    NAS purchased on 14/11/2022. After three years of use, I am satisfied with what it offers. Lack of power to encode video streams. I mainly use it as a large hard drive in RAID 5. 4x8TB. I back up my websites on it. Nowadays, you can find better value for money.

    Super Nas

    This was my first NAS, and I've had it for 5 years now. No problems to report after 5 years of daily use. No breakdowns or faults. Runs 24/7.

    The NAS server and its two hard disks are up and running in no time.

    Adding the extra memory card suggested proved useful for good responsiveness. The extra disk space ordered for my PC is always useful when taking photos for my German Shepherd kennel.

    very good product

    Very easy to use and works very well on our network. I'm withdrawing one star because it's quite noisy and shouldn't be used in a living room.

    an easy-to-implement SIN, but...

    a NAS that is easy to set up, but...
    The DS920+ NAS that I ordered and received in the shop within a reasonable time frame is exactly what I expected. The web management interface (updated) is much better than what I experienced on my previous WD NAS. I have equipped my new NAS with 4 HDDs in Raid 5 mode and the File Station package (application) manages the files without any problems. However, after populating the HDDs with (part of - more to come -) my data files - notably about 100,000 photos - I installed the Synology Photos package (latest version). First problem, the name of the managed folder is imposed (Photo) and does not correspond to what I have already loaded. I then had the unpleasant surprise to find - after 2 days of indexing - many of my photos upside down. I then discovered that on the Syno forums users were already complaining about this problem in 2017! Moreover Synology Photos does not manage the folders I created and I would have to re-sort and re-fold them manually in its interface (100,000 photos to split!). Bad point for Synology. I uninstalled this app. Fortunately, File Station allows me to display image files as thumbnails and keeps my filing in folders. Otherwise, the remote file management interface on mobile (equivalent to the local File Station) is fine. That's it for now.

    Excellent impression

    To replace a Nas Synology DS212+ that had become slow, and taking advantage of a promotion
    I jumped at the chance, knowing that I was looking at QNAP for the Multi-Gigabit Ethernet ports.
    The migration from the DS212+ worked, but not perfectly, the multimedia services were no longer functional.
    So complete installation from scratch in RAID5 with 4 x 3TB WD Red drives.
    DSM 7 is a good surprise with new packages Active Backup, Docker, Virtual Machine Manager.
    The DS420+ is responsive, it's really a pleasure. Yes, I have pumped it up to the max: Added 4GB of ram and 2 Samsung 500GB NVMe SSDs.
    For the Multi-Gig Ethernet, as indicated in the questions section I installed a driver available on GitHub which works very well, with an ASUS 2.5Gb card in USB 3. File copies are now done at 280 mo/s. PC backups are fast with Active Backup.
    I finally find the pleasure to use my Nas.
