I didn't even bother getting the best price. I just selected things that would work well.

Get an LSI HBA in IT Mode for another $60 to add another 8 drives.

The case was chosen because it can support 11 drives. It comes with six bays by default but you can buy packs of two bays for $15.

As is, this will cost ~$560 plus the drives and allow you to use eleven 3.5", but cheaper and better options for the PSU, mobo, SSD and memory are out there. I just selected things that would be useful for what you need and provide better hardware than a Synology.

If you don't need as much storage, you can shave off $160 with a cheaper case and skip the HBA.
