Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality


After having such a good experience with the ds409 and the ds 109 i recently took delivery on a new ds214play


The user interface isnt awesome but it works out fine and is easy to deal with


Overall i am reasonably satisfied with the nas so far


Still the streaming quality is really good event with 1080p formats 720p max for mkv with apple tv

Packaging/appearance


My very much older synology diskstation was unable to reliably process audiovideo on the fly to my chromecast


Once the synology nas is setup it is not completely hands off

Competitiveness


The features and peace of mind easily pay for themselves when considering these nas units over the competition


The synology units seem to be a bit more expensive than the competition but are worth every penny


Didnt even recognize my 2tb external usb drive


If you cant afford this model i would still recommend a less expensive synology nas model
