  • 220J and 420J Very Fast, Easy Setup, Reliable and Quiet
Size: 2-bay; 512MB DDR4 Style: DS220j
Since Amazon groups the 220J and the 420J together I cannot review the 420j separately so I am revising my 220J review to include the 420J. I got the 420j 15 months after the 220j and as expected the 420j is also excellent. I actually got a great bargain on the 420j from the Amazon Warehouse for a returned items whose package indistinguishable from new. I use the Synology 220J and 420j in a very simple way, to set it as the destination for the download of torrent files, backups, and for storing other large files I don't want to use up space on my solid-state drive. The PC is a Windows 10 and wired to a 1G LAN. Both NAS's are cabled directly to the 1G port of a Netgear r6700V3 router. AS long as I used wired (not wireless) the connection to both NAS is very fast even approaching the data limit of the 1G Ethernet interface. See the attached graph showing a speed test to both NASs from my laptop to each of the Synology units. Very fast indeed at the max capability of the 1Gb network. THE GOOD: -- EASY TO INSTALL: Doing very little more than installing the hard drives, letting the units run their initial installation, and then setting up a shared folder, and was quickly able to see the NAS's from both of my Windows 10 laptops. Very little to do to start using the NAS. -- FAST TORRENT SAVES: Saving torrent files over an ethernet cabled connection the speed was as fast as the torrent downloads themselves. Very pleased. -- GOOD STREAMING: I was able to play a 4K video from the 220J over the 1G LAN to an NVIDIA Shield with excellent results. No pausing or jerkiness. The 220j and the 1G LAN were not at all stressed by this. -- GOOD SUPPORT: I was impressed with the tech support. They were always available and reasonably knowledgeable but were unable to offer a reason for the slow torrents. -- QUIET: The fan in both units is surprisingly quiet and with adjustable speed. -- FAST FILE TRANSFER: When I copy a file from the PC (where Ive saved a torrented file) to the file it's very fast. I see speeds of 115 MBps on a 1G LAN. See the attached speed test for both units. -- VERY RELIABLE: Over 15 months of use the 220j NAS has been available 100% of the time, connecting to the network and operating over its web-based interface. I've had the 420j for only a week but I expect the same remarkable reliability from it. -- CAREFUL WITH DRIVE SELECTION: I only say this because I initially installed some good value Hitachi 4TB drives that turned out to be noisy as heck. They made a loud thumping sound as the heads moved, so much so I had to change the location of the 220j to another room where I would not hear it. -- QUIET HARD DRIVES: For the 420J I used 4ea Seagate Barracuda 4TB drives and I don't hear them at all. In fact, the fan is louder than any noise the drives make. The Bad: Not a thing. CONCLUSION: Both the 420j and the 220j do a lot of things and is probably much more sophisticated than I need and for the simple task of saving files from my PC over a LAN, but it's a great easy to setup and a supremely reliable solution. ... show more

  • Cost-effective, powerful and features-rich
Size: 2-bay; 512MB DDR4 Style: DS220j
I have always relied on cloud storage. But the problem with Google Drive and Dropbox is that I don't have the features for my use case. I want a storage space that is highly accessible and can allow me to stream my media content in my home theater setup. This was the answer to my needs. The system is compact and well built. Doesn't take up space. It is quiet. The Synology DSM operating system is just awesome. Easy to set up and has a ton of applications and features. I can also link my folders to a cloud service for extra redundancy in case there's a hardware failure or unexpected loss (fire or something). If you have a simple use case like I did (file sharing, backup, media streaming), my advice to you is: 1) Get this system, 2) don't cheap out on your selection of hard drives. I picked Seagate IronWolf hard drive. It is pricey but it is quiet and has been reliable thus far (bought it 14 months ago and it is still going strong). If you plan to store this little guy inside a closed area like a cabinet, I suggest you get a cooling fan to keep it cool which will extend its life and save you the money and hassle of having to replace this machine prematurely. I use AC Infinity AIRPLATE S5 which is absolutely great. Also if you are planning to put this on your local network, you need to consider the security aspect of protecting your files. You don't want to expose your files to viruses and hackers on the internet. I bought a cheap firewall appliance and installed pfsense on it. I have the NAS machine protected with firewall rules and an antivirus system. My firewall rules are setup to have the NAS accessible only by my secure network. Wifi guests and IoT devices cannot communicate with NAS. And NAS is only accessible from outside through the VPN service set up on the pfsense system. You can plan your own setup as it fits your needs. But the most important thing is don't underestimate the security threats out there. ... show more
