    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.

      Well whaddaya know, you get what you pay for.

      That being said, companies should be legally obligated to provide security patches for a minimum number of years.

      My synology box is 8 years old now and still getting patches. I would actually buy it again. Good work.

        I could be a lot happier with Synology. Honestly. When it’s time to replace mine I’m just going to build one.

      I have to say I’ve also been enjoying my synology - going on almost 7 years since this thing was released and I get security updates regularly still. Will buy again once this thing dies.

      I bought my DS212 in 2012. Still going strong after two drive swaps. And now I feel old.
