The device works very briskly, data transfers are reliable. A functional torrent client - it takes nothing from memory - is very hilarious. The Synology Connect remote client works reliably. We use Seagate drives and they work reliably. SHR Raid by Synology allows you to use drives of different capacities while maintaining redundancy (protection).
Excellent device for 5 discs
Software
Emby works here - but you still need a license for Emby servers, which costs another 2700 CZK
8 GB RAM
Easy installation even for the layman
prices for Synology NAS devices, drives and RAM
Cannot insert SSDs from other manufacturers for caching and normal use (can be solved by hacking - you can find instructions on Redit)
USB-C for additional docking stations only
10 GB network card is not included - must be purchased (means additional investment) and you will need an SFP module for your switch or router
Only 5E category network cables are included, which will be enough for max 1 GB transfers, so you will need to buy another cable for a 2.5 GB network card.

Synology certainly did not do well to disable the addition of third-party drives. One big minus for me! After 12 years of using Synology systems exclusively, I am disappointed.
integrated network card with 2.5Gb
Beware that Synology does not allow third-party drives on new models. It can only be occupied by Synology drives. Expect to have to buy expensive Synology drives with the device. Just an NVMe drive with 800GB costs a whopping 8,000 CZK, 8x more than Samsung. I paid another 55,000 crowns for the new drives, which is 3 times more than the cost of the equipment.
The rear USB-C ports are only for connecting Synology expansion drives. They cannot be connected to an external drive with a USB-C cable, for example
