So that’s helping answer the hardware question of moving away from Synology, but what about the software? One of the best things I like about my Synology is the fact I can do things like having a Windows backup agent, backing things up to an S3 bucket and running some containers on it. I could probably do all that by hand, but it was just stupid easy with the interface and software.

A NAS without ECC RAM is useless to me.
