Synology DS212j NAS Review – the new budget class leader

On this page we present some super high resolution images of the product taken with the 24.5MP Nikon D3X camera and 24-70mm ED lens. These will take much longer to open due to the dimensions, especially on slower connections. If you use these pictures on another site or publication, please credit Kitguru.net as the owner/source.

  5. I can’t enter because I live in Germany! this sucks.

    Guess I might have to end up buying one before Christmas 🙁

    (good review)

  6. Great price, PCWorld sell ‘lesser’ makes for more and I doubt if they hit 20mb/s

    thanks for review.

  7. I dont use social networking, but good to see the product in detail. Looks like a very good deal for the price. performance is very good.

  8. What price is their 4 bay system like this? 2 drives is a bit limiting, although with the price they are right now might be a while before I get a NAS. 1TB HD here cost a packet now.

  9. Indeed I got a DS212J since last weekend, the major concern is that the noise level is somewhat high to me, which is clearly audible from 2~3 meters away. It’s not from the installed WD green harddisk but the chassis fan. However, this NAS should be very quiet according to its rating and Kitguru’s review. Thus I was totally confused and guess it’s a sample problem or installation problem.
