Prime Day is coming up and Synology is having a big sale. This won't just be on Amazon, in fact, it's probably best to check B&H first. So, look at the links above to see how good the deals are.
I've been using a Synology DS918+ since it came out. I loved it, but it was time for an upgrade. The biggest difference here is that we can install a 10 GbE ethernet adapter, two M.2 NVMe SSDs. and plenty of ram. The DS923+ allows you to create storage pools with your M.2 NVMe... so combine that with the 10 GbE (also runs at 2.5 if that's what you have) and you can edit 4k videos right from the nas.
Check out the video for all the details.

Won't lie, I'm loving this recent obsession of yours with servers and NAS devices!
what "recent obsession" ? This is the only video NAS related...
I am the proud owner of your previous NAS. Thanks! It's been running great.
Cheers! Let me know how it's doing.
A video going in-depth on VMs would be fantastic
Man I've never done it but I always thought setting up Nas is really cool, ha my powers have grown beyond your control and now I am the Spotify! Mwahahaha!
Hey @teksyndicate , How much max capacity NVME m.2 SSD we can use individually in DS923+ NAS. I am buying after your response. It will more helpful if u reply.
Thanks for the explanation of the naming convention. I've always been curious, but never curious enough to actually look it up lmao
looks a great bit of kit .
is it worth it to buy a DS923+ in july 2024? I have a MyCloudEX2 and I am looking forward to have Docker and other apps NAS to run home assistant and plex plus the backup of course. However the hardware seems little outdated. any thoughts?
I realize there are some cool features with the Synology platform, but I'm likely gonna do the DIY thing for my first NAS. I just love a good computer build. It will still have plenty of utility and will become a fun Homelab/Linux platform learning experience for me as I want to expand my knowledge and get into some more IT-adjacent kind of work.
Interested in hearing more about VMs on the NAS. :)
since you're using Audio Station, do you happen to have problems with whole albums being skipped on playback? I've been having all kinds of problems with FLAC files and Synology support couldn't figure out anything, multiple times,
ended up wiping all .cue sheets splitting into individual tracks, and completely disabling .cue support in Audio Station but still many files fail to play, randomly after system updates, reboots etc... as if the indexing service screwed its database randomly
damn what a perfect time for this video im in the market for a good NAS right now!
I recently put my UGreen DXP8800 NAS to some abuse of 10TB+ transfer & syncs of data in the past 4 days and it choked. I also have a lot of docker containers running 24/7 on it. No lost data though. Just had to forcefully reboot it... lol This NAS is more for fun and learning as well as a backup media server.
My important data lives on my Synology DS1621xs+ that has an old but reliable Intel Xeon CPU and 32GB ECC RAM. Been running for years 24/7 without missing a beat~ 💪
Deus Ex at the top where it belongs 👌
Hi tek,
using this kit,am I obligated to use synology m.2 ssd?
As someone who (quickly realized) they bought an under powered Synology as their first NAS, I haven't really done much but backups because of all the limitations (including & especially my network) I'd dig deeper dives on some of the other Synology apps like photos/music etc. Got a question though, I have 0 need for a 9 bay NAS, can you add extra RAM, 10gbe, & pool memory to one of the smaller ones?
@teksyndicate How does this compare to your Asustor AS6704T? Which would you recommend for an all purpose NAS? Thanks!
Didn't you just upgrade to a ugreen because it had 10 gig and better ports (arguably better than this one even)? Did that one not work out for you?
Sponsorships vs Real life 😊
That naming thing (the nr 9) can't be right? I have a DS214play and I can plug in the 5 bay expansion bay,..so the number should be DS7XXX. I am always so confused by the naming of their disk stations..
Other than that, your video was helpful
can i use Samsung 990 PRO SSD 1TB PCIe 4.0 M.2 instead of synology
Aye bro what version of FL you using these days still 10 or 11?
Congrats on the 666k subs!
Long time viewer hear... This is off topic, but prime day just came on and I am looking at the Hifiman edition XS and I would love a recommendation for a dac+amp for my PC. I basically want to pay the minimum for now without destroying the audio quality of the headphones. Coming from sony 7506 with angled earpads, I am hoping this will be a big bump. Any advice input would be appreciated. ***this is for the holy trifecta.. gaming, music, and movies.
I'd really like to know how to setup networking to securely share photos with family in Synology photos without making my mom learn how to use a VPN. Everything I've read has made me super paranoid about allowing access to any Synology apps without a VPN.
Moving your old drives over to the new? I also have a DS918, but it’s like 5 years old by now. Hoping Synology will upgrade their line soon but then I will also buy new hdd’s. How old were yours? I guess after 5-6 years it’s about time to buy new drives anyway
I actually replaced my drives earlier this year. I had 4 smaller drives in my DS918... so I get my new, larger EXOS drives... and I swapped the first one out... waited a couple days for everything to update... then swapped the second out and waited a couple day, etc. After a week, all my drives were working. That's one of the things I really like about Synology's Raid... you can swap out different drives. If your current drives are not reporting any issues, they should be good to go. You can swap them out, one at a time, whenever one goes bad.
@@teksyndicate Guess that might be the way to go when upgrading to a new NAS 👍
I have a DS918+ and it irritates the crap out of me how outdated Docker is on DSM. It's Docker 20.10.3, latest is 24.0.9, so Synology is 4 major versions behind, which is just unacceptable. This keeps me from being able to have one Docker Compose stack include another Docker Compose stack. I can probably manually update it, but I haven't attempted it as I figured it might break Synology's Container Manager or something.
I got a synology NAS a year ago and I love it. How I managed to live without a NAS for so long is beyond me.
The only thing I have trouble with is accessing my files remotely through SMB or webDAV.
I use tail scale to connect into my network, I can map network drives on a Windows client remotely, however as soon as I go to transfer files the transfer stops after a few moments.
The only work around I found is to use Synology drive through a web browser to download files over the internet.
Do you know if there's a better way?
Ever tried webdrive?
@@teksyndicate first time hearing about it, I'll look it up
Yeah, i’ve always had problems with smb when doing long transfers, either it stops or speed slows to a crawl.
Switched to FTP protocol and solved it. I use filezilla.
@@teksyndicate seems like it's still uses webDAV.
I'll just use FTP
Thanks for the video, u talk really fast
Could have gotten 32gb of ram for cheaper if you didn’t go with synology branded.
The NVME cards did absolutely nothing to improve the performance of my DS940+, what a waste of money..
It feels like this is a sponsored video in some way...
Why did you moved away from Asustor?
When he did the Asustor videos he said he used both. His important work stuff was on the Synology and he was using the Asustor for other stuff.
The bottom line is that Synology's hardware is objectively crap compared to their competitors at similar price points, but most people consider DSM (the software) leagues ahead of their competitors. I personally find DSM pretty limiting and tend to stick with third party apps instead of first party ones anyway, as I don't want to get trapped in a particular ecosystem, so it doesn't really do much for me.
DSM is going to be more reliable than the others, but you could get an Asustor and put TrueNAS Scale on it and it would be as rock solid as DSM is, it's just that TrueNSS Scale requires a certain willingness to learn that DSM doesn't.
I've always used Synology for all my important stuff. I have an asustor that's full of movies.
Less time upgrading NAS and more time focusing on your move to Japan?
Tech ain't cheap in Japan. Gotta upgrade before he goes.
Synology is overpriced vendor lock nonsense. I’ll never use em again.
What’s your current set up after switching? I’m debating between this and just diy’ing my own. The biggest pull towards Synology is the DM software, it just seems so good and people say it’s very reliable and “set it and forget it”.
