Was offered ds3612xs should i buy it?
I do plan on updating Synology_Plex_Backup soon to bring it up to date with my other Plex backup script, Asustor_Plex_Backup, that has a separate config file and a restore script to make it easier to restore from a backup.

Plex not working after Synology update
My Synology_Plex_Backup script takes an hour to backup the Plex, or PlexMediaServer, folder and it is just archiving the files on the same NAS. Then restoring it takes an hour too.
- Plex (with pass) on DS220+ latest update seems to kill HW transcoding
- Unable to use migration because the max storage isnt the same on each one

Synology 1823xs NVMe Question
I used my https://github.com/007revad/Synology_HDD_db script to add them to DSM's compatible drive database and allow creating NVMe storage pool.

Help enabling SHR on enterprise model
You should probably schedule those commands to run at start-up in case a DSM update undoes your changes. See how_to_schedule (replace that command with the two command lines above).

I just lost my M.2 NVME ssd volume after an automatic update!
Update: I managed to fix it by running this script. One tip is to save your script in a place that doesn't have spaces in the location path. Part of me wonders if I should have just stayed on DSM 6 since if it isn't broke don't fix it.
- Has anyone here ditched Synology NASs because of the unverified drive annoyance?

unverified disks on passive server in HA setup
Or better yet, just schedule my Synology_HDD_db script to run at boot-up. https://github.com/007revad/Synology_HDD_db
