Hoping someone has news on the rumored DS1823+.

I've been looking at the DS1821+ but would rather hold off if a refresh is right around the corner.

Lastly, I don't want to be locking into using Synology drives with the DS1823xs+.

That's a lot of power!

I was reading while you can get other drives working, you'll regularly have warnings about incompatible drives. I have a stack of WD easystore 14TB external hard drives waiting to be shucked. The drive inside the first shucked is a WD140EDGZ-11B1PA0. I think they will work with the DS1823xs+but I have enough projects going on and just want something that works.

What has your experience been like? I see you used the Synology_HDD_db script. How painless was it? Did you run into any issues? Is there ongoing maintenance using non synology drives?

I have not tried shucking drives but I imagine they should work. Currently have 20tb Seagate ironwolf ST20000NT001. The script takes two seconds to run and needs to be redone everytime you update the Synology software which doesn't seem to be overly frequent. Running the script or not you have the same full functionality. Script just removes the warnings.
