The thing Synology does which no competitor is yet doing is rock-solid stability.
I have a 10 year old Synology running as well as it did the day I bought it, and I’ve never needed to troubleshoot a single issue on it.
Until a competitor can match that I will still be buying Synology, with the increased drive price the cost I pay for that stability.
I think people underestimate the value of that.
Ahh yes, “scrambling” to meet this urgent deadline.
