Synology DiskStation DS420+

source Manager (detailed system usage statistics),  Log Center (admin logs), Universal Search (search all drives, folders, and files), and Security Advisor (scan for malware, password strength, and updates)..As with all the Synology NAS drives we've reviewed over the last several years, the DS920+ is easy to install

Despite the fact that Synology has a good reputation, a reason that contributed to my choice, I am disappointed with this product. I bought the first unit and returned it after a week because it was making too much noise, twice the spec. There was a strange noise as if the fan blades had hit somethi...

This is a nice piece of kit with lots of apps that you can download onto the unit such as a media server, back-up server etc. The device has two NMVe slots to add cache and a DDR SODIMM slot for memory upgrade. HOWEVER, they recommend that you only use their memory, which is about 8 (!!!!) time the ...

A very competent NAS and Synology’s software is excellent but for only £50 more (if you shop around) you can get the DS920+ which has a quad core processor and twice as much ram and a SATA expansion port. I already have a DS920+, but for me this purchase made sense as it was on a Black Friday offer ...

I have 4 disc's 8 tb each the raid is synology raid the disc's are seagate ironwolf i have 4.6tb worth of files in the nas one of the seagates went down so i put another one in it took a massive 57 hours and 12 minutes to level up apart from that it's ok

DS420+ NAS arrives well packed, with a ca5e cable, power block and mains lead. The frame is very open so while nice and cool is not the quietest of NAS' but I have mine in another room so it's never an issue. I would say it is about as noisy as your average laptop can be when the fan starts running ...

Had a couple of QNAP's in the past and they were fine but the interface wasn't great and the fans would fail and need replacing, disks always seemed to get hot too. Got my first Synology NAS a few years ago and it's been flawless, the only reason I purchased this was because I needed 4 bays instead ...

I purchased the DS420 to replace a DS415 that failed. Migration from the old DS to the new was extremely easy. After transferring the drives and booting the new DS, the DSM OS asked if I wanted to use my previous settings. Within minutes of clicking yes, the new DS420 was running and backing up our ...

this is an amazing piece of kit.. i just love it.. its hyper fast easy to use. And i can access all my kit from home.
