Can these hard drives also be used for NAS, such as the Synology DS415+? It would be practical if that were possible. 2.5" fit in without any problems. The only question is whether they will work in the NAS. They are formatted as SHR

Hello,
Thank you for your enquiry.
For use in a NAS, we recommend an 870 EVO for moderate write access or an 860 PRO for frequent write access due to the TBW values.
Kind regards from Schwalbach,
Your Samsung Service Team

Magnetic storage is said to be better protected from external influences such as radiation.
