Are the drives included or do I need to buy them separately?
Reviewer consensus
Most NAS units in this roundup ship diskless - you buy the drives separately. Reviewers commonly pair them with WD Red Plus or Seagate IronWolf NAS-rated drives. Note that on newer Synology Plus-series models, community threads in r/synology flag that Synology has restricted some features to its own branded drives, which is a frequently cited point of frustration.
