Synology and QNAP are similar, but QNAP is a higher quality/functionality and (slightly) higher priced system often found in SMBs.
QNAP has a very active user community that has been helpful for me in the past when I had a crappy Seagate drive fail and then another failed during the RAID 5 rebuild...

I've seen no other tech site test as scientifically as Anandtech.
They make other sites look like the National Enquirer.
Hmmm. I wonder who their sponsors are... I'll stick with Ars.
