      I myself use a Synology 212j at home. In principle it is on the
same lines of the Lenovo ix2-dl, probably not as nice for it is very
old an donly has one ethernet port. But, it can handle unmatched
drives as this is how you upgrade the raid size (put one larger drive,
let it rebuild, then add second larger drive).
