Is the Synology DS218+ worth buying?

This is exactly the kind of review I needed to see. Thank you!

One time purchase, with the app access correct? Worried about a subscription and getting locked out.

Can someone detail more about PLEX and some subscription fee that I do not understand. More exact, can I stream photos and movies from my Mac or iPhone to my Sony bravia Android TV via WIFI? Thank you !

These NAS boxes (218+) are couple of years old now, is there anything new on the horizon?

Let's say I stored all my videos on this device and I'm somewhere else (away from home). Can I get them using another WiFi connection and edit my videos as well?

I am close to choosing this product as my next NAS, but I am really worried about potential disk bay vibration inside the NAS. What front cover actually do? Do four rubbers on the front cover/plate do something to suppress vibration when put in place? do I have to be worried about it? I see a lot of posts on the net where people need to put velcro beneath the disk bays to fight vibration... It's not a small amount of money, I want to be sure. Please help.

Thanks for this excellent video. I’m looking to solve the same multi external drive problem and manual backups. One question? I have both macs and windows machines in my home. Can it be configured to run time machine backups and accessible by windows machines? Mac forces a specific format for time machine that I’m not sure my windows machines will recognize. Many thanks!

How do you connect this bad to your Mac? Wireless, plug in Ethernet directly or Ethernet via router?
