I enjoy when the news headlines remind us they CAN be good

In my scenario- ~25 clients with onsite (and replicated) backups, a new Truenas machine every time isn’t a feasable thing, so fingers crossed they don’t start increasing the markup on their “branded” drives. Ugh.

They’re all updated to the latest DSM, maybe any change is just on new models shipping.

We use a LOT of their small 2 bay units at customer sites, and the latest we’ve installed were using Synology brand drives, so not sure about those

I’ve only seen the “non supported drive installed” notification once and in my experience it affected absolutely nothing about the device.
