Tried and or Used all but Thecus
Tried the New ReadyNAS devices (terible UI)
Running Synology 1513 at the office
Running ReadyNAS Pro6 at home (OS4)
Have a QNAP TS-451 on my desk testing.
Buying a QNAP TS-653 with 8GB RAM to replace the ReadyNAS Pro6 as my primary home NAS (and will repurpose the old ReadyNAS as my backup)

I went QNAP.
I did both online demos and didn't feel like there wasn't much disparity between the two. If anything, I probably would have given Synology a slight edge.
However, for what I wanted (single-bay diskless), QNAP simply had the better hardware. In particular, the QNAP had an eSATA interface and multiple USB3 interfaces.
