What is the difference between "Harbundle" and "Softbundle"?

Hard bundle means that the hard drives are already inserted in the NAS. Soft bundle means that the hard drives are delivered separately to the NAS. I recommend a DS418, it is easier to expand and offers much better protection against hardware failures, since a RAID5 can be configured with 3 hard drives.

Equipped with cheaper 3TB drives, a RAID5 would even provide 6TB instead of 4TB and there would still be a hard drive slot for further expansion.
