Like others here, I have a Synology box. Little guy -- 2 drives
-- bought probably in 2012. Its power brick died and I slapped another
one with more amps. I have upgraded its drives at least 2x. It allows
me to run NFS, SMB (theoretically; never did), iSCSI, and even act as
Time Machine server for my Macs. I can also create and resize logical
volumes just fine. And most of this is done from command line.
Different from others, I use it only for export fileshares and LUNs.
IMHO, a fileserver/NAS/SAN should just do that. I have another box
which has no issues mounting shares from it to run docker containers
on. Or mounting LUNs to run VMs.
If I were to replace it with something more powerful, I would start
with FreeNAS and add the drives and network cards.
