Now I only have to figure out the best backup strategy and upload all photos for sharing with the lady.
I don’t use synology devices but I’d recommend a little breathing room.
Seriously: front and back are open and inside there is room between the hard disk and the case. The disks are around 25 degrees C.
Is the logo on the side perforated for airflow in this model?
No. It is a 720+ with solid sides.
Welcome! Synology is a very good company for NAS devices.
I’ve had my 920+ for a few years and love it, save for the BTRFS constant disk activity bug in DSM7 that they haven’t fixed since day 1. Just don’t have it in a quiet room of that kind of thing annoys you.
I don’t make use of any “sign into Synology” products or services. There are better ways to do all of it that don’t involve their cloud if you have the time, skill and inclination.
Synology Photos is an excellent photo management product (think Google Photos). As is their Drive product, that works on all devices and OSs (think Dropbox). Either will automatically back up photos and screenshots you take on a mobile device.
Backing up to it or backing it up? Very different animals.
