First NAS - Enquiries - 07-09-2022
Hi, I'm looking for a NAS for my home. I'm undecided between the DS220J and the DS220+.
I would use it (4 people max using it) for File Storage (also remotely), video playback (Mostly inside the house, without transcoding if possible), Photo Sync with Synology Photos, and for a docker station so that I can run some light programs a password manager from inside my home.
The only 3 issues I have with the DS220J are: Can I run docker without eating all of the RAM? Is half a gig of memory enough for my daily tasks? Can I stream my video files to my TV (The file will play from a USB stick on the TV and a simple Network Shared folder from Windows)?
Thanks for reading this, I just need to know which one to buy.
