Their most recent stuff has 3-4 year old processors. Even their top tier FS3017, coming in at $10k for a diskless server, has 2x E5-2620 v3 that were launched in Q3'14. That's pretty bad...
Compare that to a R740xd on xbyte with the latest processors, 64 GB RAM, and a RAID card with 8GB NV cache for ~$3500, the Synology starts looking really bad.
None of which is really apples to apples in this case, because it's a $600 box we're talking about above... but at the higher end, Synology definitely starts getting left behind.
If you are buying an "appliance" and expecting it to have the cost and performance of a straight server, you are not going to be happy. These are products specifically made for people who can't or won't set up their own basic file server. So comparing is never applicable. No NAS is a good value compared to a server.

But people are crazy and cheap (cheap to the point where they end up way over spending).
Where "cheap" = "throw money around like crazy".
People buying big NAS are anything but cheap. Cheap and reckless are very different things.

They also have some type of container enabled, so I'd bet on a type-3 and a type-2.
Type-2 what?

He is talking about the type of hypervisor that Synology is running.

using a Type-2 would just seem crazy.. but of course anything's possible.

But he mentioned Type-3, and there is no such thing in hypervisor parlance. Type-0 is unofficial and not real, just a misunderstanding of Type-1 but used to refer to KVM and ESXi, Type-1 is KVM, Hyper-V, ESXi, and Xen; then there is Type-2 which is VMware Workstation and VirtualBox; and Type-C for Containers.

I think he was calling a container a Type-3, I've heard others refer to the same before.

Same. Not correctly but I've heard it for sure.

Really? Search on that, it doesn't exist. And it's not the same kind of thing, calling it a Type-3 is wrong, and not wrong in a clear way like it would make sense, but it isn't the name. But containers are a totally different animal and cannot be numbered in the series without creating serious confusion.

The confused side, apparently.

If we were going to give containers a number, it would be more like a Type -1 than a 3. Containers are lighter than Type 1, not heavier than Type 2. Still totally different. But Type 0, 1, 2 go from lighter to heavier.
