ASK NC

Dear friend,

I am trying to build a NAS environment suitable for home use, but I am still hesitant about the choice of brand and model. My requirements for NAS are as follows:

1. Total budget HK$7000
2. The space is large enough to back up photos, videos, computer systems, and files (maybe ~12T)
3. Information backup is safe enough to support RAID0, 1, 5, 6
4. The transfer speed is fast enough, large files can expect a 100M speed
5. Supports increased transfer speed, expandable SSD, and a preloaded files algorithm
6. Easy to use, support WIFI network access and synchronization
7. Low cost of use, no need for public network IP to realize NAS function
8. Support a wide range of systems, support Mac OS, Windows10+, ios, android

Looking forward to your help

The Synology DS920+ and the DS923+ both have their own unique features.

The DS920+ is a versatile and powerful 4-bay NAS that is designed for home and small office use. It provides remote media access support, which makes it easy to access your media files over the internet. It also supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10, and can be expanded with an additional DX517 expansion unit.

The DS923+ is a more powerful 4-bay NAS that is designed for small and medium-sized businesses. It supports 10Gbe and NVMe volume support which allows you to achieve faster transfer speeds. It also supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10, and can be expanded with an additional DX517 expansion unit.

Both devices are easy to use, support WIFI network access and synchronization, and is compatible with a wide range of systems including Mac OS, Windows10+, ios, and android.

In summary, If you are looking for a powerful device with fast transfer speeds and expandable storage, the DS923+ would be a good option. But if you are looking for a device that is designed for home and small office use, with remote media access support, the DS920+ would be a good option.
