So i want to do a large uograde to my “homelab” but since i dont want to spent 1200€ on an empty synology nas and another 1200€ on hdd, i saw this on amazon (sorry site is dutch) I have a synology ds416play with 40tb and want to use this new one with 80tb hdds and a lenovo m600 i5 attached with some nas software. Probably running on mint linux (no linux expert, heared this was the most newby friendly). Would this be good enough? Or should i just buy a synology rs1221rp+ My network just got expanded also to 2.5g internet and 10gbit network. There is so much out there that cant choose.

EDIT: tnx. Didnt need a lot of convincing but the usb is the killer. So gonna look further.

EDIT 2: thanks for all the advise and tips!! :)
