Performace Tests Remarks
Setup 2 Synology DSM performance is very impressive. The test results put my build in the same league as Synology DiskStation DS412+ or DS1513+. Refer to links below to compare my tests results (Crystal Disk Mark scores) against other reviews.

High System Temperature
If you noticed through the printscreens above, my system temperature is on the high side. Possible root causes might be the enclosure which is small and compact in size, an inefficient weak fan or Synology DSM is reporting the temperature inaccurately. Though my observation, Synology DSM reports the system temperature at 42°C after a cold boot. It then rapidly raises to 48°C after a brief 5 mins of idle. Seems weird though. Despite the unhealthy temperature, there has been no issues or any abnormalities over few days of continuous usage and testing. I will include this as a fine-tune / follow up task in the maintenance phase.
