I was reading while you can get other drives working, you’ll regularly have warnings about incompatible drives.
I have a stack of WD easystore 14TB external hard drives waiting to be shucked. The drive inside the first shucked is a WD140EDGZ-11B1PA0. I think they will work with the DS1823xs+but I have enough projects going on and just want something that works.
What has your experience been like? I see you used the Synology_HDD_db script. How painless was it? Did you run into any issues? Is there ongoing maintenance using non synology drives?
Hoping someone has news on the rumored DS1823+.
I've been looking at the DS1821+ but would rather hold off if a refresh is right around the corner.
Lastly, I don't want to be locking into using Synology drives with the DS1823xs+.
That’s a lot of power!
