 3 year included warranty whilst you wait!

Im planing to use this guide/dave script once i get my new v2025 nas. Im sure if not alredy covered somewhere in the script, add the wget url to the git hub so that the script and drive db is always fresh. Of course an other task is needed post boot to run it again when internet services are up to fetch the new data. since at boot that wouldn’t happen. Also im somewhat in the future and i belive I’ve heard hdd restrictions have loosen, once i get the nas in a week or so? Ill know.

I’m on my way to upgrade my DS418 (with WD and seagate drives) to a 15xx or 16xx. As exemple, the 1522+ and 1525+ are almost at the same price. The 25+ is new, 2.5Gb and better cpu. The 22+ is older in global hardware, probably supported for a 3 years shorter time as for the DMS updates.
Due to the HD limitations, I still don’t know which one I should buy. But I will probably order the 22+ instead of the 25+. No idea the impact of a weaker CPU for my use (internal fileshare, backups, running 2 VM and a web server), but I feel the risk to be fucked up by Synology during a DSM upgrade is too high. If Synology keeps his “synology HD only” strategy in the next years, this will, with regrets, but clearly, be my last NAS from them.

They still are not going to report bad sectors – they used to do this … I contacted them asking about this and they stated that “bad sectors are not an indication that a drive is failing”.. Just a few things: 1. The drives I purchase have a 0 bad sector warranty 3. It can mean it is failing 2. Let us decide this for ourselves!

A single 30TB harddrive with backup is going to replace my Synology DS1815+ from 2016. Used for just storage at home over the last 2 years, accessed once per week or so, no successor Synology is needed, and Synology has broken its most important values: continuity and stability. Management is unstable now and continuation of products that do what you need is unsure.
Many customers will move to other NAS solutions, others like me re-evaluate requirements and simplify. The old Synology can be second backup as long as it still works. Second-hand value is next to nothing anyway.

Huge loss in, what was a previously excellent, reputation.

The relationship between a company and the consumer is about trust. They broke trust! I’m not completely sure how this is gonna affect them years down the road, but it has affected them and it’s going to continue to affect them. They need to apologize publicly, not just by a statement of reversal of policy.

Well, never bought Synology products and now they’ve given reasons not to buy.

It is too difficult to return number 1 now, for the company is always thinking about making a profit for customers, They choose for cheaper price & synology choose to cut off before because of their self confidence but not care to customers.
This is a part of the leaning case.

We all need to remember that flip flopping a policy like this is not focused to bring back users that left. They all knew the cost of the initial decision, and are fine with it. So for every one of you stating you’ll never go back, you’re not why they reversed the decision. They already got your money. They don’t lose a dime by you switching now.
But what that decision did which is affecting them is removed themselves from consideration of new users with little knowledge of the brand. And this is what they hope to reverse. And it’ll probably take about one quarter to stop the bleeding and start getting new users back on board with their products.

Wonder how many got fired for making that initial decision. Would suspect their sales were cut 60% instantly last quarter because of it

Well, Synology lost out a sale here locally. I serviced a 1511+ w a ps issue. (Caps. And fan). Client had two other 1821+ and was concerned about their ps. After some discussion, they decided it was time to just replace the units w larger pool. When i told them syn was playing stupid games, they went w another vender. Btw, all units had full pop hgst ent drives so the issue wasn’t fiscal.

Wow. I’m a Synology user and was unaware of this policy change until today. I’m glad I missed all the mess, because I would have been steaming mad during those months. It would be unfortunate to have to move to a different brand, but I would have to be able to use the hard drives of choice I want to use. And, most likely, I would have just built my own NAS from a dedicated Linux machine. Fortunately, I have the ability to do that.

I’m also using it for running small VMs, so the newer processor was very welcome. But… turns out that I need a yearly $200 subscription license to be able to make snapshot backups of my VMs onto another Syno.
Thank you Syno. My next new setup will consist of FOSS on standard hardware. I don’t care anymore that it’ll take 5 x longer to set it up.

I have had a Syno for the last 20 years and I was one of those who wanted to buy a newer 25 model.
And when something works for so long without problems I’m usually someone who stays with a brand.
Because of the changes they made I decided to hold of buying a newer model.
Even if they turn their decision around, which is awesome it did gives me doubt about future support/changes.
So the trust in Syno as a good and stable and pretty high-end but affordable brand is a bit damaged at the moment.
I will not be buying one anytime soon I will keep a watchful eye on how this evolves.

I hate nowdays the brand Synology. When I bought a nas of this company a few years ago I knew that the hardware specs you get for the price you pay was a bit lower than the nas of other companies. That was okay since the idea was that you also pay for the userfriendly software. Now after few years of buying the nas, I have noticed that some software packages are removed. They are also very slow in brining out the updates.
If they keep going on with this behavior Synology will be a very basic nas like OpenMediaVault or something which tries to sell every extra feature and upgrade and is also expensive when buying.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
FAFO and synology did. They have lost lots of customers trust though and lots of people like me who have bought other companies hardware rather than synologies.

I just bought a new NAS 4bay 2 months ago to supplement my older Synology. I would’ve bought a new Synology, but that hard drive policy was bonkers. I bought a ugreen instead, and I probably won’t ever go back. Never say never, but Synology lost my trust with that move, and it will take a while to earn it back. Of course, it will be a while before I buy a new NAS, so they’ve got time.

I think Synology stepped in it too deeply this time and there is probably no going back to the leading market positiion for them. This blunder really couldn’t have come at a worst time, what with uGreen and all of the other new and compelling entrants into the SOHO NAS space.
However, I think it will be entertaining (if nothing else) to see what they do next.

All I have to say is, “Too late, Synology!” A couple of months ago I decided to go NAS. After my research, and postings about the Synology HDD policy, I bought a UGreen NAS, which I have populated with identical 10TB Ironwolf drives, and now it’s simply too late to carry any regrets or make a change. Bad corporate decisions cost companies money. I wish Synology well in the long run, because competition helps everyone, but bad corporate decisions can favor competitors.

I realized it was time to finally invest in a NAS about 3 weeks ago, and had always heard for years that Synology was what you wanted. Once I started looking into it though, the drive policy and the older hardware in the affordable models turned me off and steered me towards others.

Was planning to upgrade my RS814+ this year with either a new 923+ or 925+, after the harddrive shenanigans, even if it is overturned for now, a 925+ is out of the question.
I will probably go with a used 923+, just for the easy migration away from the 19″ rack format, that I no longer want, but I will defo not give Synology any of my money anymore.
I know I would be better of with almost any other NAS vendor, but I just don’t have the capacitiy financially to buy a new NAS with 4 HDDs nor the time to migrate my data, docker configs, etc. from NAS to external HDD to NAS and set it all up again from scratch…

I work as data recovery specialist in the EU and dealing with branded harddrives is always a mess that significantly reduces your chances of a successful recovery. We have literally recommended hundreds of customers synology products just to get slapped in the face now.

A pretty decent take my dude. Well done, but there is more you can do.
To answer the question in your title, no. We haven’t won for many of the reasons you mentioned. Now is not the time to celebrate and then, like sheep, give synology more money. The way ‘we win’ is by STILL avoiding synology like the plague that it is as a warning to other companies that this kind of behaviour will not be tolerated. Not even temporarily. When synology have disappeared from the market, the message will have been sent and we will have won.
And if you think that’s too harsh, look at what they tried to do. Hard drive interfaces are an industry wide standard. To put some kind of arbitrary and restriction on a global standard just so they can make more money is wildly terrible behaviour. It would be like them all of a sudden requiring special network cables. Or special RAM. Either of which you could technically accomplish if you know your way around the linux kernel.
PLEASE do the right thing and refuse to work with them going forward. Help send the RIGHT message.

I could be reading too much into the article on their newsroom, but specifically the line “Synology is collaborating with drive manufacturers to expand the range of certified storage media, delivering more reliable options.” to me reads as “The drive manufacturers told us to do things anatomically impossible”. Given this I have no doubt they will try again the the future, and they are already on my verboten list where it is possible, my issue is mainly that the likes of UGREEN have no rack mount units, most of my use-cases want 1 and 2 RU rack mounts

“Synology is collaborating with drive manufacturers to expand the range of certified storage media, delivering more reliable options. In the meantime, 2025 model-year DiskStation Plus, Value, and J Series running DSM 7.3 will support installation and storage pool creation with third-party drives¹.”
To me this sounds like it’s leaving the door open to bring this restriction back. Even on the existing 2025 hardware.
It’s “in the meantime”
In 1 year, after they decided they sold enough machines from the new generation, they can say “we did a lot of work with hdd manufacturers, you have a lot of choice, DSM 7.4.2 brings back the hdd restrictions, for your safety.
And they didn’t admit any wrongdoing, they basically doubled down.
If they want to restore any semblance of trust they should do what we ask small kids to do when they apologize: acknowledge the mistake, take responsibility without excuses, express remorse, and promise not to do it again in the future.
Right now the message is: we did it too soon, will bring it back when we think we can get away with it.

In 1 year, after they decided they sold enough machines from the new generation, they can say “we did a lot of work with hdd manufacturers, you have a lot of choice, DSM 7.4.2 brings back the hdd restrictions, for your safety.
And they didn’t admit any wrongdoing, they basically doubled down.
If they want to restore any semblance of trust they should do what we ask small kids to do when they apologize: acknowledge the mistake, take responsibility without excuses, express remorse, and promise not to do it again in the future.
Right now the message is: we did it too soon, will bring it back when we think we can get away with it.

After trying others I got a synology a couple of years ago. This policy didn’t affect me but disappointed me, so I’m glad they have reversed. For what it’s worth Synology has been an incredible storage solution. Zero issues and great software. I hope they commit to this new path.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Synology is dead to me. The hard drive thing was one of many stupid/greedy choices they made over the years, and I imagine it won’t be their last. I think NASes in general are no longer relevant with so many low-cost, low-power server options out there.

No. Synology is dead, less features, killing drivers, very low and lacking hardware, they did it once, they will do it again. Other have joined the band wagon and now Synology sucks hard, by a long mile.

REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Good news…I’d been wondering what I was going to do next time my NAS filled up and I needed to add a drive. I know I sure as heck wasn’t going to pay for a Synology HDD. So I’d have either had to clean up data or find a new solution. Thankfully I can just grow again now. Good move Synology, but I agree the brand damage was immense.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Synology was already on the slide, tuenas, unraid, ugreen, unfi, etc are already better alternatives in many ways and feature hardware that’s superior. Sure it totally bombed their rep but there was little to shout about them in the first place. They had the lead and have thrown it away for pure greed and i for one will never trust a brand like them ever again.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I have a very Synology heavy setup – a 211j, 214 play, 923+ nas as well as a synology router and 3 mesh APs. Whilst I don’t need another NAS any time soon, like you I am pleased that they reversed this decision. I won’t be reversing my decision to ditch their networking kit in favour of unifi in the new year though. I have lost too much trust in Synology’s consumer ecosystem over this (and also their networking kit hasn’t had much love in terms of SRM updates or new kit – still no WireGuard Support)
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
You still need a Synology HDD on the new units just to turn them on and update the DSM. Check the press release, they haven’t rolled back the decision, they just postponed it for a bit. It effectively doesn’t do anything and Synology becomes even more toxic after this half-baked attempt to save whatever could be saved.

Too late. Synology left a window open for the competition to steal customers, and customers have realised there are better alternatives

I went with a Synology 4 bay unit at the end of 2023 before this sillyness struck and my primary buying consideration was getting a model with ECC at a reasonable cost, which they offered and other options didn’t. If they had already locked down the drive compatibility to their own rebranded models I WOULD NOT have purchased it and all this change means for me is that I might consider them in the future again. With that said, their moves elsewhere about removing codecs for licensing reasons seem really silly as other nas models let you buy licenses fro proprietary file systems like XFAT but removing it from systems that HAD it is beyond the pale. If they keep up their antics on these other fronts I’ll have to treat them like WD after the SMR smuggling games of a coupel of years ago where I just assume they’re up to shady stuff until I can prove otherwise.

Ruined brand, but if not for the ‘our brand…. firmware’-only policy it is the fact that other problems plaque Synology by their own doing.
– sub par CPUs in basically every NAS
– DS24xx series it allowed to have a volume of 100+TB “because the CPU doesn’t support”
– Transcoding no longer ‘possible’ (=allowed) due to licensing issues?
I have a DS2419 and DS3617 (only for the 10GBE actually), but this year I got a older Supermicro 847-12 (36 bays) which works a lot better.

This should not be a surprise. A company tired something and changed their mind. We can speculate all day about reasons. Maybe they thought the manufacturers would jump on validation to get their drives on the list. Maybe this, maybe that. It doesn’t matter. I never ruled them out of my next purchase, and this decision hasn’t changed much for me. I’ll make that decision when I come to it. I have an 1821+. I want a second 8 bay to back it up to in a different location. Maybe that will be an 1825+, maybe it will be the new Ubiquiti 8 bay that was just announced, maybe something else. I still don’t know, and that decision is a next year decision anyway. I have reasons right now to go either way.
For those saying it is too late, it isn’t. Companies have made much larger mistakes and survived. Companies have killed people and survived. Here’s the thing, if it really is too late, there is no need for them to change. They have lost the customers that are lost, and kept the ones they will keep. New customers will look at this past decision and buy or pass on the brand. No, it isn’t too late. Many new customers will buy now that would not have before. Others that decided not to will come back. Those who will never forgive or trust have exist, but just because some will never guy the brand again, it does not mean it was too late. Even some of those that say never again today, will say yes tomorrow.
I’m not defending what they did. I didn’t like it. However, I attempt to be objective and less feeling about what I think about such things. When my feels get involved, I get super opinionated.
The reactions at the time were warranted, and probably helped drive the ultimate decision to change, but now its over. We should all move on. Hate them and never support them again, or forgive them and consider the brand an option. Either way, let it go.

Ha, ha, your persistence in justified Robby, but too late Synology – you lost my trust ages ago! Earlier this year I had planned to invest in Synology but their exclusive disk policy pushed me to QNAP and I’m very happy with my decision. I’m using my own choice of HDD’s and SSD’s without having to wrestle with hacks.

Too late, I built two TrueNAS servers to replace my two Synology servers, which I sold on eBay. There was definitely a learning curve, but I’ve now got everything up and running perfectly. What happens to all the people who were forced to buy their branded drives initially reluctantly? ????

I’ve had a Synology DS1621+ for several years and built a server in a box (Jonsbo N5).
I can say that I’m very happy and well served with my NAS/Server (Operating System TRUENAS).
These days, with the amount of hardware and software available, I can say that I don’t miss Synology at all.

I dont trust them or want to use their products anymore. I had a 920+ and a older 2-bay I used as backup of backup. Sold both, I use Unraid as main NAS now and a Proxmox server as second device. Very happy about it and leaned a lot along the way. I recomend Unraid for anyone. Very flexible and great community!

I needed an extra NAS to back up my Synology RS1221+, but Synology’s drive restrictions during Prime Day pushed me to grab a UGreen NAS instead. When companies make abrupt changes like this, they really should consider how it affects loyal customers and long-term sales. Hopefully next time, they’ll think twice before alienating their base.

I ordered UniFi Unas Pro two days ago, should arrive today. I also noticed Synology store is “out of stock” on 16 TB drives right now. Largest drive available from Synology is 12TB at the moment. Looks like logistics issues are the real reason for the change in policy, not a change in their thinking. Nothing keeping them from implementing the drive restrictions again.

I ordered UniFi Unas Pro two days ago, should arrive today. I also noticed Synology store is “out of stock” on 16 TB drives right now. Largest drive available from Synology is 12TB at the moment.

It appears to me that Synology let greed override customer service, and then became tone-deaf to the rising clamor. While some users will continue to support the platform, many other users (including me) have lost trust in the brand and have moved on. I had a Synology DS-920+ and was planning to purchase a DS-925+. When Synology made this decision to restrict drives, it became easy for me to switch to a UGreen DXP4800Plus. While Synology’s OS is more refined, UGreen is moving fast, focusing on getting the core system just right and not overextending themselves. I am very happy with my decision, and won’t be going back.

Far to late. Trust gone and massively dated hardware. I’m a UGREEN fanboy now and have spent £1000’s of customer money with them. Even my own NAS is now a UGREEN DXP6800 Pro (I even have DMS7 running as a VM as the only remotely usefull thing I wanted from DMS was the 360 Active backup)

Your point at about 8 mins…its a non issue? they wont be impacted as their old systems will never have been restricted… and their old DSM was not a hinderance.. ONLY new device (which prob would have been 7.2 when they bought it) will need upgrade to 7.3 to escape the restriction… i.e. a small update from 7.2 to 7.3… not the major upheaval you make it out to be.

The biggest mistake Synology made was that they DID NOT KNOW WHO THEIR CUSTOMERS ARE!!
Most NAS buyers are tech-lovers and “geeks” who hate to be owned by anyone. They always want to make their own decision – no matter how expensive those choices are.
Synology tried to mess with those people who had “chosen” Synology NAS on their own decision, and didn’t know those same people can “choose to leave” also on their own decision. Wonderful case study for the most stupid marketing decision.

I WAS a Synology fanboy since 2006. I bought 4 NAS boxes and 6 routers in that time, along with recommending their kit to many others along the way. This hard drive lock in, low end hardware at premium prices, removal of updates for older but capable equipment and removal of functionality means that they are unlikely to ever see me as a customer again. I still have the routers for now, but have moved on in terms of NAS hardware. Latest machine is a self build with unraid. Future machines to be determined.

After decades with Synology, my trust is gone — and I believe many other prosumer users feel the same. DSM remains a brilliant piece of software, but the company’s direction has become impossible to follow: restrictive drive policies, buggy updates, and the sense that small scale users are no longer a priority.
Here’s a tip, Synology: license your still-magnificent DSM OS (and its suite of apps) for third party hardware. Many of us would happily pay a few hundred euros for the software alone — and pair it with hardware that’s much more powerful and available from other producers.
I just don’t think users that have jumped the boat will return otherwise.

I would not have a problem using Synology drives, it was just the price of the drives compared to alternative suppliers. Even if it was a little increase that would not be a problem. I use Toshiba Enterprise drives and they have been great. I have 4TB, 8TB and 16TB drives over 2 systems and I went with QNAP due to the ability to use the drives I want, capability to use 2.5Gb and insert Intel 540 10Gb cards.

BTW Synology you missed out on 4 NAS sales at my end because of your silly money hungry tactic…
Also if Ugreen can supply better hardware at a cheaper price why can’t you? Goes to show you’ve been ripping ppl off for many years.
Whoever is running your circus Synology I suggest you sack him because he’s given you a very bad reputation…

Lol Synology, the damage has been done you bird brains, you’ve broken the Trust….. Whats your next money hungry move.
BTW Synology you missed out on 4 NAS sales at my end because of your silly money hungry tactic…
Also if Ugreen can supply better hardware at a cheaper price why can’t you? Goes to show you’ve been ripping ppl off for many years.
Whoever is running your circus Synology I suggest you sack him because he’s given you a very bad reputation…

Too late for me, already swapped out my ds413 for UGreen DXP 4800 plus. I had placed an order for the DS1525 when I discovered the 3rd Party Disk policy so had to jump ship. If they had said that 3rd Party disks where incoming I may well have stayed with Synology….

Too late. I invested elsewhere. In about 2 years I’ll be back shopping for a new NAS. Let’s see if synology rebuilds it’s reputation by then

I needed a new NAS and bought a UNAS pro but kept my DS918+. I think this was about Synology thinking (incorrectly) that the power of their brand would keep users under the thumb of their draconian policies. I can only assume the reason for the u-turn is that their sales figures have been poor and they don’t enjoy being characterised as a bully in the market. As you say this will take a long time for people to forget and trust will take longer. They compounded their direction change with messaging that no-one believed about drive quality and reliability. Do they think that we forgot the literal point of their product is to protect against HDD failures. If they had been worried about that, they would have forced users to take more resilience (i.e. raid one in a two or four bay nas) or one of the 2 drive protection strategies in a larger nas. For me it’s the spin on why they were making the change to only support their drives that I never believed and I don’t appreciate

I’ve been looking for a future replacement of my DS918+ which is working fine at the moment. I considered going with Syno HDDs for a bit and just eating this but then did more research on alternatives and I actually now want something that isn’t so locked down both in hardware and software. My next NAS probably won’t be a Synology and I bet the competition will come up with some really compelling offerings in the next couple of years until I need to make a decision. Looking for a solid 4-5 bay purpose built machine that I can run something closer to “regular” Linux on. The Ugreen DX4800 Plus is already a contender for me.

“What was the point?” -> money (read greed)
“why it was reverted?” -> money (yep, greed again)
I am sure I am one of MANY people who actively disuaded customers from purchasing Synology with this change.

If Synology changes their approach back, then I may start recommending Synology again sometime in the future.
However for now I will reserve judgement and see if they also change their other shitty actions as of late like gutting DSM functions (e.g. codecs) for absolutely no valid reason.

I have an old 2016 2 bay Synology that I’ve been planning on swapping out for a while. I do want to stay with Synology because I use their Hyper Backup and the system works as well as a gut feeling that they provide a more robust and secure solution.
The whole drive lockdown has really put me off Synology to a point where I’ve built something else as secondary off-line local storage. I do, however want a newer 4-bay device that I can expand into. I was going to go for a rack mounted system but when they introduced Synology only drives a few years back that was off the cards.
I’ll see what happens over the next couple of months and make a decision – however this has made Synology attractive again. Totally stupid idea to lock the platforms down, but bean counters will be bean counters.

Still have a 412+ on latest DSM 6 and a 920+ on latest DSM 7, the 412+ is basically the Active backup for the 920+ and currently the DSM version difference doesn’t seem to be an issue for that. For the moment they do what I need including Active Backup for Business. Personally I don’t use a lot of the fancy things of DSM, currently my NAS just works as a file server old fashion style + Synology drive on my laptop and mobile (very practical). Nothing another brand can’t offer, so if the time is right I will look at the market and see what is available. It’s not only the disk brand lock in but also the hardware specs behind of the competition that makes me look elsewhere. They have to offer solid software as well though.
Love to see Ugreen and Ubiquiti coming on board, in a few years from now they will be solid competitors and Synology and Qnap will have a run for their money.

Personally I don’t use a lot of the fancy things of DSM, currently my NAS just works as a file server old fashion style + Synology drive on my laptop and mobile (very practical). Nothing another brand can’t offer, so if the time is right I will look at the market and see what is available. It’s not only the disk brand lock in but also the hardware specs behind of the competition that makes me look elsewhere. They have to offer solid software as well though.
Love to see Ugreen and Ubiquiti coming on board, in a few years from now they will be solid competitors and Synology and Qnap will have a run for their money.

Unfortunately the response here perfectly highlight why companies try to pull these ‘dirty tricks’ in the firet place. Consumers don’t really reward a company for ‘good’ behavior. And the oversaturation is creating a squize in the NAS market. Sad thing because Synology is still the only company with a good back up solution and and an absolute rock solid OS. Havent had a single issue and ran a NAS sinds 2018. My self built Unraid NAS however was absoluut dogshit, limetech (unraid makers) released so many buggy updates. Even ones that hard crash the system.

And the oversaturation is creating a squize in the NAS market. Sad thing because Synology is still the only company with a good back up solution and and an absolute rock solid OS. Havent had a single issue and ran a NAS sinds 2018. My self built Unraid NAS however was absoluut dogshit, limetech (unraid makers) released so many buggy updates. Even ones that hard crash the system.

The problem is that it wasn’t _JUST_ the hard drive lock down situation. It was mutltiple anti-user, hostile actions that they took over the last few years.
One of the most heinous was removing capabilities that were there and advertised for the models, like hardware transcoding, by removing the support modules from their shipping kernel, with zero alternative. Took a bit for some enterprising community members to put it back, and then more recent models hardened the system to be resistant to even that. First it was just HEVC, then it was all hardware transcoding. Forcing indexing processing on to client machines instead of supporting it internally to the system through poorly thought out system apps and browser extensions.
It is clear that Synology was tempted by the money in enterprise solutions, but their roots are in Small Bussiness/Home-Office and ProSumer. They do not have the support or ability to handle enterprise contracts, but they were willing to estrange all of their ProSumer audience through multiple hostile actions, and meanwhile cause all of their Small Business customers to also re-evaluate their position on the brand as well.
In their chase for control and in their greed, they have shot themselves in the foot. They deserve the limp in their sales and budget going forward, and the gigantic black eye to their reputation.
They have sought it and well and truly earned it.

It could be one of the reasons you mentioned. Or simply that money talked. The new models have been out for a few months. Sales were probably hit hard enough for them to realise that it wasn’t sustainable and they had to reverse. Better late than never.

Excellent points. I’ve sold my 7-year old 5-bay Synology NAS a couple of weeks ago. The price was relatively high compared to the new systems. Possibly the buyer wanted to avoid the disk compatibility policy shenanigans. They may not feel as great about their purchase now. For myself, I followed the news on the policy from the start and this motivated me to switch to Ugreen and start using TrueNAS.

already get a DS425+ for 218J upgrade, so far my cost isn’t much different as in my location the Segate and WD drives are more expensive than Synology drives at 12TB. But that being said, just updated to 7.3 and yet the NVMe still needing their own drive make me kinda upset.

I’ll be slowly replacing all my Synology devices (DS plus and RS plus series) with UGREEN and Ubiquiti UNAS Pro devices over the next few years. I’ll also advise all my clients to start switching to Ubiquiti and UGREEN from the Synology RS plus and XS devices. It’s been a good run for the last 15 years with Synology. It’s time to say goodbye.

I’ve alluded to this before, but it feels a bit like an Intel moment for Synology. Intel ruled the CPU market for years. As a result, they failed to innovate, made only small incremental improvements, wouldn’t offer more than four cores on mainstream CPU’;s etc. They sat on their laurels, assured they were king. Then, AMD’s Zen CPU architecture launched. Sure, it wasn’t as polished an experience with early chip set drivers etc. However, it disrupted the market, offering users up to double the course at lower prices. Years later, AMD have arguably won the desktop CPU market from a player considered untouchable and too large to fail.
Synology is experiencing its Intel moment.
The question is, how will they respond in terms of future products.

Sure, it wasn’t as polished an experience with early chip set drivers etc. However, it disrupted the market, offering users up to double the course at lower prices. Years later, AMD have arguably won the desktop CPU market from a player considered untouchable and too large to fail.
Synology is experiencing its Intel moment.
The question is, how will they respond in terms of future products.

But with this policy change, I decided I won’t be going with Synology anymore and instead would get a Unifi NAS, since the rest of my network is already with Unifi. I couldn’t care less about the rollback of their policy. The trust is lost and I’m not going back.

And HDD I want, up to date filesystem, and I could move the drives to another computer and still use the data. So now I’m beginning to think about how to replace my synology 8 bay in the next few months.

Synology who? Love it when companies are dumb enough to think they dictate demand not the consumers that buy their products. They have been rolling out minor updates for years. Mediocre product at a high price. They have had great software that has hand its hands tied behind its back with poor hardware selection. No real product development for years. They lost the market they basically created.

the damage is done. What happens if in 1-2 years they decide to pull again the support for 3rd party disks.
They just was not expecting this blowback and that the rest of the NAS vendors to gain so much share in just 5-6 months. They thought they were they only ones in market and can do whatever they want.
Synology was always my suggestion since they are easy to use and have great integrations and apps. But trust is gone.
too little too late.

The u-turn doesn’t change the fact that Synology hardware has been lagging behind for the last five years. Other companies has caught up and it’s really just the software that sets Synology apart from the rest (something they have started to erode anyway). I’ve been running a hackology since 2017 and really wanted to buy a real Synology this year, but I’m already looking for another brand…

I have a DSxx16+ unit, which I got months before the xx21’s were released (ugh) so I was going to wait for the next cycle. When they brought out their own branded drives, I kinda liked the idea that they could update firmware on the fly, as opposed to my WD drives. I was considering this path as a nice option, but as soon as the made it mandatory, I nope’d out of that idea. It’s nice to see them back in the right direction, hope it lasts… I still haven’t decided my upgrade path yet, but I have so much more to consider now

Synology ignored their customers for months. They became both intransigent and arrogant. Rather than decide quickly to reverse this decision, they clung on, digging their heels in. Even if you discount their user base, choosing to restrict HDD options when the likes of Ugreen and others are challenging Synology like never before beggars belief. It smacks of complacence and a belief that they owned this space.
Months later, their image and sales have taken a nosedive, existing and future customers have turned away from the brand, their recent event saw rows of empty chairs and the rep justifying the lock-insounded flat and unenthusiastic using the usual word-salad excuses.
Now, is when they decide to listen.
The damage is done, their name has been tarnished and I’d love to see their sales figures. Money is why they put this policy in place despite all the flowery corp[orate BS explanations, and it’s money that has forced them to U-turn.
By the time I need to replace my Synology machines, I may well be seeing the likes of Ugreen on parity as far as software, and they’ll certainly be way ahead on hardware.
If I were Synology now, and had suffered this black eye and bloody nose, I’d rethink my future roadmap and start upping their hardware game big time. Only then do I think they can reclaim some of their lost reputation.
It’s a shame we had to shout before they bothered to listen.

My current NAS, in addition to easy NAS-tasks, also runs hyper backup to another NAS, a few docker images, Dropbox sync, a few PHP scripts, DNS, DHCP. So yes I’m very happy about that, because I’d prefer to avoid to find another product which does all the same and migrates automagically. I’m in that age where a prefer to spend a little more with less headaches or weeks of work on top on my spare time.

I didn’t know about this until after I had set up two Synology units with standard NAS specified drives from Seagate and although it did complain about non-supported drives they did what I wanted.
I can however accept if they do list drives proven to be unsuitable, but that’s a different question, and those drives are likely to be unsuitable for other NAS units as well.
If you only have a list of accepted drives then you will discover customers complaining about that they can’t install drives they already have or that the offering of drives from the NAS supplier is lagging behind in capacity.

I bought an RS2423+ and it was also vendor locked (something I found out after I took delivery of it) – but at the time Synology’s drives were a few Terabytes behind the rest of the industry (in addition to their outrageous prices) – I ended up using the Dave Russell database to get the constant warning state to go away (which also prevented data scrubbing and other automated maintenance from running).
I’m glad to see they’re putting the enforcement on the plus series in the bin, but any word on the RS series? Will we finally get out of the hell we’ve been dealing with for the last couple of years?
At this point, I may continue my plan to add drives to the array, but when this chassis comes due for replacement (My DS1815+ lasted 8 years, so I’ll likely start looking in the next 2-3 years), I’ll likely look at 45 HomeLab or something similar, since it’s open architecture, unless Synology can prove different in the next few years.

Synology have shown their true face and their contempt for the users. I myself will not be going back to the brand and will buy something else instead or go full DYI. What Synology have disregarded is that it’s not 2010 any more, and the use of linux is not limited to a handful of sorcerers living in their man caves. We have AI now, so the barrier of entry into a DYI or another linux based solution has never been lower. When an AI can write scripts or entire applications, Synology’s polished DSM suddendly doesn’t differ much from hypervisors or other NAS operating systems. I just hope the people will remember how Synology f.d them not once (with the HDDs) but twice (with the codec). When you have to go online and search for a workaround to use your device (which you had a PREMIUM for because of the software anyway), then there’s no point in sticking with a consumer-unfriendly company like Synology. The sooner Synology get to the FO part of the FAFO acronym, the better.

I’m still rocking a 1019+ because it’s been working reliably without any issues. I’m still confused as to whether I’ll lose hardware video transcoding if I update to DSM 7.22.

They prominently mention it on the PDF brochure, and I don’t want to lose that capability.

Judging by the comments they fully screwed themselves. That said, inept as they are they’re still ahead of their competition in terms of software.

One of the nice things about Synology is their Synology Hybrid Raid or SHR. It lets you add drives or replace drives to easily expand your storage space. You can also mix-n-match drives of different sizes. Does any other NAS manufacturer offer something similar? I started with two 8TB drives in my Synology 918+ 4-bay NAS. Then I added another 8TB… and then another. Then I started replacing those 8TB drives with 16TB drives. And it was easy. It’s the main reason I chose a Synology NAS instead of another traditional RAID system where you’re stuck with whatever drives you start with.

I already brought a UGREEN nas when they messed up the harddrive support. I probably won’t try Synology since I think it’s absolutely possible that they make another U-turn in the future.

I am a consumer, however I use the full OEM stack. For me, security, reliability, maintenance and ease of use are more important as I am storing critical documents. Saving $200 on drives by going third party isn’t worth much if I have to spend time and effort to address compatability/drive loss issues. I have other things I want to spend time on.
My biggest issue with the drive lock-in was the consumer backlash. Would this reduce demand for Synology’s product such that they would not longer be around to provide long term support. I wish they hard just let users use third party drives with a disclaimer of the potential risks.
I am concerned about the long time it took them to pull back on their policy of frive lock-in. It means they are probably going to spend then next couple of years contending with the fall-out when they could have been focused on delivering new products/features instead.

I had no issue with them launching their own brand HDDs, but blocking other NAS specific drives (Red / purple ) series, etc was a d!ck move. They took the initiative of flagging incorrect drives used for a nas but implemented it the worst anti consumer possible by blocking.
I’ve seen people using very low TBW ssds for high write applications or using performance drives on NAS just because… which would eventually lead to disasters anyway but that’s users’ own mistakes not on nas maker. They should have stopped at flagging and warning but not blocking.

As for me, when it comes time to replace my older synology that’s still acting as the local backup box because of the wonderful software they have, this is also good news.
That said…
I recently purchased a ugreen. It’s now my primary server, and dollar for dollar, performance wise, never mind the attention to design details, it’s a very nice piece of kit. It’s been an outstanding home server, and has a nice media suite baked into it. The backups are not everything I want them to be, but hey, that’s why I’ve got the old synology. But as maintenance first line storage, that, or one of the unifi boxes, are outstanding.

I entered the world of home servers with a Synology NAS DS410j. Quite a few years ago. Just over a year ago I replaced that one with an RS818+. There’s still juice to extract from it. But my move to a rack mounted NAS was geared towards building my own home lab with more powerful machines. So now I got myself 2 13th generation DELL Poweredge servers which are insane in terms of: storage, RAM, CPU power and network connectivity. So hardware wise I am inclined to plan my next NAS upgrade away from Synology; more so in light of the recent policy changes by Synology: hard drives compatibility, disabling harware transcoding, etc.
Given that open source NAS software solutions are improving, I am looking forward to the moment when migrating from Synology to another platform will be a sensible decision because it will have become just as user friendly.
So congratulations Synology. You had me. You could have got me all the way. Now that prospect is rather bleak.

It’s a bit of a SMOKESCREEN, MISDIRECTION by Synology. Here is why: have a look at their NEW technical support-it appears to ba a BRAINLESS AI BOT! The customer is left having to do the heavy lifting, turning “Tech Support” into “DIY Support”. I spent a small fortune on Synology DS925+, 5 synology HDDs, 16GB ECC RAM and they are unable to solve a straightforward problem with Active Backup for Business. They are a bunch of SCAMMERS, in my opinion. I think the “BRAINLESS AI BOT” is based on CEO DERREN LU’s brain! A few hours ago I threatened Synology with a public campaign against them, including posting on NASCompares, and low and behold they pull this rabbit out of the hat! MISDIRECTION or what????

I had initially planned on Synology, but scrapped that when they announced their idea to only allow their drives. Any vendor that demands you can only use their solution is an immediate no from me. I opted for QNAP and while it may not be as polished as Synology it has worked out just fine for my needs.

Nope. Too late. They FAFO. Can’t get your virginity back. Damage is done.
I honestly think they have nothing to gain by this reversal and should have stayed the course and just offered a full fledged all inclusive solution with their own drives and maybe try to complete on price with those drives and hopefully their offering is so robust and reliable that they live on that scenario.
The flood gates are open with really good new competitors and they’ve tasted Synologies blood. Synology is going to have to pull a miracle out of their hat to save themselves from this self inflected wound.
Ugreen must be laughing their asses off at this.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Too late.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
This hasn’t been an issue for the last six months. Synology has been telegraphing this (now cancelled) policy shift FOR YEARS. I bought a QNAP years ago partially because I didn’t trust Synology’s hard drive policy about not supporting certain features on third party hard drives. The hardwriting was already on the wall. I’m sure the reason was money because its always about money. They thought that users would be just fine buying their hard drives from them rather than shopping the market for the best price for whatever type of drive they wanted. But I’m sure that the sales data had to be pretty stark, especially across the prosumer spectrum who are typically very price sensitive about hard drive prices. All those users went to competitors to the point where they were willing to give up the superior user experience of DSM to just get something that works that was within their budget. Ugreen and Unifi had to be some of the biggest winners of old Synology customers but I imagine all of them saw sales increases.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
For me to trust Synology again, they will need to open source DSM. This way I know I won’t be locked into their ecosystem again. But it’s not going to happen, is it?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Damn, just two months after I sold my outdated Synology and switched to a £4k QNAP setup. I was a lifetime Synology customer before all this nonsense…

I might consider a 4-bay Synology. Ugreen was my primary candidate so far. Not sure I trust Synology not to mess something up though. The management/investors/whoever got greedy. Not a good sign.

I still say do not support Synology. Let them feel the fuck up as long as possible. They can serve as the example to other manufacturers that we will not put up with this kind of bullshit. If we just go back to buying their shit they will wait til people buy in to the ’25 series then try it again.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Thanks to Synology! With their stupid decisio, they inspired me to build my own NAS. By the help of ClaudeAI this doesn’t even seem to be very difficult anymore. It even helped me to select the perfectly matching hardware within a few prompts.
I can now also house my HDDs in a rack mountable enclosure. Everything will run on a low TDP CPU, Proxmox as a host for maximum flexibility and scalability, a filesystem that i can migrate wherever i want, a bunch of RAM, graphics and AI power. Paradise! Everything i will ever need in a single setup and no worries about scalability, updates and all the restrictions that came with Synology in the past 13years.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Yes, too late, that and removing features so never going back to Synology. Never was the biggest buyer as home DYI person, but my grand or two every few years is not hanging around. Went to UGreen the day if was official there would be no 3rd party HDD support even though they were using the exact same rebranded HDD, and then they started removing Media features from the one I already had from them. So no. It was a good run.

Phew, if it wasn’t for your videos I don’t know what I would have done. My DS1817+ died in November 2023 and I was waiting for something to replace the DS1821+, it must have been imminent in 2023!!! When all this started I debated going for a DS1821+ but because of these videos I knew that I could take my WD Red drives from my dead DS1817+ and they would work in the DS1825+ and I was starting to think about what I would do when my drives started to die?! Migrate to another platform. Synology have massively messed up and if it wasn’t for the fact that their software was so good I’d have moved elsewhere. Thank you so much for your coverage of this issue. You’ve saved me a lot of frustration…
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I bought an RS2423+ soon after it came out, and in the awareness of the HDD workarounds (using WD and Seagate HDDs) . Also upgraded memory beyond specs – no issues with this setup. Runs great. Also running an old Mellanox ConnectX-3 or – 4 network card with 40GbE – flawlessly. And I love the excellent (for my needs) and simple to use Synology backup software. I do understand that other vendors have better hardware but the Software (both DSM and Backup) WAS unique selling point in my case (I have 10+ years/3 systems experience with their products at home, and bought another RS2423+ at work) . I may add a Truenas homebuilt NAS for other reasons. Fortunately, there is no need currently to buy a commercial NAS for me – I STILL stick with Synology, but the tipping point has come near: Their HDD policy change came at the right moment: I had starte considering selling my RS2434+ and getting something else without strange company-imposed restrictions. Now, there is time before I need to buy another commercial NAS. I will strongly observe how Synology is moving forward.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
This doesn’t change my future plans because, not being a very hands on tech person, Synology was the way I was going but I’m relieved that they’ve moved off the proprietary nonsense. I wasn’t happy about the limited HDD choices.

Let’s review: (1) Deleted video station so you weren’t even allowed to have it in DSM 7.3, totally screwing over all the users who had a bunch of custom metadata in it; (2) Absurd disk drive policy that was nothing but a transparent money grab; (3) Disabled hardware transcoding after happily selling me an over-priced Intel box I bought less than a year ago primarily because it had it. Why exactly would I ever trust this company ever again? I was willing to pay a bit more for the more robust security features and some of the software conveniences, but no, no more Synology for me. They seem to think they have a walled garden like Apple, and that their users are so locked in by their amazing software that they can abuse them like this. They are about to learn otherwise. I don’t know who is going to make my next NAS, but I already know who isn’t in the running for that sale.

For personal usage, Synology can pound sand because I have moved on to UGreen. For now, Synology is still the preferred option for work related solutions. But I am hoping UniFi steals that market from them.

started to be put off when they decied to remove Video Station, then Encoding, then the whole drive thing…. Things have felt off the last few years with the brand it feels.

Synology actually did me a favor — they cheated me just enough to make me discover the real NAS world out there. I dumped both my 1520+ units for a fully loaded UGREEN DXP8800 Plus, and wow… night and day difference. They can backpedal all they want, but I spent good money with them only to get burned. They chose to be anti-consumer — now I choose to be anti-Synology.

Removed PCIe slots, dumped Intel CPUs for AMD with no igpu, charge a ridiculous amount for add-in cards, removed transcoding, hard drive lock-in, removed h265, took 3 years to implement 2.5Gb, removed USB NIC support, dumped useful apps. Active backup rarely works on Linux clients due to outdated kernel restrictions.
Synology has done nothing but takeaway functionality. They haven’t added anything or increases the value proposition. Now with Unifi in the mix. Synology is done.

Even with this change, the 1825+ is a joke. I’d just get the 1821+ with a 1x or 2x 10Gbe card which you can bring over then whenever you upgrade. I see no reason in buying the 1825+ over the 1821+ besides Synology maybe deciding something stupid like stopping updates for the 21 series.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
That‘s great news meaning I can replace my old Synology NAS by a new one of the same company 🙂 My waiting time and indecisiveness payed off.
Reason: others do not offer something like Active Backup, plus Synology Photos is a solution I like, plus some other software like the e-mail server (which I want to use in the future)
That being said, Ubiquiti is my favorite competitor but still lacks in software I would want to use from Synology. Still the strategy to focus on delivering one solution well for their customers is a strong selling point for me. I like when things just work.
So I am left with the question, how to backup Windows and MacOS devices, how to backup my e-mails from GMAIL and still be able to read it if necessary, how to backup my Photos from iCloud and still be able to use advanced functionality like Faces, Places, maybe even AI for search? Synology with everything build in vs rudimentary functionality from the Ubiquiti NAS. Now the tendency is to stay with Synology.
==========
So, maybe you can create a video on how to backup e-mail from GMAIL into Synology Mail and use it as backup. What I plan to do is to every year backup one year, e.g. the last one, into Synology Mail. Happy if you have an idea for Ubiquiti. You need to save the backup in a file on the NAS and then?

I have an asustor for a quiet compact in the office NAS. Just gone down the route of a self built Truenas for remote backup to replace cloud costs and wish I had tried it before. Always seemed too complicated but it’s not and far more cost effective.

Is it a coincidence that they dropped this news on an Amazon Prime Day? I doubt it. Can’t do transcoding for Plex, so I have to do something different anyway.

Overall this isn’t enough to bring me back.
I have a 723+ and it bricked after 9 months. They exchanged it without too much fuss, but I had to pay return shipping. (In the USA, I was dealing with a direct RMA.) I hope my first unit was a one in 10k defect and the new box will be a 10 year device, the exchange didn’t reset the warranty.
I’m also not pleased with DSM7 it really locks me out of a lot of configurations, hiding them in encrypted mystery database files rather than the traditional Linux config files, and a bunch of little irritating “Do it our way, you don’t really know what you want.” bits and bobs. I didn’t have these issues back on my DSM5 unit, but the hardware had become antiquated.

I mean saying 6 months is difficult. The changes have been rolling down the hill across the brand and 6 months ago is just when they actually committed to what the speculation was.
If you want storage, UniFi is better and cheaper. If you want an app server, UGREEN or QNAP aren’t bad either.
Synology ignored feedback for months. Now they’ve relented but at the cost of brand loyalty and trust. Are they going to stop gaslighting us about hard drive reliability?

Other big companies get the bill from customers too, like Adobe, clearly ‘stealing’ peoples art work so called for ‘training their AI’s’ …. (in a sense facebook does the same).
We need more companies, not less, we need ‘a healthy market’ with competitors, and no ‘Amazons’ or ‘microsofts’ …

That’s how the market should work, competition.
Sadly though, big coorporations keep buying up smaller or competitors to get so big, they can do everything, like this extremely stupid idea to ‘bann’ certain harddrives.

Honestly, I will believe to those changes only when this will be confirmed on release DSM. And also, there is no U-turn with HEIC/H.265 situation so … it will need time to restore any trust.

I had a Synology NAS in my shopping cart while convincing myself that I needed a NAS. Didn’t proceed to checkout. I now have a Ugreen one which I’m quite happy with. Maybe not as many apps but I’m mostly just wanting to store and access files on my LAN so that’s not too much of a problem.

Synology is done in the private market. Besides the anti-consumer HDD Policy they also removed the GPU Drivers making their 2025 Lineup incapable of hardware transcoding, resulting in being basically useless for any home media server just to cheap out of some 20ct license fee per device, which costs about 500USD.
Synology doesnt wont home users any longer and therefore home users also doesnt want synology as a result.

im never buying Synology again — ever. I’m switching to companies like UGREEN because Synology completely lost my trust. Forcing people to use their branded hard drives isn’t a “feature,” it’s a money trap disguised as compatibility.
I literally had to make a client spend an extra $400 just to buy Synology-approved drives — each one at least $100 more expensive than identical third-party models. And their restrictions on hard drives, M.2 SSDs, and RAM are ridiculous. Do they not realize that hardware fails over time, and replacements are often the latest or oldest stock available? Yet if it’s not Synology-branded, it refuses to work.
At least with UGREEN, you can use whatever compatible hardware you want — no corporate nonsense. If it fits and the BIOS supports it, it should just work.
I’m done wasting money testing multiple parts just to find one the OS “approves,” while the BIOS says it’s fine. Enough is enough.
Goodbye, Synology. Like so many others, you’ve lost a customer for life.
You could make the best NAS in the world — I’m still not coming back.
And I hope Synology reads this, because we’re not alone. Thousands of us feel the same way — you’ve turned loyal customers into former ones.
Greedy corporate nonsense.

While may other platforms have rolled out stuff where capabilities are improved with firmware and version updates, the history of Synology over the years has been quite the opposite. Over the years, I have recommended Synology to every client I had for a number of reasons. Given Synology’s removal of hardware transcoding from DSM as well as their still limited and dodgy docker support after all these years, there are almost no situations where they are still the dominant player, and this is by their own choices.
The cost of their hard disk policy and other choices has been that, as an IT shop, our last few installations have been using TrueNAS on off the shelf hardware. Now that we have moved our support to this new platform, and have tooled up to support it, we have found that we can do what I need to for support, and my clients are doing more, faster, and with with less cost. The only downside is about twice as much preparation labor. Given that we make much more profit on labor as opposed to markup, it kept the customer cost of deployments about the same, while increasing my company’s profitability.
Here is the real cost. We still have two older Synology NASes in my personal and work networks respectively and around 8 deployed in the field. These will be phased out over time as the hardware ages. Ours have already been functionally replaced with excellent results in both capacity and capability. Any new clients will not be getting a Synology NAS unless they specifically request one. I suspect other IT shops have made similar decisions for their own reasons, and these decisions by VARs and MSPs have a multiplicative effect on their client bases.
While I can’t speak for other companies, the issue for us is trust; we can’t trust that Synology’s updates will not remove capabilities that we or our clients need as they have in the past, nor can we trust that the brand and products will improve over time. Synology will be able to win our business back, but it will be a long road. Every company has a rise and fall based upon their decisions and those of their competitors. Synology has declined, and they will need to work hard and make consistently good decisions to reverse this trend.

I have been in the market and doing research for several months to determine what NAS solution I want. I have to say Synology’s decisions to try and monopolize this space with forcing the consumer to buy their proprietary drives has completely removed them off my list of choices. Right now UGREEN is my favorite. I do like that reports state that Synology has a bunch of apps and good Security, but going completely proprietary just for profit I am not down for that. Also I have heard Synology’s support is not as good as it used to be.

The damage is done. I am never going to trust their brand ever again, who knows what they will do in 7.4, or 7.5, or 8.0, or … This was clearly brought back because they lost a lot of sales and not because they wanted to bring it back, the chances of them doing this again (or something similar) is pretty high, I give it a year or two. I am very curious how bad the drop in sales must have been for them to do a u-turn on this. That and/or what the brands that actually make their drives have said, I wouldn’t be surprised if they nearly lost the manufacturer of their drives (I recommend them to learn how to manufacture drives because why would a drive manufacturer want to have anything to do with them). What a terrible untrustworthy company, I will recommend against them anytime I can.

That and/or what the brands that actually make their drives have said, I wouldn’t be surprised if they nearly lost the manufacturer of their drives (I recommend them to learn how to manufacture drives because why would a drive manufacturer want to have anything to do with them). What a terrible untrustworthy company, I will recommend against them anytime I can.

Most exciting YT video of this year! I literally had to check the date, to see if this was an April’s Fool prank. It was such unbelievable news, I had to watch it twice. Sadly, I’m with Team Too Late. The damage is done. This monumental moronic move by $ynology shredded my trust into pieces. I am willing to try other brands, particularly Ugreen, and help them build an OS that will kick $ynology’s butt.
Brilliant video, mate. I really appreciate your hard work running this channel. A massive thanks from Sweden! ????

Came from QNAP … and still regret the purchase of my 923+ … I want to decide myself if I trust an NVME vendor or not … not allowing even recognised brands, but instead putting a Synology sticker on it and then asking for a ridiculous amount of money … that’s outrageous … I’m done with Synology – considering to sell my unit on the used marked to then try UGREEN, Unifi, whatever – everything except Synology … I’m okay to pay an extra for a good product – but I don’t want to support milking money from customers … obviously Synology’s changes in strategy is them testing the waters on how stupid we customers are – and I don’t want to play this game.

Purchased my first NAS a few months ago. Friends recommended Synology because of their Software and overall build quality. I was looking for the DS925+, but went with a QNAP TS-464-8G instead because of Synologys HDD/SSD policy and i´m realy happy with it. Got better hardware and didn´t care about HDD restrictions. Running 2 Seagate, X20 and Iron Wolf Pro, a Toshiba MG09 and a WD Gold, 18TB each and no issues. Build quality is realy good and i like QTS very much so far. Will most likely stick with QNAP.

Hehe. I just brought a UGREEN NASync DXP4800 Plus with a complementary UGREEN UPS from their website for a staggering £524.99. It’s a great deal.
I have gone and checked out on the going price for an equivalent Synology though (still got time to cancel). Nah. I know the software is the best. But it’s like when I went from Apple to Android. I’m just looking forward to having a system that I can tinker with without being handcuffed or punished. I’ve brought an NVME to use as a separate volume to run apps off. I’m contemplating several options of RAM (no Prime sales though, so no rush). It’s like upgrading a PC!!!!????
It’s fun contemplating the possibilities and upgrades. With Synology, yeah it’s safe and familiar. But the ethernet speeds are tedious. the operating system slower (running off a HDD) and the NVMEs limited to catching at speeds from an already bygone era. I might even install TrueNAS. Maybe even go back and forth between them like an OS floating madman.
I don’t care about the software limitations. I look forward to either solving or working around them. It’s nice just to be treated like a free adult instead of a locked in child with stabilisers and a speed limiter. Most of all I don’t trust Synology not to behave like a monopolising tyrant, selling me cheap old hardware at marked up prices like I have no other options.
It’s not like their not still holding hardware transcoding back from us still.

Maybe even go back and forth between them like an OS floating madman.
I don’t care about the software limitations. I look forward to either solving or working around them. It’s nice just to be treated like a free adult instead of a locked in child with stabilisers and a speed limiter. Most of all I don’t trust Synology not to behave like a monopolising tyrant, selling me cheap old hardware at marked up prices like I have no other options.
It’s not like their not still holding hardware transcoding back from us still.

Too little, too late. I’ve completely lost trust in this company. They’ve disappointed once and I’m sure they’ll do it again. I’ll make sure to never buy a Synology NAS again, neither for work nor for my family and friends. There are excellent alternatives out there thank you Synology, for driving me toward companies that offer far better hardware.

Got a 923+ for work just before the 925+ was announced. So I was happy that I wasn’t locked in but equally annoyed that I’m on even older hardware. It’ll be my last Synology when I do update it in the future though.

As the title already mentions: “Too little, too late”.
The customer base has taken the opportunity to look elsewhere, the competition is offering really good alternatives. Although six months might not look like that long it was long enough for people to realise that it was time to check out alternatives.
Depending on how much cash Synology has in the bank they might or might not recover from this. I would not be surprised if they had to file for bankruptcy within the next two to three years.

Too late, I lost trust in Synology when the dropped Video Station, tell people to use Plex which then had data breach.
Bring back the features they have been culling over the last few years first. We should not be running scripts to have video station, transcoding, USB support and more

I mean they looked at their bottom line and realized …OH! We are not that smart as we thought we were. As much as they are an known brand no serious corporate player who can afford their upper tier lineup will shell that much $ for extra rebranded HDDS. Synology is still a company who lives in the low, mid-upper tier of the SOHO portion of the market. The higher level is for serious clients who look at serious DataCenter level storage and wouldn’t even consider them. So all these shenanigans were just a moneygrab for … some months? If you strip the DSM out of a medium priced Synology box you are left with a pathetic hardware specced unit on which the new kids on the block Ugreen. Aostar and the rest will run circles around. Not even talking about the DIYers who were always LOLing at these specs.compared to the price All said and done if they pulled the rug once I am pretty sure they will try some other time and maybe in a different form. Synology’s management don’t think has caught up with the fact that the NAS landscape has changed A LOT since the late 2000 when they were kings. It is decisions like these(driven by greed and stupidity) that eventually will lead to the company downfall.

The trust is broken Mr Synology: you will have to pay for that for a very long time (!) before the clients consider buying a Syno again. IF they do.
But regarding your brand image, there is no “if”: you will have to pay a very high price for your hold-up attempt.
And what about the Storage Pools on non Synology NVMe ??? are you aware that this restriction has been a pure shame, a scandal ?
And what about the non Synology RAM ???
And the Executive directors that have pushed the policy in favor of the restrictions: have they been fired ???
Despite this (too) long awaited positive decision, there is no more trust: can we reasonably believe that you will not change again your policy in the future ? Of course not: you still have not published a commitment in favor of the restriction removal for the future years. We wait for.
For these reasons, my next NAS (in the coming weeks) will be from another brand: I fell more secure with a brand that has never tried to take my money in a such sad manner.

I was waiting for the DS925+ as my first NAS but when it came out with this policy, I decided to get the DS923+ and I’ve been very happy with it. Obviously I feel disappointed that I could have gotten a 925+ if I waited but oh well. I guess regardless it is kind of too late for Synology’s image. I like that the market is getting more competitive and I hope that when the time comes for me to upgrade my NAS, that I can find a good non-synology option to upgrade to such as Ugreen.

Too late for them now. I bought my ugreen nas two weeks ago. Would have liked Synology, but the proprietary nonsense coupled with the less than stellar hardware for 2025, was the nail in the coffin for me.

Ok one of three checked of the list then.
1) verify third part drives as before.
2) Give us some snapdragon X or some snappy arm cpu.
3) give us possibility to buy licenses for h265 codec and hiec. Perhaps others as well.
This might just be the thing that gives us the trust to buy mailplus. But it would be nice with imap5 with modern authentication and contact + cal sync.

I do use my old Synology boxes but only for surveillance and backup, but I do think they are too late, on top of removing transcoding ability, on top of removing codecs from surveillance system, on top of removing SMART data from the GUI, removing 10gbe, etc etc, and finally reselling 5 to 6 year old hardware as new. They can’t be trusted to remove features from existing and future devices if they can save pennies in the future. I certainly suggest other NAS manufacturers first to friends instead of Synology now.

Reputational damage is a B1tch! Once you loose a customer it might be 5-7 years before they come back and look at your products again. I, personally have moved on to UGreen and will be getting a dekstop Unifi NAS as a secondary NAS in future. I simply will not look at Synology again – that ship has sailed.

I feel like this was ineventiable since it was first announced. I was not sure how they were planning to expand the list of “compatible” drives, but I knew it was not going to stay brandlocked to their bespoke line.
I just bought a UGREEN that is going to be my offsite backup device once I ship it to my friend on the other side of the country. Honestly, I’d have loved to have enough faith in Synology to get one, because SHR is a *killer* feature, but…*shrug*.

Interesting discussion. At my work where we have an older Synology we talked about replacing it and I made the point that now there is a vendor lock-in with the hard disks so we basically dismissed getting a new Synology. Even though it is super easy to manage due to the DSM software. Again this is going to be a timing issue because when will 7.3 come out? Having said that we would like to have another Synology but their reputation definitely is tarnished by all these shenanigans.

Reading a lot of “I was using Synology but will switch to” comments and shaking my head. If you want true freedom with your NAS just build one. Yes it’s work, but it’s fairly trivial to do these days and you get exactly what you want. Use whatever hardware you want and run whatever services you want. Why give these companies hundreds of $ only to get screwed over by them. The amount of time needed to switch to another NAS company could be used to just build your own…

THANK YOU!!! I stumbled upon this by accident, I’m currently running a DS1815+ (since shortly after its release). I’ve been super happy with it. I’d been fiddling around with various self built storage servers and was just happy to now have a device that I can “just use”. I even bought Seagate Ironwolf disks when they came out (with additional Synology integration) just because it was fancy.
But being forced to use special devices is just an absolute nono for me. This is absurd. I was just about to order a new DS1825+ but I guess Synology just lost themselves a customer. Sucks. A lot.
I even recommended Synology to all my friends and family (including buying my dad a 4 bay one, don’t remember which) for him to use and for me to have an off-site backup location. Everything was so easy to set up and just worked for a decade! Now because of some shitty company antics I’ll have to check out how everything works with a different company… really Synology?!

I no longer care what Synology does. I ditched my Synolgoy NAS for a Proxmox server running True NAS Scale along with other VMs. Works quite well and I get to decide how it can be used.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Welcome to the rant room. With reason I think, it is a lovely room!
I personally think Synology is going to regret their decisions. If first party drives, Seagate, Toshiba, WD, etc. are not supported for the 2025 plus series very soon, people will indeed look elsewhere. The competition is catching up very fast at the moment. Although their products might not be an exact drop in replacement for a Synology NAS, they definitely offer solutions that will do a good 80% of the functionality most people need.
For me the same thing applies. I seriously doubt that my next NAS device will be a Synology 2025 plus series. I might look for a 2024 plus series or a 2025 regular series. Ok that script might work but Synology can also decide, if they are completely out of their minds, to drop any warranty on any device if their technicians see that the script is present. Imagine having spend close to 1000 EUR/GBP/USD or more on your new shiny NAS with first party disks (Seagate, Toshiba, WD) that Synology don’t consider compatible. You have important data on that device. Ok you have external backups you can restore but the NAS itself has been declared out of warranty because Synology doesn’t want to deal with your new 2025 purchase that has run into an issue and they have found an easy way out to deny you your warranty. That would be an extremely bad scenario.
A different scenario, let’s say I do get a 2025 plus series and load it with Synology branded drives. What guarantee do I have that Synology retailers are able to deliver me a replacement drive when I need one? Will retailers keep enough of these drives in stock in two or three years from now? It is a serious risk if they are not able to ship me a new drive within 24-48 hours. I obviously have my backups and will therefore not loose any data. However I would like to make sure that the NAS will be able to rebuilt the array as soon as possible with fresh replacement drive.
So yes, the jury has not reached a decision yet but there have been way to many discussions about these new policies. And I am afraid that the fact that after 100+ days there are still no drives by other brands on the Synology compatibility list might swing things in a different direction.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Thank you indeed for this video. I was considering one of the new Synology NAS’. I didn’t skip, I watched your initial info. At the end of that I stopped. I already own some brand new sealed WD drives. The NAS would only be for home use, but given Synology could deliberately break this hack, I’ll steer clear. It is now 6 months since the 2025 Synology systems launched and they haven’t certified or allowed use of any other manufacturer drives as I type this, so it looks like they just won’t. To make more money I supppose. For anyone with existing other drives, old or new, it stinks. Thanks again.

If I can use any HDD in a 2025 Synology NAS, I will most definitely be buying Synology again. If not, then there are so many other brands to choose from, I’ll be heading to them instead. The ball is in Synology’s court but the final play will be decided by the consumer.

You say that Synology plus HDDs are similar in price to WD and Seagate.

Adding 20% to the HDD budget isn’t likely to happen, as I already have paid more for the HDDs than for the NASs they are in

Synology: “We’ve made our product more reliable by blocking third party products” The customers: “Fine, we’ll then run unverified scripts from the internet as root on the NAS”.

Fine if they would’ve limited support, but these official drives are also even just rebadged Toshiba drives.

I honestly think that just apologizing would do alot to bring people back to Synology. They need to openly admit they screwed the pooch hard on this one, apologize for overstepping and lying about saying the policy was about compatability and such. Because they insulted our intelligence to give us this nonsense about how suddenly 3rd party drives don’t work even though the hardware is the same. People don’t like it when a company treats them like an idiot. So Synology has to be brutally honest about how bad they f’ed up and fire the person in charge of this decision to show they’re serious.

This a clear sign that Synology are now being run by financiers not engineers. Ever since Tim Cook took over Apple completely, on Steve Job’s unfortunate demise, the same has been happening to Apple. And it is a recipe for decline in market share and, eventually, revenue and profitability. I’ve been using Synology for 15 years, the two I have will be the last and they are 4 years old now. “Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least.” — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

A friend of mine bought the DS925+ because he was actually satisfied with Synology and didn’t know that he had to buy the in-house model.
I don’t know his old model, but it still had 3TB WD Green drives in it.
The update should now be to 8TB. He bought Seagate and Toshiba, both costing €170 each, while Synology wanted €230 for one drive. The DS925+ was returned as defective, and I also ordered one, which Amazon also received back as defective after a few days.
I set up an Unraid for him, and he is satisfied. Everything is significantly faster and smoother, even though he had to get used to it at first.

So I just took a look and since release of the 925+ they haven’t added any drives until 4 weeks ago. They have since added 3 Synology drives, including 1 about a week ago. So seems activity on drive compatibility may be picking up. I know most of you don’t care, just an observation.

REPLY ON YOUTUBE
My view is and will probably always be this:
If “you” as a designer and engineer need to limit compatibility to your own brand of (whatever product), I should probably NOT buy it.
Not because you removed my choice in brands to buy, but because you can’t write code well enough to get your idea to work with everything on the market.
If you have to lock it down to a brand and not just a size range of drives to “maintain stability”, you obviously can’t write a robust code I should trust and are telling me this directly.
So I take that at your word, your a rubbish product creator and know it.

It’s like other companies when they getting to big they forget the real money there customers and fanbase ex Like Nintendo that don’t care about their customers and fans anymore. They focus only on money and forget who it is that give them money and pay them their salaries. The most important thing for a real good business is its customers and fans without that they actually stop to exist. Every company get their customer because of a good product that has high quality and good options for their customers if Synologo removes all drives except their own brand they are absolutely going to lose customers it’s actually a very very bad decision from Synology that is hard to understand actually. If WD red drives isn’t working on an Synology NAS o boy they are going to lose multiple big customers because they put limitations on their product trying to box people in their bubble. It’s like Nintendo with the switch 2 trying to harvest peoples money for a bad product. Tanks for an interesting video I didn’t know about this but now I do

In my opinion, you can make vids like this members only, They’ve shown who they are. I have a 1522+ and it’s been relegated to backing up my Asus NVME NAS. As far as I’m concerned New Synologys no longer exists. They’re like a Bugatti, impressive but requires too much to operate and maintain. I really don’t understand why they don’t just sell them with their own drives populated at this point.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
As a longtime Synology user and fan, I’ve really appreciated what they’ve brought to the NAS market over the years. However, rising prices and the increasing availability of older PCs—paired with excellent open-source solutions like TrueNAS—are making DIY NAS setups far more appealing. It’s also hard to ignore Synology’s recent shift toward proprietary drives, which feels more like a protective move than an innovation. I truly hope they course-correct, but for now, it seems they’re drifting away from what made them great.

Power consumption was an equal factor in NAS and I’m not a data hog (<4TB currently). I wanted a solution to house & own our photos & vids, so truenas+immich on a beelink mini me made sense. Cost savings over years with low power will be $50-$100/yr. Bought 4x WD 7100 4TB drives. Pricy, but ok. Portable USB drives serve as backups with USB3. Works well so far. iCloud fees will be dropped and we own this in house. Truenas makes it easy - hardware failure and it's solved with either a new Mini ME, or just use a flash drive for boot, then upload the Truenas settings, and we are rolling again!
Also having a firewall with external VPN is great for remote access.
I'm sure synology is great (like apple), but I'm not interested.

I went to Terra Master with a lot of my stuff. Has also a Hybrid RAID. For a normal NAS, I think the Software isn’t much worse. It is stable. It has a lot of Apps – Not as much as Synology, but enough for me. And I had an 8-bay plus-series NAS and a 12-bay plus-series NAS of Synology before. They devalueted my Videostation Database work because they didn’t bother and then they made the change in hard drive policy. If you make a NAS with lots of drives, the premium for the Synology drives is as high than purchasing a whole second NAS. And they are only smaller drives. Sorry. Synology has to make a big step to win me back.

I have had my Synology DS1520+ for almost five years and love it. I would not be adverse to having to buy Synology drives, as long as they are as good as the Iron Wolf drives I bought with my NAS and as competitively priced. Having said that I hate it when OEMs artificially restrict the market dynamics in this way as it always does end in tears for the OEM. Going all the way back to Sony and Betamax even though Betamax provided better quality it lost out due to the restrictive licensing arrangements for the tapes, as well as shorter recording times which I don’t remember being an issue. You then have Canon and the RF mount for full frame camera and not allowing third party manufactures make RF mount lenses. Canon has faced a barrage of criticism and they are slowly allowing other manufactures in, but have lost a lot of good will in the process and maybe market share? I have seen other businesses mess about with the brand and their marketing mix with catastrophic consequences. It could make sense for a major disk manufacturer to get into building NAS devices, a tidy bit of vertical integration and “parking tanks” on Synology’s lawn.

I’ve now given up on Synology. Homebrew NAS is what I’ve been doing lately. More powerful, excellent learning platform and generally a far better bang for the buck.

In the past I have pushed for my company to purchase Synology. Now, I would advise that they don’t touch Synology with a barge pole if I was asked.

Don’t forget that in 5 years time when you experience a drive failure the potential is that Synology might not be able to obtain a compatible spare and leave you locked-in and without a replacement drive. Happens all the time due to the dynamics of storage media.

I bought a QNAP 8 bay NAS.
Later unconverted it to (installed) TrueNAS. So now I’m running TrueNAS Community edition on QNAP hardware. TrueNAS is a big step up for me. Pro-style OS rather than simple / simplified OS approach.
BTW i was using QNAP style ZFS filesystem, which is highly proprietary vs OpenZFS, used by TrueNAS.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
There are plenty of small/ medium sized businesses where if they lose their data they are out of business. Synology has always had a better reputation in that segment than a brand like QNAP (unless one goes back to the times before either brand existed, when dinosaurs roamed the earth and we used Iomega Bernoulli drives, and back then no non-OEM disks existed for those). That is part of how Synology has been able to charge significantly more than QNAP on a regular basis for what seems to be reasonably comparable hardware. I have not seen the Synology EULA, and I presume that they are protecting themselves as much as they can, but it would be easier to deflect blame for data loss if one is using an “unsupported” or “incompatible” drive. There is more potential liability if they are selling the drives under their own brand.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
The only problem is now we’re stuck with their drives. How fast can we get a replacement when we have a failure? I don’t have any local computer store here that even carries their drives. So if my raid goes down and I need a drive fast. Does that mean I have to keep on-site spares for every single NAS I have in my organization. The whole idea this is drive firmware related is total bull crap. This is a dealbreaker. I will not buy another synology device as long as I live. Guess I’ll go with Asus or UGreen or QNAP.

My DS1520+ (5bay) is currently replaced by DXP6800 (6-bay) and my DS723+ will be replaced by DXP2800 (2-Bay). Yes: Synology DSM is more developed, but Ugreen is updating on a monthly basis their UGOS and I honestly do not miss anything, due that I will just add it as Docker Container.

The BS smell is strong with this propaganda. Anything that locks you into a proprietary model that is normally pretty generic is nothing but a lock in for their benefit. A short sighted greed that will bite them. Once they have this level of monopoly,they can dictate a lot of other stuff like annual subscriptions that you are now locked into.Also shaking down HDD manufacturers to ” add” their disks to the approved list. Remember Juicero! Synonymous with everything bad about proprietary IOT and what happens when they decide there is not enough profit in a business. Made up my mind that building my own NAS with a more powerful CPU and generic HDD is the only way to go. I have control at all times now and in the future.

First off, loved the video and love the idea of “The RAID Room”. Get this on podcast platforms that I can listen in my car! Nothing would make me happier than the smooth sounds of Robbie’s voice crusing down the freeway.
Next, your portion on the views/comments on these videos couldn’t possibly be more accurate. The only thing I’ll add is that in my case, they are literally 95% negative towards Synology. In normal videos, of course there are negative comments but generally, the positive comments outweigh the negative comments towards either the platform, video idea, etc. For Synology, it’s so overwhelmingly negative. It makes it hard to tell if there genuinely are people who don’t care about the HDD requirements or if they’re just too scared to comment, but either way, negative comments have become a staple.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Hi Robbie, while I am as cynical as the next guy, there might be a point here. For years, Synology has had this habit of crashing and burning when creating pools. You will get a critical error with no explanation on a drive that is working perfectly. this is a very common problem, especially on the DX 517 expansion box. Wipe everything, try it again, and it works fine and forever. Whether these kinds of glitches have to do with drive firmware, eSata comms or something in the OS is an unanswered question but it’s possible that Synology is just trying to get better control over their ecosystem to reduce their support load. That story would be a whole lot more believable if they weren’t charging 2X for their drives, so like I said, I’m as cynical as the next guy…

again and all is good. The one thing I’m still looking for as I have 2x Toshiba MG08 is a way
to cross flash the firmware so they are running Synology firmware and ID as Synology HDDs.
A Toshiba MG Series 12TB cost £244 on Amazon and the Synology HAT5300 12TB cost £474
The Synology HAT3310 12TB cost £246 as the Toshiba MG Series is classed as Enterprise
and the Synology HAT5300 is Enterprise that’s a better comparison to the MG Series and the
HAT3310 is more like the Toshiba N300/N300 Pro.

My problem is they only sell up to 16TB Plus drives. If I am going to eventually replace my current DS1510, they will need to provide a solution that has the newest drives available (up to 30TB) so I can efficiently use the space on the new array. My 5x16TB array is already full.

Another comment for the c**w**s in Synology leadership: I was initially really happy about my 1522+. Slightly high price for yesteryear’s hardware, but “it’s boring in the good sense, it just *works* and the OS is good”… got slightly sour when I realised non-Synology NVMes can only be used as cache if you don’t resort to hacks… and now the move towards requiring their branded not-actually-better-than-consumer drives for consumer level hardware?
I understand the requirement in enterprise setups with availability guarantees, same-day fly-in technicians (…), but for consumer products… well, f*** you, money-grabbin CEOs, I hope you get your share of videogame plumbers. I won’t buy another Synology product in my life.

REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I’ll speak up because I’m one of your viewers who frequent your channel because of its NAS-related content, but who doesn’t post many comments generally and if Synology is reading these comments…then all the better.
I own 2 Synology systems…a 1819+ and a 1821+. The latter was purchased when I saw that the 1823xs+ had an awful price-to-feature ratio and lacked features such as 2.5E that many other NAS companies embraced.
Around this time, I had also purchased an Asustech 2 bay NAS to evaluate their 2.5E product offerings and Synology was also glacially slow in approving new hard drives with greater TB capacity. (A problem which is still prevalent today…a few years later. Synology should hang their head in shame!)
I have zero interest or desire to purchase another Synology NAS. There are enough alternatives – Asustech, Ugreen, QNAP as well as TrueNAS and other solutions to turn to.
Synology had a great reputation and much goodwill in the NAS community. All of that has been destroyed with your corporate greed and questionable product decisions made these last 1-2 years.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Synology is corporate greed when it is at its worse. I have a Synology now. It is getting old. I will not buy Synology again because of the HDD lock down. Never. And it spills into business too. If you treat me badly as private I also avoid you in the large company where I have influence.

I have one issue with talking about identical architecture and that’s the switch of bus on the expansion unit. There is, potentially, a huge amount of re-testing of drives and working out the niggles, I haven’t looked into the change of bus in detail but the expansion unit is one area where there is a definite change in the product for DS923+ to DS925+.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
When I wanted to go to a rack mount chassis to replace my DS1821+ the hard disk limit was the deal breaker, my synology units are decommissioned and I’ve move to TrueNas Scale. It’s slightly more complicate but, there are youtube videos on how to configure, or you can try HexOS.

Synology seem like they’ve made the same mistake Intel did years ago – they got *too comfortable* with their position in the market and got stagnant enough to allow their competition to show them up. Intel got dropped by Apple and AMD started fighting back.
Synology have gained easy sales for years because of their software and got lazy with their hardware revisions. The community has developed alternatives since then and the hardware is becoming such a limitation to long term users that building a DIY setup starts becoming the more logical options. We’re literally at a point where a £180 mini-pc with an N100 inside offers better value for money and you can use whatever drives you want with it.
If Synology refreshed their CPU lineup, 2.5Gbps Ethernet as a minimum on every port and gave us 2-3 USB ports I think people would be less harsh about the first party drive requirement. Sure people would still be annoyed about the lockout but at least we’d be seeing an improvement in the product somewhere.

Synology will not change their mind, they’re too greedy. That’s why I made my own dyi nas instead of buying the 925.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I’m not a fan of the change but…….
My particular use case is for clients backing up their physical and virtual machines in a way that can be easily monitored and restored.
I’m mostly buying the Synology Active Backup for Business. The other options I’ve researched all either don’t have the reporting and ease of use or require recurring licensing fees that would consume and cost savings in a year.
The same software allows clients to be their own cloud backup for different locations without the cost of a cloud backup service.
I’m guessing my use case is a small sliver of their actual market. While their relative value drops with the hard drive restrictions, the value proposition remains better compared to other options that would be charging several hundred dollars a year for licensing.

They have lost me as a future customer. My 723+ became a complete brick after 9 months of light use (On double surge protected battery backup power). They RMA’d it ok but I had to pay shipping one way. Maybe I got the one dud, it happens, but the OS is the real deal breaker. (Although the whole point of the hardware choice was to have low power draw with reliability from ECC ram and a professionally designed integrated product rather than an assembly of misc parts.)
DSM7 hides a ton of configuration in proprietary database files (encrypted or otherwise not readable nor simply modifiable), and they have removed my ability to do basic admin work like setting specific user ID and group ID (Forces first come first serve sequential user creation) which causes huge problems with the way I like to use NFS and backups.
(This is after I did a contortionist act to get a true root login.) Constantly pressing a bunch of large scale security that I don’t need or want for my insulated low user count environment.
I came from a DSM5 diskstation which had a few hoops to jump through, but down deep it used standard config files and Linux admin stuff.

I’m not “okay” with it, but I’m also not so outraged I’m gonna go and stop using my unaffected 920+. I’ve read others indicate that’s what they are doing. I’m gonna use mine until I need to upgrade and will most likely find the best device for my needs at that time. I’m pretty sure it won’t be Synology… Even though I’ve been mostly happy with it.
Now if they made this change retroactive to older units… I’d be first in line for the torches and pitchforks ????

I recently needed to upgrade from 2-bay to 4-bay and bought a DS423+, the older model. Synology has the best solution for home NAS today and it pains me to see how Masters of Business Administration also got to them. They are going to step out of the home and SMB market and become enterprise and dumb users only. UGREEN and the likes will be very happy to outperform and undercut them and take the enthusiast market. So my strategy with the 423+ is to hold out until either Synology backpedals or the UGREENs of this world catch up and replace them. I believe the latter is the case. It seems clear to me that Synology decided the enthusiast market is not worth being in any more and they are going enterprise on the one hand and “plug in and forget” Beestations on the other. Their strategy is to chase out the smart enthusiast users because they are too much of a pain. That is the typical MBA thought process. We will see what happens with them, but there is nothing we can do about it as users. Stop whining about Synology, I know it is a loss and we’ve invested a lot of time and effort in them. But they no longer deserve our attention. Simply forget about Synology and go somewhere else.

Synology is dead to me.
I have always like their hardware. Their products have been very stable with a relatively low power draw, albeit under powered, but it really came down to the software that pulled me in. From example, SHR is what Synology use to stand for. They saw a gap in market and were willing to invest in new technologies to both improve HDD interoperability and remove some of the common pain points related to traditional RAID configurations.
Now Synology is a just a shell of what they use to be. I cannot think of a single feature Synology has added in the past years that I care about. On the flip side of the coin, they’ve removed hardware transcoding, support for various video codecs, proper SMART reporting, support for various USB devices, Video Station application, various application functionality (Ex: motion detection in Surveillance Station), and now general hard drive support.
It feels like the people that made Synology great have left the company, leaving behind just the management and marketing teams. They can’t really create anything new or improve things, so they just stick with existing hardware configurations and start cutting out features in the name of “stability”.
If Synology actually cared about stability, they would outline a hard drive baseline specification and allow everything that meets or exceeds it. I in particular tend to overspend on hard drives, typically opting for WD Gold drives. They are not cost effective, but they are significantly more reliable as proven by the long running Backblaze Drive Statistic reports.
According to Synology, having a hard drive with both better specifications and reliability then their some cheap rebranded drives would their system less stable over all. Yeah, no, that’s not how things work. It’s painfully obvious the new restrictions are just a cash grab. Throwing warnings and erroneous error messages on the UI didn’t work, so Synology is now trying to force our hand.
The damage is done, and Synology has no good will left over in my book. It would take years of extremely pro consumer moves and other actual improvements for me to even consider another Synology product. The cynic in me expects Synology to rebrand to try to get away from the dumpster fire they created, but that never works.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Another face-saving option for Synology is to add 3rd party drives that have been ‘certified’, and give the system the option to install the Synology firmware on. For example, you mentioned Seagate as a potential manufacturer for Synology-branded drives. If that’s the case, then Synology has their own firmware that runs on those Seagate drives. Have the system install the Synology firmware on the non-Synology-branded Seagate manufactured drives. Synology will lose out on a bit of income from their labeled drives, but they can save face that way.

Totally a moot point for me. I’m BYOing my system from here on out. Too much proprietary garbage in these systems. Specifically a motherboard. If that dies, which it did on me a few years back, you are SOL and need to buy a complete new system as QNAP, and I would have to imagine Synology doesn’t keep spare parts 6 months after they stop selling the model. Meanwhile they still supported the hardware at the software level. Here on out its TrueNAS Scale + BYO system so I can swap out whatever if needed.

I am mighty glad that about a year ago I decided to upgrades my old DS1415 to a DS1522+. Hopefully that should see me through a good few years.
Swapped the drives over no problem, added a new 16TB Ironwolf and then swapped out one on the original 6TB drives for another 16TB Ironwolf, no issues at all, my storage pool expanded and no complaints from the NAS, since added a 10GB card and it is operating wonderfully. I have no objection to using Synology branded drives but give me the choicee.
It’s akin to buying a Dell computer then wanting to add a bit more internal storage, oh no Dell have started branding hard drives and you can only use Dell branded drives. Seems such a bizarre way to carry out a business, brilliant way of making people pissed people off though!

I’d rather they let us pay a license fee per port, like extFat license, or the camera license for the DSM to ignore the compatibility requirements for that port at the cost of we forfeiting their support..
Different tier of system at different price
They still do compatibility test for different drives, but holds no responsibility
this way they get the funding for each port, and they don’t have to hoard onto large numbers of their branded old drives, providing support logistics and we get the freedom.. kind of like paying for ransom ????, but I’ll be okay with that

It’s been a couple of years since we completely switched from Synology to QNAP and all along I can see that I made the right move. Just the fact that with QNAP we taking advantage of the technology and broader software options that Synology is releasing +- 6 years apart is a reasonable enough reason not to implement Synology stuff to our SMB or enterprise customers. Then the icing on the cake is the nonsensical restrictions on their users (H264 and H265/H265+ jamming, that’s really cool when suddenly my IP cameras stop working and lock-in doesn’t even need to be mentioned) – I’m glad we avoided all that ☺
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I have to say, the prices of their HDD are quite aligned with the rest. Sometimes their 16tb HDD are even cheaper than Seagate and WD and in theory there should be less chances those are refurbished disks sold as new (there was a scandal around Seagate disks not long ago).
The story changes quite a lot with SSD. For my 1522+ I got 2 used disks for 45 Euro and it’s perfect, if I have to put Syno SSD I need to keep my child hungry to afford them.
Regarding enterprise drive I think it’s normal that level of pricing: also Dell, HPE and other players have mega prices for their HDD. Regarding the availability I can’t tell

I guest the answer is royalties , I guess Synology believe they could push WD ou Seagate or Any to share benefit with royalties , just like Apple , if you want to be used on the most largest NAS distributed brand you have to pay.

Synology DSM is excellent. The hardware isn’t. For the longest time, the biggest “compatible drive” was 16TB…in 2025, if you want a 20-22TB drive, you have to go Synology Enterprise drives and those are expensive as hell! Why not offer Plus-drives instead in those sizes? Makes no sense…
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I can’t support any view that makes hardware less serviceable, or less accessible (either by excessive price or scarcity). Both these are what Synology has created by their hard drive stance. I was always aware of the better software, but the hardware always came across as so incredibly dated compared to the competition, with very little true innovation. Compared to QNAP for example, that has average software but mostly current hardware platforms. Synology always feels like it’s targeted at iPhone users who will buy a brand “just because” and don’t think about the ecosystem lockin. I think Synology is literally trying to retarget their market away from enthusiasts, thus why they don’t care about the change.

Great video and as someone with 2x older Synology units that i’m looking to replace i have literally started looking at alternative brands and solutions.

I love my Synology’s NAS’, but have to say this Synology drive thing is a grift! I had suspicions when they deliberately excluded my 2TB Samsung NVMe memory from being used as storage preventing me from benefiting by using them for VM’s. Being 5 years now, I figure I’ll get at least another 5 out of them. At that point I’ll have to decide if I have to purchase new NAS’ anyway, will they be Synology or another brand. Who knows, UGreen will be 5 years older and mature. Then again Unifi may be a better option albeit I do wish that had a GUI OS. It’s too bad, this was a self inflicted wound.

A pure play NAS business is unsustainable in the long term as there is a limited Addressable Market and the refresh cycle is long for NAS devices – outside of techies and hobbyists, people who buy and install Synology NASs will leave them running for years and either upgrade to larger units or add more to the installed base. You would have to look at the history of Network Appliances (NetApp) and EMC. The big difference is Synology started from the consumer market and seems to be trying to graduate into the Enterprise market (EMC, NetApp) where revenue is steady and they can diversify into maintenance and Data Management. Basically they are quietly leaving the “consumer” and “prosumer” markets behind since the barrier to entry is so low. When is the last time we talked about Buffalo or Netgear NASs? People who will buy into the walled-garden Synology will not be the type to nickle-and-dime the price of components because they will pay for stability and support. InstaPot went out of business because everyone who wants one has one and the products will outlast the lifetimes of the owners.

Let the user decide if they want the extra stability offered by your drives or are willing to risk it with other vendors. I currently have over 600 WD and Seagate drives installed in Synology hardware. Been running some of them for as much as 15 years and I have NEVER lost a RAID.

My next NAS will DEFINITELY not be a Synology unless they back down over the use of their drives in the new hardware models and at the time are competitive against a (by then) well-matured UGreen O/S.

I am sure Microsoft would love to be able to dictate what ram, cpu, hard drives, gpu and cooler you can have in your PC (purchased only from their preferred partners of course) to make PC’s running their O/S safer and more reliable too…
Clearly Synology thought – “We have the Market Share – if we enforce our expensive drives we are going to make extra money. Don’t worry about the Users – they’ll just grumble for a while then accept it and still keep buying our NAS systems.” This reminds me of Sony demanding you use their memory modules etc back in the day. And do Sony still do this today ? I don’t think so. They realised it was a mistake. And how often do you see people insist on “Sony only” for quality and reliability nowdays as used to be the case ? Sony are just another player in a big pond.

I really hope they U-Turn. Perhaps they could lower the price of their proprietary HDDs as a pseudo-backtrack before allowing the rest to be natively compatible.

Great video. Ds1522+ is likely going to be my last Synology purchase unless they roll this back. Having said that I see the commerical / financial perspective at play here, though I disagree w the strategy. Which sees to shift from the DIYers to a more mainstream plug n play (Dell/Lenovo).
I would have also hoped they recognized the shift to NVMe and went hard that way. I bought a beelink me mini after watching your (and several others) review and it’s fantastic, virtually silent, power draw is low, sitting next to my DS1522+ as a backup target for critical files (family photos). I need to spend more time learning how TrueNAS works to get other services / docker apps running (maybe in December)????
Assuming Synology survives and keeps their software and apps at current standards, and when my DS1522+ dies, at maximum I will get a 2 bay system from them in the future almost as a gateway for using their apps.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Hmm. Assuming Synology is a tech company that works similarly to those I’m familiar with in other sectors…
3:12 (compatibility mods): I think it’s important to remember that a tech company isn’t a group of people who all agree with one another. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if Synology’s current direction was concocted by some management type who didn’t really understand how customers would feel, while the engineers know a train wreck when they see one. So possibly the idiots doing this don’t understand those scripts and the people in Synology who do could stop the scripts don’t want to.
As for how they backpedal from this? Like you say, it’s going to be difficult. Maybe they U-turn then wait several years for the reputational damage to subside, but the more likely option would be some kind of high-profile regime change to convince people such policies aren’t coming back. So maybe they either need to fire someone senior or even try to get the entire company acquired.

Possible Synology Strategy Using the Overton Window:
Unthinkable
Situation: A complete ban on using any third-party drives.
Actions: This measure is introduced quietly, in new models, with minimal mention in marketing materials.
Effect: Power users are outraged, protests appear on forums, but most potential customers are not even aware of the issue.
Radical
Situation: A workaround script appears, allowing any drives to be installed.
Synology’s actions: They pretend “not to notice” the script, giving time for activists to “let off steam.”
Effect: The protest shifts into a “comfort zone” — those who were most outraged have either already bought a device using the script or have lost interest in the conflict.
Acceptable
Situation: After a year or two, Synology updates the firmware, and the script stops working.
Messaging: “We did this for your security and system stability.”
Effect: No massive scandal — protestors are less active, and most device owners choose the “safe” option of switching to branded drives.
Sensible
Situation: Synology offers a “discount” on branded drives during upgrades.
Effect: Users feel the company is making concessions, and see buying Synology drives as a “beneficial choice” rather than a forced measure.
Popular
Situation: The community starts saying: “Synology drives are actually more reliable.”
Effect: Drive lock-in becomes the norm, while third-party options are seen as an exotic choice for “geeks.”
Policy
Situation: Synology officially announces: “Our devices only work with Synology-branded drives.”
Effect: This is perceived as a natural and normal practice.
Key Benefits for Synology
Time — the most valuable resource. While users believe they’ve “won” thanks to the script, the company gains extra device sales.
Market control over spare parts — once the script is blocked, many users will be forced to switch to Synology HDDs.
The habituation effect — the longer the situation drags on, the less resistance there will be when a hard lock is finally introduced.

Yup Synology is driving the pro sumers away, for a 2/4 bay NAS the extra hdd cost could be manageable but larger arrays and/or enterprise drives it is game over.

I think the majority of their hdd sales are for datacenters. I can purchase datacenter hdds cheaper then the prosumer versions, eg a WD Ultrastar costs 20% less than a red pro. Because the numbers are huge for datacenter hdds and for pc/laptop market it all went to ssd. Just my thought that they don’t feel it.

It’s fine to have drives that you vet for your own products, but to say these are the ONLY drives that will work? That’s just a company that can’t see the forest through the trees. Perhaps it’s because all they CAN see are potential dollar bills blocking their view, and think that people love it when a company forces them into a singular option that costs more money. If they would have made those synology branded drives price comparative with other brands, but also allowed other brands as usual, then things would be fine and no damage to their reputation would have occurred.

You touched on this aspect before, Robbie. The main reason the HDD lock-in policy has so angered users, is that DSM is so darned good. Those users, and myself, would prefer to remain on DSM, but feel forced to move.
Here’s a positive spin on the HDD lock-in policy. If their drives had a 10% premium, I’d buy them every day and twice on Sunday! I’d spend more to remain on DSM. However, I will not pay over 100% more, that’s just crazy. If a user wants to spend £650 on a Synology HDD when the very HDD its based on cost half that, why would they? Businesses might, but the core customer base for Disk Station products, the home and small business owner, can’t stomach that kind of price difference.
When you see such huge price disparity, it smacks of pure profiteering. Add to that, the extremely long delay from the massive storage companies in verifying their drives. Surely such companies with huge testing resources could verify their drives to Synology’s test criterion very quickly. This begs the question, are they really verifying their drives? Or, as I still maintain, are Synology evaluating the pushback to determine whether they suddenly verify the drives that have been so for years, and allow people to buy their products again.
If they wanted more profit margin, they should’ve considered the hit on sales as a result of their restrictive policy.

I simply stop looking at Synology solutions due to this move they made, period, is not user/industry friendly. Furthermore, at the start of the year, when I started looking for an upgrade of my old P.O.S. WD nas, I looked at all current solutions (minus Synology) and after months of looking into it, by far the best solution out there for anyone with a slight knowledge of tech, DIY is the best way to go, the hardware that you can use along with TrueNas Scale is way more powerful than any ready to go solutions. But at the end of the day, you do you and get what you want. This is only my oppinion. Synology shut themselves not in the foot, straight in their guts.

Their “scale up” is garbage and out of touch with a large segment of their user base that used to be loyal. Their scale up has always been as little as possible and call it a new model. Good riddance. They are irrelevant for the newer markets that UGREEN and others are providing much better hardware and value. Even if they dropped the hardware validation garbage their still not a good value. They need to switch to low power H class intel CPUs and vpro.

Here is my theory… Synology decided they wanted to become the “Apple” of the NAS world. You want to use our software? Right, then you can only use our hardware. Apple can pull this off because they make beautiful products that are status symbols, look beautiful, and people use the whole time. I’m not sure you can “do an Apple” if your product lives in a server closet.

BANG ON about lack of comments, it’s essentially impossible to leave comments on smart tv’s.
On top of this, when you’re in a playlist, there’s no comment field or even thumbs up/down. For example when I click “Watch Later” when browsing my feed to collect up videos to watch while eating (for example), I go to my Watch Later feed and it takes manually pausing a video to get those to appear, but unless I link my phone and have it active in the YT app while watching on TV I can’t vote or comment.
As for the topic at hand, yeah I think DIY’rs and hobbyists have given up on Synology as way overpriced. And “proprietary” drives makes it even worse.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
The biggest concern going forward with Synology, at least from my home/prosumer perspective, is uncertainty with where the product and company is going.
Their competitive advantage is DSM software, yet have continually eroded the non-business feature set update by update, likely due to still running ancient 4.4 linux kernel. They started selling support contracts requiring branded drives, normal for enterprise storage solutions, while saying those restrictions won’t apply elsewhere, until it applied only to rack mount devices and subsequently now all 2025 and future devices. They tell us they want to expand further into the enterprise market yet still sell bottom barrel spec’d 1-2 bay non-plus NAS units businesses don’t buy.
So Synology wants to consolidate the home/prosumer offerings into an enterprise business model, but are they going to provide any better service that enterprise offerings typically command? When their rebranded hard drives fail, will you get same/next-day replacements commensurate with enterprise support? If their hard drive supplier suffers a bad batch of drives, how would they handle it for all their home-enterprise customers? Drop it on the lap of their supplier? Blame the home-enterprise customer for not keeping spare drives that may also potentially be faulty? Should the home-enterprise customer be required to have a second synology device for backup with synology branded, faulty drives as well?
Synology wants their cake while beating the horse that got them to where they are. It’s dead, Jim.

I’m very new to the NAS game, Synology was my way to go………until I heard they all will only work with there own drives (I know better now of course) but that “rumor” put me right off and I went QNAP.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I don’t get it. If you like/need what Synology has to offer then buy them, if not, buy from the competition.
What’s the big deal? HDD compatibility has been an issue for some years now. I’d rather have their branded drives that I know will work than some random drive that I have to take a chance on.
I’ve zero interest in tinkering and I just upgraded one of my 4-bays with Synology plus drives to be able to migrate them when I upgrade my NAS hardware in a year or so.
I also have no interest in changing to another manufacturer because Synology does everything I want it to d, if it didn’t I would just buy something else.
Also the plus drives are very competitively priced I think and as far as I can see they are Toshibas so they should be good as far as quality goes.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I’m one of those guys who hardly ever comment.
I’ve got an old 418. But things changed and it was time to expand. Behind it was a 1xx for the backups. I wanted a new nas and move the 418 as a backup. Was interested in a 5 bay as a main. Money was a bit short so I started to save up. The rumours of new nas-systems came alive and all of a sudden there was the leaked specs. 2.5gb standard was a very interesting thing. Didn’t like the hard drive compatibility.
I sucked it up and deceived to stay with Synology because of their dsm. The price of the plus series wasn’t that much higher. Deceided to go with the ds1525+ with 3 Synology drives. It does everything I want and it is a big improvement. The 418 is my new backup-solution (yes, I also have an offsite solution)
My standing on this. 3rd-party would be nice, as not a must. The plus series are to small. If I replace my 418 I can’t do that with a 2bay solution. Because of the limitations of the plus-series at 16tb I need a 4 drive. And that will be a lot more expensive. It’s going to look like my 1525 will be the last Synology if they stay with this roadmap of their own drives.
Yes, I would wave support with non-Synology drives but I’m not willing to pay those gigantic amounts for disks over 16tb from Synology themselves.
I agree with everyone that they made a bad choice. It will hurt them in sales. They have to come up with a solution quick or they will be the dinosaur in the market, they shoot themself in their feet.
I do like your channel, keep up the good work.

I bought the first synology in 2012 and had 6-7 different models over the years, mostly 5 and 8 bays. Was waiting for the 2025 +models to make the next upgrade. However since the hdd issue hasn’t changed yet I’m very close to buy a 8 bay ugreen… it seems their apps are pretty good now.

I’ve lost ALL TRUST in Synology. They haven’t given us any decent hardware in years, they’ve been removing software features over the last few years, and now they’ve locked down their systems.
I see absolutely no reason to choose them over their competition. I can buy a UGreen device (I won’t, no Chinese hardware in my network, hard pass) and drop TrueNAS on it, I can just build my own NAS altogether and put TrueNAS or Unraid on it, I can get a Ubiquiti UNAS pro and a mini-pc to have far more flexibility and performance, etc. And I can do all of that for a fraction of the price even BEFORE I take into account their incredibly overpriced drives.
It was a good run, but I’m moving on for good now. I hope their profit margins reflect their terrible decisions.

Hi there this was great video and i fully agree with you. I my eyes Synology chosen wrong path. My next NAS will not be Synology. In last 3 years they made several bad decisions and i do not trust them. I love Seagate hdd and i want to use them in my next NAS. You name it TrueNAS or QNAP are good choice. DMS was easy to setup especially to you.????. We familiarly call you the guy with gold digiwatch who quite often talks to seagals.
But when you learn ubuntu, proxmox, docker and other apps why would you bother to buy overpriced HW without be able to use Seagate hdd with less stuff on DMS then three years ago. E.g limitations of cameras and h.264 or h.265 codecs. Once again thanks for the video and for your role in the NAS community.

I have a DS214se that I noticed recently doing some large transfers (~100GB) will not connect at the speed of my network (1Gbps), only 100Mbps, so getting only 11MB/s transfer speeds (ugh). Looking around at the new models for a quick replacement I stumbled across this issue. Other relatively recent models are hard to find and just about as pricey as the new ones. Ended up going for a TerraMaster F2-424 which I scored for ~US$275, has way better specs than the options I was looking at for the similar price of what I paid for the TM (not to mention my 214se), should work with my existing WD Reds (and also NVME drives!), and could give me a modest bump in perf when I upgrade my switches to 2.5G soonish.

I like this format for going deep on such issues. I also had noticed how easy it would be for synology to interfere with the script “hack” and noted that they had not (I use a 1522+ with WD Reds). I’d never heard anyone pay attention to that glaring fact before.

Biggest question for Synology: is their software good enough to stand on its own against separately available software like truenas and the likes?
Their hardware looks nice, but on the inside it is basically standard pc architecture.
If they have balls and are convinced of the quality of their products they should sell their hardware and software as separate products and compete on merits.
Going for a closed ecosystem looks nice if you are at the top of the foodchain like apple, but I don’t think most buyers in this age are willing to commit themselves to proprietary products.

I’ve said before, I’m fine if they back the requirements to a warning instead, if/when you use a drive that is not on their list. The way it does today. I’m not fine with losing the warranty, but I could understand that they restrict it to their hardware.

They will either back out or ask for a subscription or licence cost to unlock the feature. For me as a home user I won’t be buying them anymore like many others I’ll just build it or get another Qnap Ugreen etc be good to see if it hits their revenue figures and Qnaps grows

REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Synoology is past being able to rely on their hardware alone to drive sales – They’ve been living on their software for quite awhile now. Let’s face it, the upgrade path isn’t that compelling just on hardware specs or capabilities (we still don’t have onboard transcoding support for example), and they have continued the mediocrity into their own media, which either seems out of date or just overpriced. Like many dead companies before them, they decided to create a walled garden rather than innovate. The low-end is not worth it – it’s really crowded and Terramaster (for example, pick your favorite) competes well there. Mid-teir (4 bay) for SMB purposes is probably low margin for them, so applying the “razor blade” principle (not a perfect analogy) in media lock-in is obvious but damaging in the long-term. And while true enterprise class machines are profitable, they just haven’t been able to compete in the world vs. “true” storage solutions which just frankly outperform anything they have ever offered. They’re not NetApp.

When I started researching to buy my first NAS I was leaning toward Synology. I was leaning that way primary due to Synology having a large media presence, they advertised everywhere, and the large numbers of online groups dedicated to them.
What started to push me away from them was the initial rumors that they were heading toward restricting options to their own branded drives. I am a big advocate for right to repair and manufacturers restricting a consumers options to their own branded solutions is a huge red flag to me. To be clear I agree and have no heartache with companies offering their own branded products. But the line is where it becomes the only solution available.
I ended up going with QNAP. Yes, I read the security vulnerability stories and checked the CVEs on them and others. Still I went with them and as my first, and hopefully only ever NAS. I’m comfortable with my choice.

In my opinion because Synology is restricting which hard drive’s I can use I will never purchase a Synology NAS or their hard drive’s because they’re just rebranding some else’s hard drive’s and then jacking up the price because their name is on it which is BS !!!!!!!!!!!! In my opinion Synology NAS’s are NO BETTER than Qnap, Asustor, or any of the other NAS’s on the market to justify the price they ask for their NAS’s and to require we use only their hard drive’s and also their software isn’t that special either !!!!!!

Active Backup for Business is a Synology killer app for me, especially given that it supports PC and Mac … I don’t think there’s another manufacturer which has an equivalent product which includes deduplication of backups … if my Synology kit was to go pop tomorrow, I’d either fix it or get a used one – with these seemingly ever increasing restrictions they’re gradually killing off the “ease of use” which is what makes them attractive to home/prosumer uses in the first place.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Something that has hardly been addressed is that a drive is not the same as another drive. I’ve experienced compatibility issues with hard drives and raid controllers. Even when using drives that are on the hardware compatibility list. I worked building, among other things, storage servers. We used raid controllers from Adaptec, LSI, 3Ware and some other that I can’t remember the name of. And when I say storage servers we are talking about 16, 32 or more drives. I think 120 drives was the largest server I built. But we always was checking the HCL for compatible drives, and even then we sometimes ended up with an install where the drives would start failing in the arrays and the solution was to get a new firmware and install it on every drive. In one case WD replaced over 150 drives that was used in a customers servers, which was nice of them. But it took quite a while to physically replace every one. In another case I was updating the drive firmware on all drives on a number of servers using a software packet from Adaptec. It was not something they released to customers usually but we got pretty good support from them after doing a lot of bug testing of new controllers for them.
Having a small number of drives that were guaranteed to actually work with the controllers would have saved us a lot of money.
And these companies only made the RAID controllers, we built the machines and the customers all came to us when things went wrong.
Synology is building the NAS units, so any complaints get sent their way. Drive failures and such make them look bad, especially if the drives are on the HCL. So having their own branded drives that has been thoroughly tested with their units is a good way to cut back on the “stupid” complaints when a drive manufacturers drives start to fail because they updated the firmware to solve some other issue.
Yes a lot of the time the drives failed because they had a newer firmware than the one they had when tested for the HCL list. And backing down the firmware is often not a good reason as they are updated because they have identified some other problem. So you have to contact the manufacturer and hope that they can whip up a further improved firmware that’s also compatible with the storage solution you use.

I am still torn over Synology’s decision… I don’t like it on principle so I am thankful that my DS1520+ is new enough, and expandable, that I really won’t have to worry about this for many years to come. I will still have Synology on the list to consider in the future as I like the ease of ABB, Photos, and Drive. But if another company has similar bundled offerings when I need to update I would likely switch to them.

As a 918+ owner, I was waiting for a refresh of the RS1221 series to upgrade and swap in the old drives I’ve retired with SHR to shift from desktop to rackmount.

This feels like what Cisco did with the old Linksys WRT line, where they totally supported higher NVRAM for around 2 models for the enthusiasts and modders before just throwing everyone under the bus and abandoning the idea. Since then, Linksys has faded from memory for many…

There are 9 Plus series desktop models, and 8 rack mount models. That is excessive, very excessive. If money is an issue, they need to pair down their models. If you look at their XS/XS+ line, there are 7 models across desktop AND rack mount. It’s the same for all of their other lines. The plus series is where they try to make a model for everyone that cares. That tells me they probably sell a ton of that series. I can see them trying to squeeze more profit out of the line. What I don’t understand is why they would do that with rebranded drives that someone else makes vs finding ways to make more profit with the NAS itself, which they do make. Profit on a drive has to be pretty thin, even buying them in bulk. I don’t understand why they would not streamline the number of models and look for ways to produce their plus series more efficiently.

I have a few things to say! …oh, Raid room, not Rage room….sorry.
There can be good reasons for a company to go proprietary in their stack, but normally you want to offer customers a carrot, not just a stick.
If I recall correctly, Synology claimed that the branded setup resulted in fewer customer service calls. If that is objectively true, Synology should have no problem offering extended warranty for a “branded only” system, that would be an example of a value-added service that customers should consider.
Or offer other add-ons, such as purchases of Synology drives would get free or discounted licenses for Surveillance Station.
Or by buying Synology branded disks you get cloud storage or other benefits in their Synology Cloud portfolio.

I belong to the (probably smaller) group of people who can live with Synology hard drives. Since I also use my DS1821+ for business, I would like a stable system with well-designed software. Speed is not such a high priority for me. Until now, I have had HGST and WD hard drives in my NAS. However, I have now started buying larger Synology hard drives and using them. The goal is to replace all 8 hard drives with Synology drives. When I want to upgrade to the new DS1825+, I can then use the existing hard drives without any problems. I will then use the old HGST and WD drives in the old 1821+ as a backup.
I don’t need enterprise drives, so the price difference for the Plus series is negligible.

It’s clear that someone in Synology’s upper management decided a while back to target the large enterprise, and changed the direction for new hardware in the consumer and, newer, enterprise space. Toward that end, they’re now pushing a premium paid support tier.
Interesting set for the RAID Room. Much more to look at then the [bad] hex tiles we usually see behind you. Add a bed and it would look much like my place.
Robbie, in your “30TB Drives are too big” video you compare costs between a big drive and a handful of smaller ones. What I think you left out is the cost of a NAS bay. Seemingly, the price of a plastic tray, SATA/power connector and a few cubic inches of air is generally well above $100. So, adding a handful of small drives adds a handful of $100++ drive bays as well.

If Synology aren’t watching you, they’re terminally stupid.

After careful consideration over the last few months I am in the camp of “I don’t like what Synology are doing, but I see the value in the marriage of the Synology software and hardware functioning together as one entity with proper vendor support”.
Sure I can host Immich, Plex, Pihole, other open source apps etc etc etc etc in a Docker container on another system, but I have been bitten before where an automated update on the container fails, or the vendor releases a major update that requires the container to be updated/reconfigured manually, not confident what I’m doing/trying to follow ambigous instructions on a forum written by some script kiddie and break the container. If I’m not confident or familiar with the process of troubleshooting and fixing Docker containers using command line, now I have inaccessible data in a broken container.
For my critical data that I want to be available to me for the next 50+ years, I want it stored somewhere where if there is a problem I can go to Synology and say “This is your software, running natively on your hardware, please fix it.”

18TB Synology $650
18TB UltraStor $230 from Amazon
Synology Drives are nearly 3 TIMES the cost
(cue Darth Vader music) I am altering the deal. Pray it is not altered any further

Let’s say WD, Toshiba, and the like have to make an effort to get on the compatibility list. But they actually have no interest in participating in this shit and simply say no thanks.

I had less of an issue with their policy change after I checked the Plus series pricing. There are advantages to getting fully integrated and supported hardware from the same manufacturer, but the Enterprise drive pricing is/was just too prohibitive.
I think you should call this segment “RAID Rant”. ????

It’s a bit of mixed bag. Synology had even with the old 18 series had a big difference between official ram size support and what users reporting to work. I where looking to buy a bigger and newer Synology but I keep my 718p going and have went with a Terramaster f6-424 max that goes with standard memory, nvme drives and harddrives. I’m free to install whatever I can figure out to install. I think Synology might change their business modell if they see to many customers backing away and go for alternatives.

For me, I’ll likely keep a smaller Synology box around for some basic backup stuff. But I’ll no longer have a larger 4 or 5+drive Synology. For the heavier lifting stuff I’ll setup some other server solution from now on. In the end, this means I’ll be spending LESS On Synology than before.

Like the video. Initially I thought the idea was that they would lock the drives to their own firmware so that down the road they could offer better support to their customers. Yesterday I just got an email from Synology offering “Premium Support”!! (no pricing yet)
They are a company that are trying to squeeze as much money as possible out of everyone, I can’t see it work, they are just driving people away. I still trust their software but I’m starting to look to other vendors (except for qnap, got burnt too many times).

I nearly purchased a basic synology nas for simple cloud storage to replace my onedrive. I chose not to and went with another makers product it does the job but it runs the two 1tb drives I already had. Am I happy yes, would I have prefered a nice synology nas to run DSM which seems to be very good Yes. But my Nas works does the basic job and can store my photos. Im a basic user but my brain still cant get past a maker who stops you upgrading with drives you already own which lets face it should run in every system as they 1tb drives I had ran fine in three difference PCs I had.

Really good video, imo. From a DIY’er perspective this is horrible that they are limiting drives. I have 4 Synology NAS devices running, 1 retired, 2 at home, 1 at work. From a Synology trying to capture the SOHO, and mid biz segments, it makes sense. Fewer configs to test/validate, provide small/mid office a true turn key solution, and you can sell support.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Same with the Synology security cameras, they need to add more models with additional features (PTZ, optical zoom, color night vision, Wi-Fi, LPR, etc).
Synology HDDs needs to keep up with the capacity available if they won’t allow 3rd party drives.
Or add 3rd party support back!

i cant afford and will not buy proprietary drives. I try to purchase the best deal per mb cost for size. I like synologys shr format but thats it. i wish synology would back pedal on their own drives. I think its a money grab as once you buy the nas you dont buy anything else from them and it last for years. I have one of their nas thats ten years old. It still just works and im happy with it. But I wont buy another that uses their own drives.

If you have drives on the compatibility list then you get free tech support. If you have Drives on the non compatibility list its a small but fair fee for tech support. If you mod the synology, no support. I would be ok with that, but you will never convince me my enterprise drives are not going to be compatible when they have been stable as hell for 4 years. I run a business off my Synology and I went with Synology for the simplicity of the apps, the ones we use, mainly Drive just work. I know I am paying to much for the outdated hardware in the box, but if mine fails I can buy another one, move the drives and be back up and running in 48 hours or less. Well now that is not possible and so I am already working on a alternative, because I do not like this approach. Once I find a solid alternative for Synology Drive, I will move that way.

The #1 reason why I don’t comment, is that usually it’s a waste of time. I can spend time sharing my thoughts, but what’s the point if they will never be read?
Many creators claim they read all comments, but in my experience it’s rarely the case. It may happen when there are only a handful of comments under a video, but with hundreds of comments, or under a video which is more than a few days old, chances that *anybody* will ever see what I wrote are abysmal.
I understand, engagement is important for for creators, but it goes the other way as well. Instead of spending my time on bumping the counter from 12345 to 12346, I’ll rather so something more productive, like watching another video.

Currently using a Synology DS920+. My use case is primarily backups, archival storage, and large file transfers (4tb+). Its taking 9 to 10 hours for some of the file transfers I need to do on a regular basis, and that is causing a serious loss of productivity for me. I was considering moving to the 925+ but that is off the table for me now. I will likely move to a m.2 NAS such as the TerraMaster F8 – its a beastly expensive solution, but I really need to prioritize speed over cost. Really disappointed in Synology, I like their OS and it has served me well for many years – they have just failed to keep up IMHO.

Interesting video… It makes no sense to have to patch a new system (and loose support) just to be able to use hdd’s that are probably 99,999% the same as the synology hdd’s. As you mention they are not only more expensive but also quite difficult to find. Anyway, they lost me when they removed the excellent DS vidéo package. If you are pushed to go to Plex to get some stable and decent video platform, you are also pushed to any simple other NAS that supports Plex as good as Synology for a fraction of the price.

I don’t care that Synology devices require Synology drive. I appreciate stability. My DS920+ was very slow with 4 WD disks that were not on compatibility list. Once I replaced just two of them with WD disks from the compatibility list, it’s like a switch has been flipped. The NAS is very fast!
I bought a sa6400 for work with 12 Synology drives. It works ok. Software is not up to snuff though. Backup for Mac is terrible. The manual routing table is ignored after reboot and I have to fiddle with it, etc.
I would probably avoid Synology because their offering feels stale and they don’t rise to their promises

I enjoyed your RAID Rage Room discussion. The issue for me, as I do a vaguely similar job (but not as detailed) to you, is that I have a super-hard time recommending a brand that throws parts of its user-base under the bus, almost without comment. Yes, I can see that Synology doesn’t make a huge amount from the one and two-bay NAS, but surely they’re there to create a brand loyalty that then takes people to the next level? No first step leads to no second step; it ultimately damages high-end sales because someone didn’t start the journey to that hardware. Sales numbers must be telling a story that few in the company can ignore, but instead of communicating how the drive compatibility issue is a temporary glitch, the company is doubling down. Next move, I assume, is to contact all their previous customers who never bought Synology-branded drives and tell them how wrong they’ve been. Synology has a few months left to fix this to the satisfaction of its user base, or there will be no way back, ever.

Synolgoy lost me as a customer when my first NAS (DS920+) didn’t officially support NVMe storage pools.
I never would have bought it if i knew this was the direction they would be headed at this point.

I was going to replace my DS918+ with a DS925+. But the thing that Synology did halted my purchase… I now might go with a DS923+ or just wait and see how UGreen is evolving. Even though a DS925+ with 4x16TB Synogogy drives is not a lot more expensive than with 16TB drives of WD/Seagate/Toshiba, I don’t like the uninclusiveness of their decision….
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
They can’t fix this any more in my opinion, they have lost all my business since even if they walk this back there is no guarantee they won’t try it again in one or two years. They have made it clear to me that they are an untrustworthy company. Btw, I have no issues with them having their own drives, nor do I have an issue with them forcing those drives on companies that have an agreement with them on their hardware, but forcing it on regular consumers is beyond dumb. They know how many of those customers they had, the greed just got the better of them.
I just installed my Aoostar WTR Max a couple of weeks ago, which I put some SSDs in and got a Terramaster F8 for my parents to finally swap out their ancient Synology 712+. I still have 2 Synologies running here (1819+ and 1520+) that I will keep for the foreseeable future (one is my main storage and one as backup), but there will never be an other Synology NAS in my house end of story.
I really don’t understand why they didn’t just got out of the consumer market instead, just remove all the plus and non-plus devices from your catalogue and be done with it. It is a really bad time when a company tries to be Apple, one of those arrogant companies is too many as is.

My latest theory is that this measure isn’t aimed at consumers but at HDD manufacturers. The fact that Synology plans to certify drives of other manufacturers could be read that way. That certification won’t be free and Synology has some leverage because NAS is a place where HDD’s still rule. Easy money for Synology. They probably didn’t count on the backlash from consumers though.

OK enough of the pearl clutching and crystal ball gazing. Plus and Enterprise series are intended for business use. In order to provide an SLA as a provider, as you must if you are providing service management in that environment then using branded hardware is essential. For example, try using anything other than Cisco spares in your Cisco equipment and see how far you get with a service call or RMA. From ’25, Synology now making a statement about operating in the same space.
Its absolutely normal behaviour in enterprise service management, end of discussion, period. If gear goes bad, lets say a drive fails while the equipment is under a service agreement, log a case, RMA the drive and a new one appears as if by magic. Try it with other branded disks, you are going to be out of luck with your service request. Perfectly reasonable.
As for the price of enterprise hard drives and especially enterprise SSD, check against other enterprise equipment providers. These drives are completely different to regular drives and they are all priced according. From the internet: Cisco 200GB 2.5 SATA Enterprise performance SSD. aud $4,400.00. Yep, that’s the price for a 200GB Cisco drive. Riverbed 240 GB Solid State Drive. usd $3,388.00/aud$5,215.80. Synology SAT5210 7TB 2.5″ SATA Enterprise SSD aud $3000.00-ish. So lets have some perspective about how the Synology branded enterprise drives are “expensive”. In enterprise land they represent solid value compared to competitors.
If you are a labbist and you want to tinker and use old drives you’ve dragged out from under the bed and especially if you want to use another NAS OS, go buy UGreen. The Ugreen DXP4800 Plus looks like the hobbyists friend as it happens. Fast, flexible, easy to run another OS, doesn’t care what drives it runs, relatively inexpensive, does both 2.5 and 10 GbE. It’s not been around long enough to establish itself as something you could trust your data with long term however.
But if you just need something that’s going to work reliably at managing your files and backups without hassle, Synology. And if you want business or enterprise grade hardware, just buy the Synology drives and move on.

REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Hard drive manufacturers: Gonna disagree with your take on this one. DIY folks will still have to buy hard drives no matter what direction they go so I don’t see a hit on their sales.
Synology “could” say: “Look, validating 3rd party drives is taking longer than expected so we’re going to allow these drives (then list of 3rd party drives popular with their customer base) – with possibly reduced warranty coverage.”.
But I do agree they have burned some bridges – about the only thing that may get trust back is to publicly cane the executive that came up with the idea then roll back this idea.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
hot take- they could step back from this in one simple way: offer additional benefits by using their “approved” drives instead of blocking usage of other drives. IE: extra warranty if you use their drives, or 1:1 cloud backup capacity of their approved drive etc. also, loved this content, keep the raid room around, this episode was great.

I kind of have a different view point to what you are discussing at 9min in re: types of users this upsets. It’s not just the entry level or non tech or home lab crowd being screwed over.
The great thing about synology as a sys admin for a company was it was super easy so it was one less thing to think about. Cost was not a major issue as the price of the combined system + disks wasn’t obscene compared to self built. But now due to the larger capacity enterprise disks being mad expensive they have pissed people like me off. People who do know how to use truenas and therefore know the convenience doesn’t outweigh the extra cost anymore so they have shot themselves in the foot. Just 1 project at work I was speccing during this change lost them like 18k euro… I hope others vote with their (companies) wallets and this backfires!

It’s been mentioned in the comments for other videos, but worth mentioning here as well. Speaking as a home user who needs storage for backups, media, and whatever else, Synology is (was) a go-to brand. But as an enterprise IT executive, I would not entertain the possibility of using Synology as an enterprise solution. Most of our services are in the cloud. Anything on-prem would use a more established solution/vendor. From my perspective, Synology doesn’t know who they are as a company, and isn’t making rational choices around its business and customer base. They’ll change their tune when the experience enough loss because caused by their poor decisions.

At this point, it is reasonable to assume that Synology will either *back out* of the drive restriction or *double down* on it.

I would suggest that there are some fundamental weaknesses in your profitability argument. I’ve been an accountant going on 40 years now although not in a manufacturing environment. 1) For starters, the vast bulk of development costs are sunk costs; ie, they were paid out a long time ago. Once that money has been spent, there’s no way to recover it. You have to hope that your future sales will be sufficient to recover them. So, going forward, the only costs that matter are manufacturing and distribution. Without including the amortizing of those dev costs, they likely make a rather decent profit. 2) Next up is the spreading of dev costs over many models, plus models and otherwise. Sometimes companies will develop a product knowing that the profit margins will be slim to nil ; they do this so knowing that at least some of the dev costs will be absorbed by those less than profitable models. It’s not always the best strategy but, when the dev costs are able to be spread over a far greater number of models, then the overall profitability rises. There are lots of other accounting thoughts that come to mind but I think that sort of makes the point. Accounting is both art and science, or so we were taught and it’s not as black and white as we might think sometimes. Now, about that 8 x 30 Tb NAS in my guest room and those related costs…

I’d be amazed if Synology hadn’t already had those discussions with, at the very least Seagate regarding the Plus range, and Toshiba and Western. Just bought a DS1525+ with 5x8TB HAT3310 and another 4x16TB HAT3310 for my old DS918+, the price for everything was very good, and even a little bit cheaper than if I’d bought either Ironwolf or Red drives (new). TBH I’m not too bothered for these work NAS about drive lockin, at the lower price I would have just got Synology drives anyway. If anything, the only thing that might concern me is future availability issues if a drive goes bad!

I’m a long time Synology user and would have carried on being a Synology user if it wasn’t for the nonsense of being forced to use Synology drives in any new NAS. Since I am in the market for a new NAS … I built my own and left Synology where it belongs – in the dustbin of history. My new NAS/Server/wnatever-you-want-to-call-it was easy to build and of course I had my choice of hard-drives to add to it. Those were the drives I have been buying for years and years and until now have been putting into Synology NAS – WD Red Pro and Ironwolf Pro, and of course I have far more trust in those as brands that I do Synology, since as far as I can tell Synology drives are just rebranded Toshiba drives. While I was buying my WD Red Pro and Ironwolf drives I could see some Synology own-brand drives in the lists on the website I was buying from – they were uniformly more expensive than Western Digital or Seagate drives and in my opinion of lesser quality. So it’s a profit grab by Synoloogy. Good luck to them but I am now an ex-customer and will not be coming back whatever they do.

I was looking to replace my aged DS416 a couple of months ago. Dropped the idea of buying new synology nas as soon as I’ve heard the news.

Synology’s message seems pretty obvious – they’re no longer interested in the home consumer market…
There are other options, like UGREEN, and I’m sure they’ll be only too happy to take on lots of new customers, listen to us, and grow and improve their hardware/software even more! I’ve already made the change.

You probably want to paste those scripts in yourself at 14:50. You probably don’t want to run scripts from the internet at boot as the source could change to a nefarious one in the future.

You might want to add the -p option to your mkdirs to eliminate the errors when you run it a second time. Just a little cleaner.

Old Synology. Create pool. Move HDD to new Synology.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
When I tried to use the start_telnet endpoint I got {“success”:false}. Do you know what could cause that? did they patch it already? (I am using DS1825+ Version 7.2.2-72723)
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Concerns are, what happens when they update DSM and potentially close the telnet backdoor to allow the initial setup?
Hoping they allow more drives, but I think they’ve done the damage to themselves and many people will not buy their products again.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
The only advantage of Synology disk storage was that the system worked “out of the box.” Currently, there are a huge number of solutions that allow you to create disk storage on any hardware and in any conceivable or inconceivable configurations. But this is more for technically savvy people and those who want to work with such systems. For the majority of users who use disk storage at home, Synology was a good alternative. However, it’s also worth remembering that for home users, who typically use 2-3-4 disk systems, this isn’t a business; it doesn’t bring benefits or profit. A solution like this (with disk locking) is completely unacceptable, for example, for me when I need to replace four 12 TB WD RED PRO drives. And only thanks to the laziness of many people and their unwillingness to look for a good alternative can Synology still be considered a “home” device, although in my opinion, it’s a detrimental solution. For this reason, I’ll stick with old Synology devices for now, but I’ll be looking for an alternative in the future.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Is there a way to bypass all of this nonsense? I guess ‘Jailbreaking’ your Synology?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I listen to it all. Love your attention to detail.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
My DS414play isn’t playing nice with new drives anymore, causing load cycles every 3 seconds despite running the current DSM patch. As I’m writing this I’m replacing it with a QNAP device since Synology, by requiring me to buy relabled Toshiba drives for twice the price, have priced themselves out of my budget altogether.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I listened to your disclaimer. 🙂
I bought a new DS1525+ a few weeks ago. All documentation I saw showed that synology released around that time indicated that third party drives may not fully work. They never said they were locking them out 100%. They did say that if you use third party drives then there would be no warranty.
I obviously did not find this video three weeks ago.
So I returned the ds1525+.
I liked this video, but honestly, like what you said in the disclaimer, it may break at any time in the future at the whims of synology. After this scam, I do not trust them and I do not want to lose my data. I have a life, and I do not see myself trying to babysit their policies over the next few years. It’s not worth the risks.
I would love to see many others buy their NASs and then just return them. Maybe they may get the hints and reverse their toxic policies.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I’m thinking: Before Synology’s 25-models were released, their new drive-policy was proclaimed.
So why buy a new Synology 25-model NAS when you know your drives aren’t compatible and engage in this cat and mouse game; quite surely Synology will put an end to this command line scripting in the near future.
Instead you could do one of three things:
1. Delay the buy of a new Synology 25-model NAS until the compatibility-list is finished
2. Buy the new Synology NAS but not newer than the 24-models
3. Buy a new NAS from another brand
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Well I predict Synology will change their policy re drive compatibility (it put me off a purchase) BUT… once loyal customers have left a simply change of heart by Synology might not be enough to win them back. If I go the trouble of getting familiar with another OS I’ll be P.Off and won’t be coming back…
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
So I recently bought a DiskStation DS1825+ and I migrated from a 5 bay device. I had 3 more drives to add and I was really upset at the issue mentioned, but I ran all the commands and it cleared the issue! I went over and even donated, this really helped me out and my users!

When it’s time to replace my DS920+ I’ll just buy a competitors unit. Why would I want to do business with a company pulling this crap.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Today, this trick no longer works for Synology
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
The instructions also work if you want to use unapproved internal M.2 NVMe drives for something other than cache on a 923+.
That said, …
Downloading a script from a website that you do not control and then running it automatically (and unsupervised) upon every reboot (or ever) is poor security and business continuity practice. Even assuming the best of intentions of the person/people behind the external website/repo/etc. today:
1. The website/repo/etc. could be hacked.
2. The website could become unavailable — to your client even if not globally.
2. A future update to the script might contain an inadvertent bug that causes problems for you.
I once knew of a significant website outage caused by downloading a JavaScript library from an external website each time the web service was restarted. One day, the external website ceased to exist and the web service would no longer start.

Thanks for the tutorial I doubt I will be upgrading to a new Synology NAS….
As I have said many times…. The entire POINT of a NAS with multiple bays is to protect against Hard Drive failure.
There is no excuse for demanding “their” drives. and any excuse they might give just makes them look worse.
Is there new line of NAS soooo delicate that it cannot handle the wide range of sizes and power draw?
Or is Synology doing something more nefarious like phoning home data samples direct off the drives.
Maybe even bypassing any encryption you may choose to run on them?
Obviously I have no way of knowing…. but when companies do something like this with such a contrived excuse…
It calls everything they do into question

Synology is behaving as if it has a monopoly on consumer NAS devices and can get away with charging a premium for old hardware and forcing customers to use their over-priced re-badged hard drives.

Synology will likely only add other brands once not doing it financially hurts them.. right now they are making extra money from their own branded drives… if it costs them financially by people just not buying their products at all, then they will add the established brands to it. All they really have to do in order to satisfy their customers is to say that other brands are at your own risk and unlock them… but no, then they wouldn’t sell any Synology hard drives.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I hope to god … this goes viral.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
A win win for Synology. They still get to sell you the hardware but save money on refusing to support you. This doesn’t change the facts of the uninspiring ’25 releases from a performance perspective, they are still using old chipsets and slow Ethernet ports compared to the competition.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
No… Risking my data like that is not realistic.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
So when they push out an update and you get a message your NAS is no longer available and you can’t access any of your precious data you’ll have to pray that Synology will actually help you recover everything when you are using unauthorized drives and you’ve hacked and “patched” your NAS. Something tells me they won’t and I don’t expect NASCompares or Dave Russell will either. The only way this may be viable is if you disable all DSM updates and block the NAS to use an internal network only. Even with your disclaimer I can’t see this as viable for all but the smallest internal network.
Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should. Either buy Synology drives and cough up the extra or else if you want to use any drive then choose a different brand of NAS. I am totally against Synology’s push to lock out other drives but getting back at them with this to enjoy a Nelson Muntz “Ha Ha” moment is fraught with potential risk.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
This is a great band-aid for people who bought this model without knowing about Synology’s betrayal. I would never recommend this model so somebody with the caveat that they would have to use this script and hope that Synology doesn’t break it. I’ll say it again: IF I CAN’T USE THE DRIVES I CHOOSE IN THE NAS THAT I BOUGHT, DO I REALLY OWN THE PRODUCT?

When you need to hack a device / OS to use it, it’s not the right device for you.
Honestly, buy their drives or buy something else. It is never a good Idea to run a “hacked” system.

Taking a script _directly_ from a 3rd party GitHub repository _each time_ a device boots up is *very insecure* . First of all, this leaves you up to the mercy of the owner of that repository (and that their intents do not become malicious one day), and secondly, it can also happen that their repository is compromised by hackers. If any of those 2 happen — voila! — everyone utilizing this “convenience” has now potentially installed a backdoor into their system, or ransomware, or whatever.

Few here would need such a script because not many here would’ve purchased a 25+ model. I also feel that even with this script, most here wouldn’t opt for the 25 series when there are 21/22/23 and 24 series models available without any HDD lock-ins. besides, the 25+ range offer little by way of upgrades, instead removing options or being essentially the same bar the 2.5Gb E.
I believe no one should buy the 25+ series despite this script “fixing” the key issue. It sends the wrong message to Synology if sales of their new range go largely unaffected as a result of user script bypasses, bypasses that Synology could use to refuse all and any support on modified units regardless if the issue relates to HDD’s or not.
Why reward Synology by working around their issues and adding to sales of the 25+ range?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
You really do not want this on your NAS. I want a NAS to be 100% reliable. Synology was 100% reliable also with 3rd party disks, which makes their new policy marketing BS. A 25 model with this tinkering, is for sure not 100% reliable. It will become a cat and mouse game where synology finds a counter solution after wich the community finds a cure and so on and so on. Was about to update my synology model in 2025, now waiting one more year to see what will happen. Option A: synology will allow 3rd party drives again, and I might be sticking to Synology. Option B: see how Ugreens OS is developping and if that goes well, I am joining the Ugreen fan club.

Ideally, Synology would accept this or say they won’t support the unverified drives but allow you to use them anyway.

REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Too risky, Synology will, for sure, overwrite the config file at some point, then you’ll find your NAS won’t start, so no ssh to get back in to change the config back. The whole point is to have rock solid file storage. Do a test, change it, create a pool and volume. Then change the config file and reboot. It sounds like Dave has an answer for everything, which is good, but I’d do that test above, if Dave hasn’t already. I have TrueNas on a separate drive on a TerraMaster – all data is on other drives. I could rebuild the OS drive and re-import the pools and config. If you had a mirrored pair isn’t the Synology OS, and your data, on that same mirrored pair? Will that cause an issue with recovery?
