Is it possible to mount a synology raid array in ubuntu? I plan on retiring my synology. It is quite old and as of today cant do 10gbit networking. Only 5gbit it seems. So I am considering buying a case that can house 10 drives and would like to keep the data on it if possible. If it is more hassle then it is worth I will just transfer the files from that to my truenas system and just create a second truenas server.

It’s possible to mount it in Linux since Synology Hybrid RAID uses MD RAID, BTRFS and LVM, although there are some quirks. I did it years ago when I was migrating away from Synology, but I only mounted the array in Linux so I could transfer it to a new set of disks.
You can refer to this guide by someone who did it recently.
