    It’s not how long you get support, it’s how long that version of the OS is going to be supported by the maintainers for stuff like security updates. The reason you would choose an LTS release is because you don’t want an apt update to switch to a kernel version (or any other package version) that borks a production server.








  • I have a 6 bay, so yeah that might be a little limiting. I have all my personal stuff backed up to an encrypted cloud mount, the bulk of my storage space is pirated media I could download again, and I have the Synology using SHR so I just plug in a bigger drive, expand the array, then plug in another bigger drive and repeat. Because of duplication sectors you might not benefit as much from that method with just 4 bays. Or if you have enough stuff you can’t feasible push to up to the cloud to give piece of mind during rebuilding I guess.
