Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)After owning NETGEAR, WD and QNAP; Synology is the only brand I operate.
Pros
- very well built
- *packed* with features
- gorgeous, PC and web-based management software (there's a great demo on their website)
Cons
- although on par with other NASes, it's pretty expensive
Synology builds a solid piece of hardware with useful things like 4 USB, 2 eSATA, and 2 Gigabit Ethernet ports. And since it's a "Disk Station" the dives are hot-swappable. Although, that's standard stuff for this kind of device. What makes their products truly great is their fantastic software. The feature set is too long to list here, but it's basically a file/backup/web/email server, media streamer, and download manager jammed into a cubic foot box. Which, thanks to their software developers, can be almost completely configured in about 10 minutes.
The software is the same on all their models, so if you only need 1 or 2 drives, save a little money and get a smaller one. But really, who doesn't want to RAID 15 hard-drives together?
I've been running 2 DS509+ (with DX5 expansions), a DS710+, and now 2 DS1511+ since they were released. All the units have never given me a bit of grief since I first set them up. They are by far the best NAS devices out there.
I highly recommend any Synology model, but this one is awesome!
