DiskStation DS223J Network Attached Storage Drive (White)

I've had no problems with the NAS. I've spent quite some time exploring it's functions as the os has so many! Synology also has great apps so you can acces it from your phone, sync to devices and other cloud storage or watch your movies on the streaming app. Will definitely be looking at Synology again when I need an upgrade.

My first NAS so still learning but it looks like it will suit my home use purpose.

Compared to my old NAS this is packed with ton of features.

Devise is a little cheap - plastic everywhere. But works great

Unfortunately for iPhone, it is not usable. Their Synology Drive app creates a folder in your Files app so you can copy anything you may need from your phone to your NAS, but unfortunately, this function doesn’t work, as once you copy the folder with multiple files, it will copy the file structure and names, but not the files themselves. Some files are getting copied, but others are not. 9 out of 13 folders are getting copied, for example. Files Inside folders, 3 out of 9 videos may be copied, but that’s completely unreliable. It doesn’t work like a plug and play usb-c hdd. The only thing you can do is manually copy individual files in their own app, not through iPhones files. The app doesn’t allow copying folders or multiple files. I have tried zipping the folder, but it doesn’t upload either, not through files not through the app. Only uploading individual files one by one works, but imagine having 300gb of data you want to transfer to this thing, it’s an absolutely impossible task which defeats the whole purpose.

good for normal and basic backup, little bit slow copying 1gb file takes 2-3 minutes

Gutes NAS . Leicht einzurichten. Bisher ohne Probleme .Kein Zwang zu Cloud .

I am a newbie when it comes to network attached storage systems as my old Iomega NAS was as basic as they can get back in the day. I decided to bite the bullet with this Synology NAS as an upgrade and was happily surprised of its capabilities. It’s certainly more advanced than my old NAS and exceeded all expectations for what I need it to do. I am still figuring out most of its features, but the setup is quite easy. I would say that if you wanted to install twin drives, please plan ahead and ensure you use two internal HDD of same sizes and formats to avoid conflicts. Also be prepared to embrace new technology and maintenance involved. Scrubbing HDD is new to me! The apps was also a game changer which allowed mobile/remote control. Great kit.

This is the least painful setup / configuration experience I have had with any product (including Apple devices) in my entire life. After tossing two SSDs into the internal drive bays, closing it up, plugging it in and pressing the power switch, the DS233J detected both drives, and proceeded to initialise and configure itself pretty much on auto-pilot (while still providing lots of options to fiddle with, if desired, along the way). The web-based setup assistant is idiot-proof (witness myself; exhibit A!), and the only extra step involved in my particular case, was quickly installing the Media Server app from within the web-based management environment (said installation took around 5 seconds, total), at which point, my smart TV immediately recognised the DS233J as a valid input source, and away it went, streaming movies, photos, etc. Network access to the RAID array in the NAS was seamless, from all devices in the house (Chromebook, Mac, Windows PC), and everything functioned as expected, without any further config. hurdles. This thing is small, lightweight, very very quiet (it does have a fan, but it's barely audible even up close), and the setup process and management software are absolutely superb. Even if you barely understand anything about NAS's, filesystems, RAID setups, or DLNA servers, you can have this device up and running within just a few minutes. Basically, it does exactly what it's supposed to, and does it in a way that should make Apple jealous.

The Synology DS223J NAS impresses with its swift performance and user-friendly interface. Its dual-core processor and intuitive DiskStation Manager software ensure smooth operation for tasks like multimedia streaming and remote access. The sleek design, multiple connectivity options, and built-in applications add to its appeal. While expandability options could be more robust, the DS223J remains a top choice for home and small office environments, offering excellent value and reliability.

他社製品と迷いましたが、他の方のレビューなど参考にして購入。満足しています。OS, ソフトウェアがこなれていて使いやすいです。（一部わかりずらい所もありますが、Web情報で補完。）個人利用では満足感高いのではないでしょうか。自分の反省ですが、購入前に何を実現したいか目的を再確認し、ベイの数、HDDかSSDか、RAIDとバックアップの構成は何が適切か、をもっと考えておけば良かった。（無理にSSDにしなくともHDDで速度、信頼性も十分だった。）
