I'm using a DIY Synology fork(?) called Xpenology. There's a small risk things stop booting between minor versions, but otherwise it works as well as a real box.

> I'm not sure I trust the synologys if I can't pull the drives and read them elsewhere when things go wrong.

Synology drives are easily mountable using mdadm + lvm.

Thanks for that. Is there there any sort of wizzy photo management in Xpenology?

Some Synology users seem to like their Moments app a lot: https://www.synology.com/en-us/dsm/feature/moments
