Yet again another reason why I won’t buy proprietary systems like this. Make your own, if you know what a NAS is I’m sure you van handle it.
I van handle everything… Honk Honk.
Meanwhile Synology keeps updating my ageing NAS.
They may not have the best bang for the buck for hardware but their software package is really well put together.
Sounds like D-Link is telling people to buy Synology.
Or just build your own? I have an eight-bay running OMV that I built using one of these cool little mini-ITX towers.
The “issue” I have with this case is the SFX format for the PSU, they are rare and more expensive.
Not sure what you mean…? I bought a random Corsair PSU from bestbuy and it’s working fine.
My synology box is 8 years old now and still getting patches. I would actually buy it again. Good work.
A NAS, a router or Storage server all of the are computer. Just use old computer as nas instead of throwing them away.
Lenovo did this when they bought Iomega NAS devices. The final firmware before they ended support added google ads to the web admin interface. So now I have it booting Debian and OpenMediaVault, bye bye Lenovo.
I’m a little bit torn on this one, we’re talking 10-15 year old devices here. The number of companies that will continue to produce emergency security patches for their hardware so old and having reached EOL four years ago in 2020 are few and far between. Caveat Emptor most definitely, but if you’re someone who likes to keep their tech running forever, you’re going to need to get creative, when the manufacturer eventually stops patching. For this particular instance, I’d recommend placing the unit behind a vpn on the lan.
Welp, looks like I’m changing brands next time I buy a router.
So now more buying D-link anymore
