If you're looking for a budget-friendly Synology NAS for backups, both the DS220j and DS220+ are good options.
The Synology DS220j is a simple and affordable 2-bay NAS that's well-suited for home media and data storage. It has a dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, and supports up to 32TB of storage. It's a good choice for those who are looking for a simple and budget-friendly option for basic backup needs.
The Synology DS220+ is a more powerful option compared to the DS220j, as it has a dual-core processor and 2GB of RAM. It also has a number of additional features and capabilities, such as the ability to run virtual machines and containers, and support for more advanced backup options like snapshots and real-time remote replication.
In conclusion, the Synology DS220j is a good choice for those who are looking for a simple and budget-friendly option for basic backup needs, while the Synology DS220+ is a better choice for those who need more functionality and advanced backup options. Both devices offer good value for their price, and they're a great choice for those who want a budget-friendly Synology NAS that still delivers good performance and features.
