Rated 5 out of 5

Great consumer-level NAS

LOTS of options! In fact, maybe too many options; it will take forever to learn how to use them all. I've been running NAS units as Media/File servers for year. The others had maximum disk size allowed as 4TB each and 16TB (raw) per unit. Those limits were fine 5+ years ago, but are terrible in this modern era where 14TB drives are available. Synology makes a great NAS that is easy to upgrade and provides scaleability without the need to start from scratch each time you upgrade it. They are a little pricey for the average consumer, but you get so much more for the extra cash outlay. Transfers to and from the unit are very speedy. The ONLY drawback are the drive trays. They are tool less, which is GREAT; but they are cheaply made out of plastic. So, the users needs to take his/her time and treat the trays with a little TLC. Other that that, I have no complaints with the unit.
