We are selling Syno boxes for safe storage and we wait for DS923+ as a holy grail to refresh our business. Synology is goin down last 2 years, HW and SW is worse, they even started charging for Active Insight - for every box. THey have C2 object storage but no immutability. No Mac client for Active Backup. Its ridiculous. We honestly are preparing for Truenas alternative. With Vmware going downhill too we may switch to Proxmox/Trunas finaly.
Great Vids , I brought a 920+ a month ago , coudnt wait ... very hapy with it , still setting it up and loading data ... keep on making these , really helped me. thx
The lack of hardware encoding for Plex is a killer for me. I went with a 1520+ which is effectively a 5 bay 920+ with 8gb of memory. I am very pleased on the step up from my old 412+.
The amount of time, effort and money I spent on building a plex server with all of my favorite shows and movies, I could have officially purchased and watched all of them.
@@GregoryCunningham Yea same here. I just recently upgraded my Plex. Had a Qnap TS-653D with 6x 12TB and now upgraded to the TS-664 with 6x 22TB. I can finally have SSD speed for the apps and use all the HDD as storage, a function the 653-D lacks. But yea, as a PMS the QNAP isthe way to go, for productive work I prefer Synology.
As most, I suspect, home users will use their NAS for film and videos the downgrading of transcoding as suggested is a farce. I could care less about 2.5 or 10 gbe but i do care about 4k
I already pre-ordered the Qnap Tvs-Htvs-h674-i5-32g-us... I just returned the Ds1621xs+, due to 4k streaming lack, I love the easy way to set up and safety of the Synology but I don't like the way they are approaching to the guys using the multimedia, I am not using this for Business, but I have a tone of 4k family videos that we want to be streaming with not crazy buffering, I want something future proof specially when we are in the horizon of the 4k video as the common denominator for every family video, the same way I did learn to use the Synology I will learn to use the Qnap.
Also based on your reports and tests, I ordered the 920+ yesterday, together with 4 gb additional ram, 3 WD red plus 4 TB HDDs, all was delivered today and everything will be assembled tomorrow. 😁
I picked up the 920+ a couple weeks ago and finally got it set up and all data transferred over. I do wish it has 2.5 or 10GB ports, or SPF+ ports, but I'm going to do link aggregation and that should help (just waiting for parts for my network). Is it worth wait month, or years, for a "maybe"? Not in my case. I put in the extra memory, and 4 18TB WD Red Pro drives in and she runs like a top (aside from copying lots of data at once). Not sure if I want to put in SSD's or not.
920+ user here. How reliable are the 2.5GBe adaptors for this device? I saw the github page on drivers for a number of adaptors, paired with DSM7. It could help extended the life of this NAS.
I bought the DS920+ this month, and am extremely satisfied. I put 2 250gb nvme ssd as cache, extra 4gig ram, and 2 Ironwolves 8TB. Looking forward to add 2 more 8TB drives to populate the nas completely. The only question I have is : My NAS seems not to go to sleep ever, even with this option turned on on settings. Any thoughts about it? Thanks!
Since there's absolutely NO guarantee that Synology won't completely s**t the bed again like they did with the 1522+, and they probably will, I'd say go ahead and get the 920+ rather than waiting. Assuming you still want to buy a Synology product that is. And that's a pretty big IF these days.
Is there much different between the 4 Bay 920+ and the 4 Bay 420+? Looking to get my first nas for home storage and potential media server for films etc. The actual specs of a nas confuse me slightly, I think I'd prefer to get a 4 Bay and only fill 2 of the bays for now, instead of just getting the 2 Bay with no scope for further redundancy. Any advice for you lovely people would be appreciated
Still really pleased with my DS918+, when I’m not working with videos and my Pentax K1 have rather small RAW-files. A friend who has a Sony a7r4 and a similar NAS it’s quite ok for as well, even if the RAW-files are about 100 MB each. Would be a lift to have 2.5 GBe, but 10 GBe is still quite expensive for home usage. Anyone who has an idea about how many years it’s relatively secure to run a NAS for? I guess maybe 5 years or so? Of course I have backup, and RAID, so maybe I can run for more years.
I'm in the market for a 2 drive synology device but i'm not buying anything until there is an update. Not for that amount of money. I'm not even in the market for a 4 drive setup. But for me it's a lot of money.
There is a real chance that Synology are going to cock this up. I have a feeling that the 920/918+ etc are very popular models. Bought by people who know what they want or recommended by people who know what they want. I think the add on 10gb card is a bit of a piss take on the 4 bay model, at that price. A 2.5 port built in, on that device will hit the sweet spot, and keep sales high. The ds923 needs a substantial processor upgrade, but that gfx option is also key. If they cock it up, they drive users to other brands and it's hard to get them back. However, if they do anything different to the 5 bay, people will be hugely annoyed.
Where in the uk is the 920+ £450? cheapest I’ve seen it at the moment is £480 at laptops direct. Sorry mate but it is irritating when you give prices that are not available.

Just bought the 920 Plus. Not gonna wait and the machine does exactly what I need for now and the years to come.
That's the same for me!

I wish Synology had a good and affordable 6 bay NAS that supports Plex 4k transcoding.
Me too, I had to go QNAP. They actually understand customer demand. I just wish they understood how to make a secure OS.

I wish to know where you can find 920+ at 400 450 price range. In Europe is always 580€ minimum price
Actually 520 minimum now in NL, but your point still stands
Is Synology ever going to release new dual/quad bay consumer devices?
As most, I suspect, home users will use their NAS for film and videos the downgrading of transcoding as suggested is a farce. I could care less about 2.5 or 10 gbe but i do care about 4k
If i buy the 920+ now how long will it be suported ?

This has been my EXACT setup for the past few months, and it's FLAWLESS. You cannot go wrong with the 920+.
Just got mine delivered today, never been THAT excited for a long while 😁

So where do they go with the announcement that the Celeron processor line is ending. Maybe that delays the 923 till a replacement is decided.

Drives will work even if you browse a app on the phone.... Without any operation on hdd.
@@Artquad That's what I tought. So it's normal not to sleep, right?

😂🤣 I hate seagulls….Part of me watchs these for the seagulls 😂
I hear seagulls and Mafia1 theme intro immediately .
would this NAS be good for video editing ?

video and audio seems to be out of sync
Always been a thing on this channel.

Yes, same is rest of Europe. I never saw this in the range bellow 550€
Dude, something's wrong with the audio on this video. It's out of sync
120 for 10Gbit network ... well .. better go to QNAP then ...
中国市场ds920+严重缺货，与去年相比价格上涨15-20%。剩下的自己猜。
Shut up ... i just bought a 920+ ... !!!! ;D
