Think it’s time to leave Synology. First, the two-step login process I loathe (“Enter your username. Oh! Enter your password.”) Now it emails a verification code. For a disk array. In my closet.

Hmm, I don’t really need a NAS. Maybe OWC ThunderBay 4 or QNAP TR-004 attached to the Mac mini would be fine. Certainly faster.
@nuthatch My "NAS" is a 4-bay OWC Raid enclosure hanging off a Mac mini. My backup solution is a shell script on each machine that invokes rsync over ssh.
@_the_cloud I am learning in that direction. QNAP is cheaper but I’m a long-time fan of OWC.
