A 6 TB hard drive loaded into one of the Synology caddies, ready to be slotted into the main unit You pop out the tray, load in a hard drive (it fits in only one way), and then insert it like an old Nintendo cartridge. The DS 920+ has four slots on the front of the unit, each containing a hard drive tray. Setting up the hardware is as user-friendly as possible. Plus, the DS 920+ has a quad-core Intel Celeron CPU powerful enough to support running virtual machines, which lets you do things like run Linux or Windows. Since I also want to use my NAS as a media server, I checked Plex’s compatibility spreadsheet and saw that the DS 920+ has some of the best support for hardware transcoding among the Synology options in its price range. I ended up with the DiskStation DS 920+ after running a few different scenarios through the Synology NAS selector. Years of dawdling and ruminating on options weren’t getting me any closer to a solution. Easy to buy, easy to set up, easy to maintain. Ultimately, what pushed me to Synology was that it’s the easy option. Synology setup is practically idiot-proof, and the company makes it easy to set up two-factor authentication and a domain name for your server. ![]()
