Synology is more closed down but they make it very easy to use. Note that nas prices don't include the hard drives - that could be $250 alone. Recommend finding one from past generation.
Even though I consider myself technically savvy and I could have saved money with a DIY solution, I went with synology and I couldn't be happier. It took me just one day to get it up and running with everything I needed. Including shucking the drives.
I'm kind of a noob and starting out with Synology helped me learn a lot about networking, protocols, ddns, docker, etc. Wonderful learning experience and it will help me become more confident in building my own nas in the future.
Same, it’s great!
With Synology and QNAP for example, what we get in exchange for our money is support and stability. Also, both make durable hardware, my old QNAP still running after 10 years. And still supported!
