Very useful video, thanks. As a long time user of QNAP NAS, but with frustrations, I've been thinking about adding a 2-bay Synology to form my own conclusions in terms of which is 'better'. It won't be the DS223 though - it seems to have too many limitations.
Great video, thank you!
Thx for your review !
I hear you saying, it can take 6 months till Plex is available on ds223. Well, I think a lot of people will just wait till a + version will be out.
Great review, straight to the point on so many aspects, thank you
THNX voor the review , so it is beter to buy a old synology with DSM 6, more codeds
Hope your right. Just bought one under 200 us to replace my 10 year old WD ex2. Great video
would you reccomend the 220＋ over the 223? kinda on the fence....the price difference is roughly 30$ right now....
I am very new in NAS, but what do you recommend for small office with 3-4 people working from home? we only edit documents and sharing picture to our client. Thanks
Hello, can I use SSD disks to store information instead of HHD disks in this model Synology D723
I didn't get. 220+ or 223 in 2023 for home only? please give me your imho
which one is better ds223 or ds220+ (if they are at the same price)
which is better if compared with DS220+ ? thank you
I need a NAS can someone help. Mainly for backup and access by a few different devices. I will stream some tutorial videos but don’t think I need anything crazy for transcoding etc. 2 bay is fine. What do you suggest please. Thank you.
Salutare si mulțumim pentru review...intenționez să achiziționez un astfel de DAS pentru a-l folosi împreună cu un Intel NUC ca si server Plex...se pretează pentru o astfel de utilizare,ținând cont că voi rula prin server fișiere 4K cu bitrate intre 70-90 mbs/sec ? Din ce am ințeles se pot folosi 2 harduri într-un tip de RAID,iar celelalte 2 in alt tip ? Se pot utiliza si harduri WD Red Plus ? Mulțumesc anticipat !
You said this is a 218 replacement,is there a 220j replacement coming?
I bought this to be a HyperBackup repository for my 'main' Synology NAS. That's all it does.
Given that my Netgear ReadyNAS is now useless for the most part due to Netgear shutting down ReadyCloud, I'm looking for a 2 bay NAS solution as my home media server. I already have the Synology 920+ to backup my work as a photographer and the overall experience of DSM is far superior to anything Netgear ever had with their ReadyCloud service. Wondering how much of a difference there is between the DS223 and the DS223j for streaming videos and music as well as if I might need remote access outside of my home network while away from home. Really don't want to be opening ports on my Synology Router as I'd like to keep it as secure as possible and want something that is as easy to setup and run as possible. JUst not sure which model to go with albeit I'm not thrilled with the 223j being white in color
Should I get the DS220+ or Ds223?
On my market DS220+ is 40 more expensive. Is it worth it?
I just need it for photos / video backups from the phone. (raid config în case of hdd failure)
I don't use plex but I would like the option to video any recorded video on the phone directly on TV
I’m in same position as you, I’m just waiting to see what the 223+ is like before I make my mind up
@@markwalker652 I got the 223 and i`m happy with it. I need it mostly for pictures and video backup. Now I can clear the space from my phone memory.
I'm new to NAS, would this DS223 be sufficient for simply backing up my MacBook?
It's plenty powerful for system backup. Synology software is super easy to use.
it's at least DS213+ that I'm using still. it got SD card and usb ports. Insane to lose all these ports in this "new" product
I have a ds213 as well. Still going strong
Thks & !DS223+ or Bust!
What playback device doesn't support HEVC these days?? A Firestick will do 4K HEVC in its sleep. And 2.5GbE networking is still pretty expensive.
Can it run Jellyfin?
Let me say this. I enjoy every second of your reviews. You personally are spectacular. However, Synology has to get their head out of their rear ends, and the very first thing that I'll look at is to see what data speed the Ethernet port(s) offer. Literally for free I would not take a 1 GbE NAS .. It's like a phone company trying to push a 3G phone today. 3G 1GbE, 4G 2.5GbE and 5G 10GbE.
They do. But if you want 10GbE, you need to spend the money for it... not expect a budget solution to carry it
@@ocelotxp .. I'm well aware of what Synology offers, you can trust that I know. However, like the analogy goes .. Would you buy a 3G phone today? The cost difference between a 1GbE and 2.5GbE port is less than $5, but the speed difference is not only 2.5X faster, but it's also a bottleneck even on mechanical single drives. 1GbE is 125MB/s and most NAS mechanical drives are 150 MB/s to 200 MB/s. Also any NAS that offers M.2 caching should only offer 2.5GbE with a 10GbE upgradable option. I still see Synology with their M.2 offerings with only 1GbE which is obscenely bad for the consumer. Listen. I'm giving Synology a pass under pathetically bad processors. Frankly, I think anything that's for home use, which is the vast majority of their offerings should only use Intel CPUs with Quick Sync, but I'll save that gripe for another video. The sad thing is Synology has a great operating system and is fairly reliable and it's a crying shame that they shoot themselves and the foot so hard. Another analogy is Synology is like buying a Porsche 911 with three wheels and a 3 cylinder engine.
Keep in mind this is entry level stuff.
@@xanderx51 .. So $5 bucks more isn't entry level??
@@DJaquithFL I'm just saying for some folks it's not a big consideration at this level. Even if I happen to agree with u.
Cool
Hi, I am using a Synology NAS for my NAS purpose use cases. Additionally I'm using an Icy 2 bay USB docking station. But that docking station does not perform well. Because using 2 HDD in that 2 bay Docking station makes problems. I need a substitution: A 2 bay USB HDD adapters for my backups. I know a DS2xx would be somehow overpriced but can I use such a DS2xx as simple USB 2 bay docking station ?
dont get toshiba n300 noisy, especially placing in your bed room.Keep hearing like a child biting and chewing on hard biscuit sound whenever when theres like read and write on the drive...
I have really, REALLY, R E A L LY attempted to work with DSM the other week, and as a avid QNAP user, I felt neutered!
I feel the same way about this DS223 hardware-specs; why in Heaven's Ways you want to neuter a beginners-user due to so-so (ARM) CPU and not all the "toppings" (features) available (of DSM) when that user grows and may expect/want more but not available unless this NAS is replaced with a more powerful version? (rip-and-replace).
AFAIK with QNAP value-series, their Apps are available as per QTS version, not as per what (QNAP) you are using?
If I really want to "speak evil", Synology is making money 2x ways; by a limited NAS (hardware) and also limiting DSM (and relevant licenses). It would be way more earthmoving if the DS223 would offer some "beginners" multimedia support (like Plex etc). I'm really sorry, but again proof to me that Synology's hardware is so-so unless you go to their enterprise-level, whilst their software may appeal to some (not to me).
No buy DS223, buy DS220+ or any other brand. DS220+ #1 supports DMS 7 , #2 Support BTRFS/snapshots, #3 DS220+ supports more drives the DS223,#4 DS220+ similar noise to DS223 and similar wattage, #5 DS223 one extra USB port is only real advantage over DS220+.
They should all come by default with 10Gb ethernet
The DS220+ is cheaper and seems to do more, I wouldn’t buy this.
Neanche gratis ne vale la pena.
Dude: slow down please. Even the captions transcriber gave up trying to follow you, lol.
