Synology Lost the Plot with Hard Drive Locking Move

Consumer NAS devices is a lost plot point either way.
Buy a 2nd hand thinkpad or a gaming PC for basically the same price as synology tray and you'll have not only a NAS but a full home server that'll last you a decade and play video games as an extra.

That's fine for us techy people, but my parents would not be able to do that.
-
Not sure if proprietary NAS tools are any easier tbh
I think the IT consumer culture is just lazy. If you don't know how to fix your sink you'd call in a plumber but if your home server breaks ppl just sit and whine how tech is too hard rather than you know paying someone to do the job for them.
-
They are significantly easier to use.
-
if you don't know how to fix a sink: learn how and put a bucket under it in the meantime.
paying people to fix your problems develops helplessness and an over-reliance on societal function.
-
So we should just throw away the entire concept of specialization and do every single thing ourselves? Pretty dumb take my dude.
