    My First Synology NAS, the DS-410j

    Well I finally bit the bullet and went for the 410. It was so much cheaper than the 411+ and more suited to my needs than the 410j. Managed to get it for £336 + 3% Quidco after using a £20 off voucher and free delivery at dabs.com. Pretty happy with that and can't wait to get it set up now.

    Interesting point and I suppose the most I can envisage the NAS doing at any one time is downloading NZBs whilst potentially streaming 1080p content and possibly music to another part of the house (I am looking to ultimately set up a Sonos system to access an iTunes server on the NAS). The only...

    New Synology Models DS411J, DS211J, DS211, DS111

    Hi all. First post here but have been lurking for a little while. Been reading up a little on NAS units and have narrowed it down to Synology or QNAP. Had thought I had pretty much made up my mind for the Synology DS411j but have just read this review at overclock3d and they seem to think its...
