I believe they were basically saying a set list of approved hard drives

No, it was their drives or nothing. The only approved ones were theirs. I am also a long term Synology user is is shopping around for a different brand for my replacement.

So you're saying the photo of a Synology branded (rebranded) 4TB HDD from the article is fake?

No I wasn't saying it was fake. I believe that was one of the approved but rebranded drives

You can find the compatible drives here https://www.synology.com/en-uk/compatibility
