I Tried EVERYTHING! All upgrades, hacks and tweaks you can do with Synology DS925+

Описание: The Synology DS925+ is powerful — but also full of limitations. In this video, I push this NAS to its limits, testing unsupported hard drives, SSDs, and NVMe caching, attempting 10GbE upgrades via M.2, USB LAN adapters, third-party RAM, and even external DAS boxes. From SSH hacks to hardware mods, here’s what works (and what absolutely doesn’t).
