DS224+

Oh yeah, I have the ds224+ which I love but I'm definitely not replacing it with a new synology after this. They took away video station and now force you to buy synology drives? Come on... They only care about big commercial guys now.

These will replace the dozens of DS224+ models we have when they die, or Synology loses its mind and forces their drives to be used.

yeah DS224+ is definitely gonna be the last Synology product i'll ever have at this point.

4gb is not enough ram. I mean sure you can make do but compared to the same nas with max ram, you’ll notice the difference. And hardware can very much make a difference. My Synology is a ds224+. It uses an OLD celeron chip. It’s doesn’t even have avx support, so after using it for a few years to hos

I have a DS224+. If all these happened before I bought it, I wouldn't have bought it. I stopped using Synology apps after all the recent news, because there is no point, I do know that my next NAS won't be a Synology. So I would like to ask if it is possible to install another OS on my D224+ and for

Well this will blow your mind but I had Synology devices for around 12 years up until I (finally) got a DS224+ about 18 months ago. Around Feburary this year I actually made the jump to Ugreen and bought a DXP2800 twin bay. Everything was set up and running fine until around June when I realised I w

I can give you slight context. So I have mine running the server on my Synology DS224+, which has Intel N4120 which is slightly worse off than i3-9100 you have there. Intel quick sync is pretty good at transcoding with 3-5 clients requiring simultaneous transcodes at 1080p. The experience is that, i

Since this is your first NAS - you really can’t beat Synology for the user interface and final product polish. It’s so easy to set up a caveman could do it (me). I am in a similar boat to you (NAS newbie) and have the DS224+ and it’s excellent. Perfect for my needs.

I recently jumped ship and got a UniFi UNAS Pro to replace my aging DS918+, and it has been solid. Synology has served me well for decades (first model was a DS101g), but in their current form they’re overpriced and underperforming. A similar Synology NAS like the UNAS would cost double of the UNAS
