I presently have a QNAP 559 Pro II NAS. I need to upgrade to a larger capacity NAS. Specifically an 8 bay model. I have a question for the users.
In comparing Qnap and Synology it appears that the newer Synology NAS's have a hybrid raid mode.
Does QNAP have a similar mechanism to increase RAID volume size but not requiring the same size hard drives?
Is the Synology Hybrid Raid expandable in RAID 10 format?
The NAS is used to backup 5 machines and also for storage. Is will be backed up to either the QNAP 559 ProII or stand alone USB 3 Hard drives.. for now.
In the future it MAY even be used to backup another NAS located at the office via the internet.
