I've had a DS916+ now for three years. Two weeks ago it decided to bomb out on me - 4 disks disconnected from the bus at the same time (according to the OS logs), BTRFS crapped out, all data lost. Recovery has been .. near non-existent. Thank me for making backups!
So, while the nas is still in warranty (and being shipped out as it's diagnosed with having a hardware failure), I am not entirely sure I want to go through this again.
Hence, looking to maybe move to freenas. I've used ZFS in...
Freenas build to move from Synology DS916+
