    All is well

    Used for archiving large volumes of data. Easy to assemble and use. The seller's advice was interesting, and after discussion he changed my mind about the equipment I was initially thinking about, without adding to the price. I can only hope that he was right in the long run. In any case, it's not just about selling, it's also about advice, and that's appreciated.

    NAS DS223

    I gave this rating for the welcome I received when I visited the shop. For the simple answers to my questions about the use of this NAS.
    I'm happy with my choice, this NAS is intended for storing family photos and 5 people can connect to it simultaneously without any problem.
    Thanks again for their advice and kindness.

    VERY GOOD HOME NAS SERVER

    A NAS server with a solid design, a simple, high-performance software suite and system-assisted installation. A good choice for securing home or SME data, with a recognised and controlled UPS (eaton), automated external backup (usb disk), programmable and effective antivirus scanning. In short, very good value for money. Highly recommended +++++

    As usual, nothing to complain about

    Bought to replace an old DS212 that could no longer be updated to the new version of the DSM (in my opinion, it's a bit like programmed obsolescence), there were no installation problems.
    All I had to do was replace the disks from the previous DS, and the migration was almost self-explanatory.

    Works perfectly

    Replacement for a DS213,
    The disks were recognised directly and a hassle-free update recovered all the data.
    Lots of possibilities with the latest version of DSM.
    Has been running for over a month with no problems.
