The Synology DS923+ is a 4-bay NAS solution that you can customize and expand as needed, with optional support for up to nine drives, faster networking, and NVMe SSDs for additional caching or storage groups. Powered by Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM), it offers a flexible all-in-one solution for data sharing, synchronization, backup and monitoring.

With intuitive and comprehensive file management, media organization, and backup options, the Synology DS923+ NAS is the ideal tool for computer enthusiasts and professionals looking for a powerful and compact storage system.

Versatile Storage for All Uses

  • Sequential read performance of up to 625MB/s and sequential write performance of up to 559MB/s enable fast file sharing, synchronization, streaming and backup for multiple users.
  • Supports 4 x 2.5"/3.5" SATA HDD/SSD expandable up to 9 drives with Synology DX517 expansion unit.
  • Up to 32GB of DDR4 ECC memory to ensure protection against potential crashes and accidental data changes with automatic data error correction.
  • Two 1 GbE RJ45 ports can be linked using link aggregation to provide automatic network failover and load balancing.
  • Upgrade your storage platform to meet the most demanding needs with two built-in M.2 2280 NVMe SSD slots and an optional 10GbE RJ-45 network upgrade module (E10G22-T1-Mini).

Private Cloud

Access files from all your devices and protect them with intelligent versioning. Manage, share and synchronise your data across multiple locations.

  • Create your own personal cloud with Synology's private cloud solution. Simplify file access and consolidate data management for easy file sharing and collaboration.
  • Efficiently back up and organize your photos and videos with management tools for amateurs and professionals. Automatically organise your content into albums and create secure sharing links for family, friends or clients.
  • Cross-site file sync allows collaborators to sync individual files or folders between Synology devices, whether at home, in the office, or around the world. Combine convenient access with full data ownership.
  • Reduce the footprint of your on-premises storage and take advantage of the network throughput offered by data centres with Hybrid Cloud Technology. Set up Hybrid Share folders to efficiently store your cold data in the cloud, while keeping frequently used files cached locally on your DS923+ and accessible with LAN throughput.

Multi-layer backup

Back up files, folders, physical devices, virtual machines, and SaaS applications with free solutions, and protect your NAS with built-in technologies.
  • Consolidate and automate backup tasks for PCs, file servers, virtual machines, SaaS applications and more with Active Backup Suite. Manage remote device backups through a centralized portal and quickly restore specific files or entire devices to keep your business running smoothly. Integrated remote backup solutions make it easy to set up 3-2-1 backups.
  • Protect all data, applications, and configurations of your Synology systems with full scheduled backups to local and remote servers, external drives, or cloud storage destinations, including Synology C2 Storage.
  • Set up the creation of efficient snapshots, shared folders, and LUNs, at a specific point in time and at intervals of only five minutes. Allow users to easily restore previous versions of files without assistance, quickly recover virtual machines, and copy snapshots to another server for fast storage failover.

Smart Monitoring

Turn your Synology device into a complete video management system for a wide range of compatible IP cameras.

  • Protecting your business has never been easier with centralized management, support for over 8,300 IP camera models, and remote monitoring and playback. Synology's video management system provides all the tools you need for live monitoring, investigation, management and backup.
  • C2 Surveillance allows you to continue accessing surveillance footage if your recording server is disabled, by saving it on your local server as well as on C2 Cloud. End-to-end encryption protects streams from unauthorised access, while low-latency recording allows you to view the last crucial seconds recorded before losing the connection to the server.

    Fast but limited

    Good product, as usual for the brand.
    Very easy to migrate from an older model.
    A few negative points:
    - only 4GB of memory, which is a bit stingy given the price
    - still gigabit for the network, the expansion card for 10G is very expensive
    - noisier fans than the DS918+
    - some functions are lost if the disks used are not those certified for the model
    - guaranteed compatibility and support with almost only the brand's accessories, including storage, whereas this was more open on previous models
    For all these limitations, I'm taking away one star.
    LDLC team perfect for service and answers

    top of the range synology NAS... ram memory a little limited

    it's Synology: very good ergonomics.
    easy to install disks and cache SSDs
    DSM 7, the NAS OS is very stable and mature.
    I use the NAS moderately intensively at times and the 4GB of RAM is limited! with VMs I'm not sure how well it works.
    and to have more than 1Gb on the network you need an optional card! good but expensive

    Still the best SINs

    I bought this Synology DS923+ to replace my DS416Play (which still works fine, but its advanced age has prompted me to look for a replacement...)

    Same DSM version, no surprises... I put back the same packages/applications and transferred everything without any problem.
    I have a personal/semi-pro use: CIFS shares mainly, but also Office 365 backup (Active backup for 365), OneDrive sync (CloudSync), and data backup of several PCs (Synology Drive).

    The performance is much better than my DS416 - which is logical, since there is a big difference in generation, CPU, and especially RAM. It is therefore more reactive (initial opening of a share for example) and faster (transfer rate).

    I didn't put any options in it (no SSD, or additional RAM). 4 HDD Seagate IronWolf 4 Tb. ( 1 btrfs raid of 10.5Tb). I hope that these HDDs will be more robust than my old Western Digital Red 3Tb (WD30), of which 2 of the 4 had problems in the long run (defective sectors / alarming s.m.a.r.t...) and that I had to change twice.
