They’ve been implementing this for a while with some of their models. There’s an excellent script that is actively maintained to get around their shit policies.
I’m only using a Synology (ds1823xs+) because I got a killer deal. (Sometimes I still wish I went with unraid.) I’ve never encountered any issues using unapproved hard drives with this script.
I also bought a Plex pass years ago on sale and back then the app was fabulous, nowadays it is simply meh. I am still running it, but seriously considering switching to Jellyfin

My man, I wouldn’t bet on Unraid not going the same route like Plex.
Ha! I bought a plex lifetime pass years ago while on sale. Maybe one day I’ll switch to jellyfin- maybe sooner than I think.
On a positive note synologys brtfs is pretty cool. If anything, it’s one less thing I don’t need to worry about.
