Enough compute power to run some local services Great form factor Low noise and power consumption Very flexible for home lab usage
Synology NAS arrived early and was easy to set up. Operating without faults!!
Excellent solid hardware (2.5GB LAN, M.2 Storage for cashing, I/O Ports) at a great price. Installation of hardware (drives, etc.) done well. UGREEN NAS app make it simple and quick to get the unit up and running.
Decent price for the hardware, sleek design, upgradable RAM, software updates are frequent, drive bays are solid, can control fan speed for the CPU
Good Interface, stable product, great price, good online Video training, easy to setup for basic functions, easy to link to vie home network, TV connections. Quite and good power management.
This is the 3rd Synology NAS that I have owned. This one has the AMD chip in it so it is also the fastest. The hardware itself is excellent, but what makes these products really shine is the apps produced by Synology. If you are going to use this for running virtual machines, I would recommend bumping the memory to at least 20 Gbytes.
Easy to set-up Easy to be used by any devices Easily support 6 users ( 4 iphones + 2 android + 5 window laptop + 2 macosx + 2 fire tv) backup and streaming)
Easy to setup / install Massive expansion capabilities Integrates seamlessly with existing storage pools / volumes Screwdriver / tool free drive bracket assembly (3.5")
So easy to setup physically and soft. Enought apps for my needs (Streaming movies) With a WD red in it, was able to stream over Wi-Fi and copyng large files at the same time on it. Silent Robust construction No compatibility limitations compare to... tried to give Ugreen a try and I was really impressed.
Easy to setup and configure
- Super easy to upgrade from a smaller Diskstation - Easy to add more capacity
i was looking for a new Plex server for full 4k HD remux HEVC mkv files. This is it!!! Play files without issue using LG tv plex app. If youre looking for a new Plex server you wont regret this purchase.
- Well made - Nice little heatsink on the chip. - Fast ... really fast !
It just works. And in the computer world thats a big win. Runs as fast as a local hard drive.
The synology software really shines. I'm happy I went with a 4-bay unit over a 2-bay unit for the capacity and RAID.
