Synology DS1823XS+ 8 BAY 8GB DDR4

Product Information

The extra cost of an 8 bay vs a 4 bay is easily saved by the ability to continue to use my older, smaller HDD’s. I think the mistake people make with NAS and especially raid5/6 is they think its a backup and its not. Synology Hyper Backup – Backup your NAS safely and efficiently to multiple destinations with deduplication, integrity checks, compression, and versioning.

This is mostly useful for people looking to either run a lot of virtual machines / docker containers, or have tons of security cameras. This was so nearly a slam dunk for me – I’ve been waiting for the DS3617xs+ replacement for what seems like forever, but the vendor lock-in is a deal-breaker for me. Now, to cover the WHOLE Synology software and services that are included with the DS1823xs+ NAS would result in a review that is twice as long as this review so far! coming soon enough) have reduced the range of use of the USB ports of Synology NAS systems (removing many network adapters, DTV tuners, wireless dongles, office accessories such as printers, scanners and optical drives), and limiting them largely to storage, UPS’ and assigning them to VMs. I’ll hope the upgrade to the currently selling DS1821+ comes before the end of the year and with a decent processor.The CPU is a AMD Ryzen V1780B, which has gotten a pretty huge speed upgrade compared to the DS1821+. Reason is, I use a 2nd and 3rd nas as backups, and if a drive fails I just copy the data onto its replacement, that way I just keep 1 nas running, otherwise 2 would be on all the time, I do a backup using goodsync once or twice a month, I tried synolgys drive sync, too automatic.

That said, the DS1823xs+ NAS has a little bit of an identity crisis when you scale it up with the rest of the larger tiers of the Synology portfolio and, although I genuinely like it, seems to be a system that exists BETWEEN the Synology PLUS and XS series (see my points about the RS2423+) and when you look at it in that context, it sees the tiniest bit more expensive than it should be. And ofcourse raid isn’t backup, always make back ups because if it goes terrible wrong you can lose all your data no matter what setup you have. Note* – Regarding picture quality, this is a BIG video (so many features to cover in a single video) and YouTue can sometimes be a little slow to process HD and 4K uploads, so if this video is in low-quality for you, maybe come back in an hour or so, as YouTube should have finished processing it and have the 4K, 1080p and 720p versions done.I had a slightly different experience from what is expressed here, though I’m not casting any doubt on the validity of the information. This includes the system itself, information on the included 5 years hardware warranty (the system’s software support lasts for much, much longer – especially as it is an XS system), first time setup instructions, screws+keys for the storage bays, 2x network cables and a mains power cable. This is due to the fact that with mix-matched drive sizes, SHR can give you non consistent performance, something not acceptable to the XS+ units.

Interestingly, the Synology DS1823xs+ also arrives with a further 100MB/s copper network port, however, this one is a relatively new inclusion to the Synology NAS hardware portfolio and is a much more useful alternative to the coms port usually found on RS/XS/SA series. Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page. When I contacted them about a possible issue with that batch they spewed out the corporate boiler plate response saying that wasn’t the case and that their hard drives were of very high quality blah blah blah. Made that mistake with my first NAS, 5 bay and only filled it with 3x8TB (1 for redundancy) drives adding another 2 later on. Also there is a difference yet again when you compare something like a RAID 10 to a pool of mirrors instead.

in case of business you need IOPs and you do not care about noise because you have a datacenter (for small that it can be), so smaller disks in higher number give you better performance anche noise means Enterprse disks which have higher number of TB/year. Good to see everyone feels the same way when they lose money, everyone thinks they could do this or that with that money which is as good as gone, instead people refuse to seek help from professionals. Now, this PCIe downgrading still means that you can get 1,000MB/s out of most Gen 3 SSDs and if you factor an appropriate RAID to the drives installed, you will get speeds around the 1,400-1,600MB/s in a perfect setup. If you are looking at the DS1823xs+ NAS and fully intend to scale up the storage, external bandwidth or memory in the next two years, I would recommend skipping this and opting for the DS3622xs+ instead. Where possible (and where appropriate) please provide as much information about your requirements, as then I can arrange the best answer and solution to your needs.

my first NAS was a Drobo, it had a volume limit of 16 TB , when 4TB+ disks arrived it quickly became outdated. Same with sync you have to have it where they want it and it’s only sync … Me personally I want one-way sink data goes on the NAS … You can delete it off the phone or computer and that won’t transfer over…. Have files updated across locations each time there is a change to efficiently keep all stakeholders on the same page. Have to admit, I’m way in above my head on this and have been dragging my feet for nearly two years now. I bought a DS1823xs+ because my DS1815+ no longer works so that I can continue to use their disks directly.
