I recently bought a QNAP TL-D800C more or less by accident. I had thought what I was buying was a NAS but which ended up being a DAS. It has USB 3.2 Gen 2 connectivity, which is neat, but kind of defeats the purpose I was hoping to use it for.

My question: if I were to buy a 2 bay synology NAS would I be able to utilize the 8bay DAS with the 3.2 Gen 2 usb connection? I would basically have 10x drives at that point and be utilizing the NAS with attached storage.

This is my first time building / buying a NAS and I'm definitely stumbling through it. Any suggestions would be helpful, thanks.
