I have been using this device with 4 1tb 12mm lap top drives(WD’s) in hybrid RAID config. for 6mths. Absolutely no issues. DSM software is intuitive. Powerful little box. Amazing how much you can do with this thing that is nearly silent and takes up less room than my stapler on my desk. My only complaint would be the price of the Drives is over a 100 bucks a piece for 1TB’s. Even so, you gain so much space that I feel it was worth it as I don’t need more functionality than this NAS offers for my home office.
Great product; would deff buy again and am thoroughly impressed with Synology America Corp DiskStation 4-Bay.

I have done a lot of research on home NAS servers before I bought the DS411 Slim. It does exactly what it states on the Synology website. It has a very good intuitive interface and simple navagation. I bought it with 4 1TB WD Scorpio Blue hard drives and it works like a charm. It also is virtually silent which is also great if you leave it on all the time. I highly recommend this product especially if you need to back up all of your precious memories on your other computers like photos which are irreplaceable.

Tried to install 4x Segate Constellation 2 500GB drives in this guy. Seemed like the dream combination. Slots 1-3 fit the large height drives (15mm) just fine. However the 4th slot is obstructed by some large capacitors and will not accept a Constellation 2 drive. This is a very poor design in my opinion. I am now forced to use consumer drives (9.5mm) or send it back. What were these guys thinking????
