According to our NAS expert
The Synology RS2418+ is a rack-mountable NAS for use in large companies. You can install up to 12 hard drives or SSDs in this server, enabling you to create a powerful storage center with a maximum capacity of 144TB. That's sufficient for all your business documents or backups. Thanks to the integrated Intel Quad-Core processor, this NAS is also powerful enough to run virtual machines, a web server, or a VPN server. The 4 network ports are equipped with LACP, which quadruples the network speed when using a suitable router. Synology's BRTFS file system keeps multiple versions of your files and fixes writing errors if you're using a RAID setup. That way, you'll be sure not to lose any data

Be sure to take into account that this model is not to put in the closet or on your desk, it makes just a little too much noise for that. However, this is also about a RackStation series from Synology, which can perfectly find its place at the SME. Thanks to the Synology OS, you can get started quickly, and of course you don't have to fill in all the disks immediately. Thanks to the business-oriented possibilities of this device, you can perfectly use it with several people to share documents, work in groups, provide backups of all machines on the network, and, for media enthusiasts, it is also perfectly suitable for serve as a PLEX server.
However, if you also start using Synology's Virtual Machine Manager, I can recommend adding a bit of memory!
