When you say "success," do you mean your Synology has successfully recovered from RAID drive failures? My 5-drive Synology DS508 had a single drive failure last week, its first in 4 years, and it took everything down with it. The RAID5 volume stayed in a crashed state, even after replacing the bad drive and SMART-testing all drives. Synology support was no help, except to tell me to use the "reset to factory defaults" feature. I did so, and it turned the DS508 into an expensive brick, unable to be accessed at all.
