        The NAS server and its two hard disks are up and running in no time.

        Adding the extra memory card suggested proved useful for good responsiveness. The extra disk space ordered for my PC is always useful when taking photos for my German Shepherd kennel.

        very good product

        Very easy to use and works very well on our network. I'm withdrawing one star because it's quite noisy and shouldn't be used in a living room.

        Very good NAS

        The NAS is perfect. I previously had a DS213j which was not responsive, especially with the Synology OS. With this one, it's nothing like that. I also like the people detection in Synology Photos. The OS is still top notch. And the shipping from LDLC is very fast and the NAS was very well packed. Thank you for everything.

        Robust and quiet 2-bay Nas

        I have had this NAS for a few weeks now.
        I am completely satisfied with it.
        Easy to install and configure.
        It is quiet.
        You should avoid putting it in a bedroom as the slight noise of the fan can be disturbing.
        I could easily install my 2 WD RED 3TB drives and create a RAID 1.
        Remote access is operational as well as power failure tolerance via my UPS.
        I am warned of a power failure and can turn off the NAS when I am at work.

        Great. Nothing to say.

        Perfect for a media and backup server

        I used to use my Raspberry Pi 4 (4Gb) with OpenMediaVault as a media server. But there was a big drawback: no transcoding and no RAID (possible to do, but not very nice). So I bought this DS220+ with two 6Tb WD Red Plus hard drives.
        It's all good: easy to install and use, fast and versatile. The additional 4GB of RAM from Crucial (CT4G4SFS8266) gives it a boost!
        Now we can even back up our data on this NAS.
        For more security, I activated, among other things, the Firewall (not the OpenOffice one :D). I blocked all incoming connections and only allowed those from my private network.

        A Must Have in Personal NAS Technology

        I turned my old Synology NAS into a backup NAS. The DS220+ became my new NAS, for Personal Cloud (used by 4 people), storing our photos and videos.
        The fears about the operation of transferring the old one to the new one evaporated very quickly after using the Synology application dedicated to this. It's a real pleasure to work with.
        The service and delivery from LDLC is always top notch!

        DS 220

        The equipment is as I expected. Very quiet with its 2 WD RED PRO 2TB disks, especially when it is on the desk near you.
        Perfect for backups.
        Remains to be seen in time.

        Great for sharing storage and photos

        I am currently using it as a photo storage server to store, sort and share all the photos I have had for years.
        I've also set up user accounts for family members outside the home and this allows us to share all our photos of events together. It's great, a home cloud.

        Good solution for managing family photos and documents

        I am very satisfied with my Synology: very easy to install, the system encourages me to organise my data as well as possible. I mainly use drive and photos.

        A very good NAS!

        The Synology DS220+ NAS was installed a few weeks ago. The installation was done without any problems in version 7 of the DSM system. I chose the suggested settings, no problem.
        With two identical disks (4TB) the RAID mode is activated.
        The operation is very fast, also in writing, much more than the old DS115 whose 2TB disk was almost full.
        An excellent product, delivered without a hitch to the Paris Beaugrenelle shop where the welcome is always excellent too!

        Very pleased

        I'm new to NAS.
        I wanted a powerful one so as not to be limited in my future needs.
        I must say that for the moment this product corresponds well to my expectations.

        No problem

        Used for personal sharing with backup at Syno (C2)
        I also use it to synchronize my contacts between my PC and my phone.
        Goodbye Google spying ;)

        Great NAS! I recommend

        NAS with plenty of RAM to really use it as a media centre and cloud. Well thought out interface (looking forward to DSM 7). Very advanced software configuration. The SYNOLOGY environment is really great.
        Aesthetically the NAS is nice and its connections are numerous. A real asset.
        Only small regret: the auto-backup on iOS does not work (Synology Moments).

        Top for first-time buyers but beware of upgrades

        I used to have a DS212j (so almost 10 years old). I liked it, but the interface was very slow. Here, no more interface speed problems, as long as it lasts!
        The problem is that it is not possible to transfer the disk(s) from the Synology NAS "j" range to a "+", nor to use the data migration tools! So even if I recommend changing the disk at the same time as the NAS, it's not always easy to do both at the same time.
        In short, when migrating from an old Synology NAS to a new one, be sure to study the documentation for setting up the new one, because reconfiguring everything can be tedious.

        As expected

        the + :
        Synology interface with all the options
        Perfect for video storage with multiple sharing (tablet/tv/pc/mobile simultaneously)
        The "copy" button works well
        Easy to set up
        the - :
        coupled with a WD RED 12Tb drive, it is a bit noisy when it comes out of standby or when the drive "scratches

        conclusion: very good product with an ease of use that allows even novices to manage their NAS correctly - a little noisy it's a shame

        Performance and ease of use

        I had originally ordered the DS220J model but the functionality was limited (especially regarding application installations via Docker).
        This DS220+ model seems to be much more efficient and faster than the 220J.
        The disks are also better placed and the scratching is more efficient which makes it less noisy than the 220J.
        Thanks to LDLC for immediately taking back the 220J so I could get the 220+ which is more expensive but so much more practical.
        I hesitated for a long time with a QNAP but the OS installed seems to me more cobbled together than the Synology one. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to buy a QNAP or a Synology, but I'm sure it's a good idea to buy a QNAP and not a Synology.

        Responsive and easy-to-use NAS

        I have been using the procedure on the synology website to copy the 2 disks from my old DS231j. It was easy to do. I got an exact copy of the disks from my old NAS including the security certificates and passwords. Great.
        The ssh, ftp, sftp, ftps protocols all work and are responsive, I can see the difference with the DS213j; all video formats play without slowing down on a local network or remotely under DS video (a real plus), deserves its 5 stars.

        A flawless product!

        I've been using this NAS for several months now and I'm very satisfied with it.
        - very fast
        - very reliable
        - relatively easy to use
        - no configuration to do if you move or change network
        - no need to configure your internet box
        - secure access to data even from an external network

        One of my two disks failed after a month, the NAS has already saved my data thanks to the RAID function!

        Synology DiskStation DS220+

        Received quickly.
        Very easy to install the disks
        well-guided start-up
        interface may be a bit easier to understand than the Qnap ones I use at work.
        Does the job well.

        I removed 1 star because of the bad surprise of having to pay a small 5 euros on the synology site to have the support of the most practical format for my USB keys (exfat) lamentable and really petty at this level

        A good Home NAS

        I ordered this naz because my netgear stocking abandoned me after 8 years of good and loyal service.
        I have a synology 4 disk dsx18+.
        I regret that it doesn't have a slot for an M.2 ssd for cache.

        Very good product, but cumbersome synchronisation software

        Very good design quality, relatively easy to set up.
        The DS220+ is also quiet and its initial configuration is very accessible.
        I do have some issues with the sync (only syncs folders but not the files contained). Even if it's probably a bug, it's very annoying to have to search for hours for the solution to our problem (while waiting for an answer from the after sales service).
        For everything else it's a product that does the job, and the extra cost compared to an equivalent PC can be justified by the software suite and the simplicity of setting it up (when the synchronisation works).
