Synology, maker of network-attached storage (NAS) devices, will seemingly remove advanced features from its Plus devices that are not using hard drives provided by, or certified by, Synology itself, starting with its 2025 lineup.
A report on the German site HardwareLuxx (translated by Google) and a press release on Synology’s German-language website appear to confirm Synology’s strategy. The company, which sees “significant benefits” to its “proprietary hard drive solution” (also per Google’s translation), will be “expanding [its] integrated ecosystem to the Plus series.” For those Plus series models released in 2025, only Synology’s own hard drives, and third-party drives certified by Synology, will offer “the full range of functions and support.” Synology’s release states that it can provide the “highest levels of security and performance, while also offering significantly more efficient support.”
Ars has contacted Synology’s US offices for comment and will update this post with any response.

Thanks for the heads up that this company is run by privateer pirate thieves
