I have an old Drobo 5N w/ 5x 3.5" 4TB WD Red SATA drives in it.

I've had my eye on Synology for awhile and I would like to upgrade, but this one still works...

One afternoon I found myself drooling over the DS1522+ which has 5 drive bays and I can add 10GbE to it.  Then I was looking at a 10 gig switch and trying justify to myself why I "needed" these things.  In the end, what I have works, until it doesn't.

I don't seem to have the luck in finding discarded treasures like you have... ;)
