Phenomenal Device, Plex server a little tricky, Lots of applications

The set up was remarkably easy. However, it did take a while to get the Plex media server properly configured. There is such a deep library of software packages for the device that it'll tale a while to take full advantage of the features. But now that it's up and running, it is a beautiful thing.

Excellent disk station ? NAS device

The DS 220+ is a robust enclosure that requires very little effort in the hardware setup. The software setup is intuitive and easy but, like anything else of this caliber, can be intense and somewhat time consuming. Again, the software setup is not unreasonable for a device of this caliber. The disk station runs quietly and seems quite efficient in its operations. The additional memory stick was very easy to install and goes in straight through the drive bay area.

Nice little NAS

Working great so far for storage and Plex. I don't think it would be a good option for transcoding 4k reliably but that was pretty much expected. Looks great in black compared to my old white diskstation. Very satisfied with this purchase and with Adorama.

A good buy

I am pleased with the purchase. This is my first NAS. The hardware setup is light lego, tool-less, take 2 minutes. On the software side, it is definitely geared towards the techie user. Anything is possible but the main function, ie back up from cloud are fairly easy. The iPhone apps are well designed. The unit itself is extremely fast, can handle many requests are the same time with no noticeable lag.

perfect for home use

Since I have no need to host data more than 6T or transfer data more than 100MB/second, it does everything I need.

Great little NAS!

SO MUCH faster than my old Synology NAS. Migration of data couldn't have been much easier, just inserted the drives and followed the migration prompts. Excellent.

Very happy with this NAS!

Ideal compromise between cost and performance. Solid fast NAS with lots of functionality and easy user interface. In particular, I like the VideoStation server software which is great for sharing home videos with users inside and outside the home. You can also install Plex but why? It costs to stream to mobile devices.

Good buy

Easy to use, expandable, and compact. Not a fan of Synology apps and software, but still get the job done. Used primarily as a central media server for me.

As Good As Ever

I have used Synology NAS units before and they have always been "as described" and dependable. This 2 bay enclosure is the same. I will continue to use Synology products.

Awesome NAS

I upgraded from a WD Mycloud ex2 ultra and my goodness what an upgrade it was, huge leap of an upgrade. I was considering the comparable QNAP but I really liked the interface and setup with this one. I am really glad I chose this NAS as it’s got a lot of customization and abilities. Also user friendly. It was recommended to my from my brother in law, he’s had his functioning well for roughly 10 years.

Very Nice Home NAS

This is a very nice NAS but the real plus is al the applications available through the Synology OS. For a small or starter NAS this one is very hard to beat.
