I have owned many a Synology NAS, would highly recommend the plus models, they can just do so much. This two bay NAS with an intel CPU does it all, run apps, VMs, containers, backup target, so perfect for someone that need something for home. My use cases was I needed a temp backup location for for 14TB of data from my DS918+ after an issues that needs it to be rebuilt. I was able to get good through put copying NAS to NAS, around the 800 mbps. I have a couple of WD Red NAS drives in it, they spin down when the NAS is sitting idle. I like the model for someone that wants something more than a start NAS as it has duel Ethernet and option to upgrade the RAM.
