DiskStation DS218+

I went from a DS218+ to a TS-664 (was waiting on the 923+ from Synology and that crapped out). I've been pretty happy with it and the 664 was better hardware specs and more storage space for less money. I left existing data on my 218+ and built 664 from new drives and just transferred data over via

Io attualmente ho un Nas Synology 218+ che uso come archiviazione di rete e per qualche container docker, nonostante la vecchiaia funziona senza perdere un colpo.

The Synology would be an AIO solution with lots of features. I've had my DS218+ running non-stop for 6+ years a

Absolutely agree. The Ugreen is way , way more machine for the money, but the Synology is easier to figure out and e Work with. I have bothe a dxp2800 and a Synology DS218+. The software on the Synology does more stuff that the offerings on the ugreen, but ugreens offering will grow. If you go Synol
