It is a Synology DS1821+. It has 8 bays and can be equipped with 8 gb. I am new to NAS. If I equip all 8 bays with 8 gb, I have 64 gb, half of which is 8 gb RAM and the other half is storage, i.e. 32 gb? I have no idea about the SSD. It doesn't really need it and can be retrofitted later? Thank you

Hello,
You've got something mixed up.
The front 8 slots are for hard drives. You can fit pretty much anything in there. I have 16 TB discs in there. The RAM is 4 GB. Officially, you can install a maximum of 2x16 GB, but 2x32 GB is also possible. The memory slots are on the underside. The SSDs are officially only intended as a cache, but with a trick you can also address the SSDs as a memory pool. The SSD bays are located to the left of hard drive bay 1 on the inside wall.

It's best to get proper advice from Digitec in the shop or register in a forum where you can read everything in detail. Or watch a few YouTube tutorials.
