RS1219+ VS DS1819+

[Ev The Nerd]

I am now looking at Buying a new Synology NAS I could go with an RS1219+ or a DS1819+ What would you go with and why? i will be maxing out the ram and buying 10GB FSP Cards for networking. I would prefer not to use QNAP since they do not support different sized drives. I Currently own an DS1819+ that I would transition to use for back up of the new NAS. I am Leaning toward an additional DS1819+ with The support for 32GB Ram and Higher Read/Write, and ability to add 2 expansion units if needed down the road. only sacrificing .3ghz and Rackmount.

I'd watch this before going w/ the Synology. They seem to have an issue with power from the 15-18 series.

We need the 8 Bays on the DS1819+ and the Expansion card slot for 10 gig network.

Have a look at QNAP as well, I find you get slightly better hardware spec at same price points. Both brands are great though.

Stay away from Synology, they have a habit of bricking themselves.
