'This is a load of rubbish, doesn't work, I sent it back'

This usually (not always) means that there is an inherent 'operator fault'

Synology has many models targeted at different categories of users. And, as in the case of Apple, it is always preferable to purchase a top model in the selected category. Linux servers of this company are focused on working mainly with Apple products, although they work fine in Microsoft Active Directory.
I have long been using these servers for myself, private customers and in my corporate network. And I can say that they are among the best on the market.
And according to the link given by you, the low ratings are only for 10% - they simply do not know how to cook or out of luck.

Consider that the server is sold without disks. And you need to buy disks specialized, fast and for a RAID organization (with a spare one in case of failure).
Synology has a list of recommended disk models and recommended UPS models.

When initializing, choose regular RAID-10 - this will ensure fast writing compared to other types of RAID and sufficient protection.
I now have (black Hitachi (HGST 7200) 4TB )*4 and (WD40EFRX 4TB)*4, which gives 8TB of working capacity per server with four compartments.

I connect the home server with two Ethernet wires in Link Aggregation mode to an HP 8 port hub.

This is awesome - you are really offering valuable info here.

One last question... about this:
Why 2 wires instead of one. I have never heard of this strategy before.

I recommend to get acquainted with this technology, because it provides the fastest and most reliable data exchange from low-cost solutions.
