Hi Poindextor,
I am not sure what filesystem Synology uses, but if its something like zfs then it would be easy to import into a NAS you can build.

My NAS/Homelab is built from just my older computer parts, and I was able to pick up a 9 bay drive computer case for $12 at my local Freegeek.

If you are unable to fix your issue, you may want to look at just building your own with old computer parts. My NAS is just running with 8GB of RAM on Proxmox, and I have been using it for almost ten years I believe.

If you do have a FreeGeek in your area it may be worth looking at that route.
