So I recently purchased a Synology DS923+ and 2x 12 TB WD Red Plus drives, and Synolgoy can't recognize the drives. Their support page suggests that I plug the drives into a Windows machine and manually format the disks, however I don't have any remaining SATA slots in my main PC.

So now I am searching for the best hard drive dock/enclosure that won't hurt my drives. I've heard a lot about how cheap enclosures can really mess with your data, and I don't want to run into that ever. I'm looking for 2-4 slots, USB 3.1 would be fantastic, and I'd want one that can do 2.5 and 3.5 drives. What would be really badass would be to have one with an M.2 slot built-in as well, but that may not exist.
