Media Product Reviews 2011

Techware Labs 11/2011

Techware Labs Gives DS712+ Awesome Hardware Stamp

"I have no complaints about the DS712+ other than the price tag could be lower, but on the same scale you are buying what amount to a full server. If you want expandability you can always add the DX510 at a hefty $500 price tag but it expands your storage by a significant amount."

NeoWin 11/2011

DS212 and DSM Receive 9/10 from NeoWin

"That said, we still really like the Synology DS212 and absolutely love the DSM system. If you want something that "just works," then identify what your storage requirements are and pick the device that best suits your needs. You can't go wrong with either one."

Info World 11/2011

InfoWorld Gives RS3411RPxs 9/10 Rating

"Shops with smaller virtualization deployments will find that the RS3411RPxs has the right blend of redundancy and performance to kick their VMs up a notch without breaking the budget. Others will find that using the RS3411RPxs as a backup target, application server, or general file server provides peace of mind."

SlashGear 10/2011

SlashGear Applauds Versatile DS712+

"6TB is plenty for many home and small business users, however, and on that basis the small footprint of the Synology DiskStation DS712+ and easy usability make it another impressive product from an impressive company."

SmallNetBuilder 10/2011

DS2411+ Put Through Its Paces on SmallNetBuilder

"I guess when you look at it that way, the DS2411+ looks pretty good if you need a lot of storage that can be delivered at about as fast as your Gigabit connection can go."

Gear Diary 09/2011

GearDiary Praises DS211+

"After searching tediously through many forums, sites, and reviews I can say hands down this is one of the best 2 bay storage devices I have ever used. With the start to finish ease of setting it up, configuration, and through a few weeks of use I can wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone looking for a fast and reliable storage or backup solution."

TechSpot 08/2011

DS2411+ Awarded Editors' Choice Award by TechSpot

"As always, we were impressed with the quality of Synology's DiskStation Manager 3.1 software, which is not only powerful, but also very easy to use...for professional photographers, video editors and graphic designers, the DS2411+ is a smart investment."

StorageReview 06/2011

DS411slim Awarded Editor's Choice Award

"So if you happen to be in the market for a NAS but either don't have a ton of available space or are power-conscious, the DiskStation DS411slim is a very nice alternative to what is currently available on the market."

Link

PCMag 02/2011

PCMag Editors' Choice Award - DS1511+

"The true genius of the DS1511+ is that it's simple enough for a novice users, but sophisticated enough to deploy in a mid-sized business. The DS1511+ is a winner." - Samara Lynn, Lead Analyst, Networking, at PCMag.*

Computer Audiophile 02/2011

Computer Audiophile adds DS411slim to CASH List

"The Slim is full of more features than anyone will ever use. One beauty of the DSM 3 operating system is that all of them can be disabled. "Purist" Computer Audiophiles looking for a simple Network Attached Storage unit to serve music files to a Mac, PC, or Linux computer without all the bells and whistles couldn't ask for more."

Link

Home Server land 02/2011

DS211j, DSM 3.0 praised by Home Server Land

"I am truly amazed at how seamless the administrative web interface a.k.a the DiskStation Manager (DSM) performed and multitasked with multiple windows open. For example, I was able to format two hard drives at once and continue on to access other administrative settings without delay."

Link

Make Use Of 01/2011

DSM 3.0 the Highlight for Make Use Of

"Going back to the highlight of the device, DSM provides a simple, one-click solution for just about everything. Need a BT client? Click and you’re set. Need a DLNA media server? Click and you’re set. Need an iTunes server? Yes, just click and you’re set. This is what I love most about the DS411j and all Synology NAS products."

"...the DS411j is a full-featured, brilliant product that’s well worth your money."
