There is a YT channel called thestoreageguy who demo's on using a Github script to add unsupported HDD's to the supported list in your Synology NAS. There are also others BTW. I like how you do your reviews and would very much like to see you try this. Yes, I'm sure there are downsides, but I think it's worth a review.

Answer the question, “is this device worth purchasing after Synology has removed video transcoding for applications?”

Trying to trick the box into using non synology drives. Until then I’ll pass. I have 6 synology boxes between work and home, but will protest with my wallet as they go anti consumer

Performance tests against 918+. Lol. See what seven years has done at Synology.

The only things I care about are CloudSync with Google Shared Drives, and ActiveBackup for G Suite. If they still work, I am 100% on board with Synology, I don't care if their drives are made out of asbestos.

Head to head comparrison to its predecesor. Maybe there is something worth mentioning.

I have no plans to procure more Synology products due to the drive lock-in. We're migrating away as I type. Rather, some good tests of alternatives would be good.

Do a collab with Brandon Herrera. I suggest using his m42 on it.

I am interested in seeing the performance since they have taken away the 10 gb Port. While I am considering the ds1821+ or the Ds1825+, seeing this model against the 923+ would be interesting. Even with the upgrades you can do with both.

How to roll over the DS923+ with current compatible/non-compatible drives? Also rolling over with the Dx517 expansion unit compatible with current/non-compatible drives to compatible/comparable device.

Yes, I’m in agreement. Head to head with predecessors to see if it’s worth the upgrade.

Sorry Will but synology needs to remove the HDD restrictions. I suggest drop testing it

Test plex 4k streaming. Can it transcode without the hardware transcoding? Or will it choke. I think the 923 choked. If I remember right this 925 got a cpu bump.

Test how quickly it’ll sell on eBay since nobody wants synology after their hard drive drama
