It was time to upgrade from a DS1515+ (5 x 4TB, RAID-6). Ended up with this DS1621+ that just came on the market. I had considered the 8 bay DS1819+ and then saw that the DS1821+ would probably be what I want but a bit pricier and not shipping yet. Then I saw the DS1621+ and 14TB drives on sale and determined this product will hit all my needs for the next five years. I've been running it for about a week after a week of drive testing and configuring. Setup was straightforward--the DSM 6.2 is what is current, and runs on the DS1515+. I used the Synology "Migration Assistant" package to move all the files over in about 30 hours, with only a couple of small windows of a few minutes where the services were disabled. I didn't even know about this program, but it worked ... MoreIt was time to upgrade from a DS1515+ (5 x 4TB, RAID-6). Ended up with this DS1621+ that just came on the market.

I used the Synology "Migration Assistant" package to move all the files over in about 30 hours, with only a couple of small windows of a few minutes where the services were disabled. I didn't even know about this program, but it worked really well. I had been using Hyper Backup and was going to use that to restore. Speaking of backups, I moved an external USB drive that stores Hyper Backups to the new NAS; it picked up incrementals right where the old one left off. And one volume holds macOS Time Machine images for three computers and the Macs all started backing up to the new NAS where they left off. The 10GbE ethernet is a massive upgrade for a modest cost (E10G18-T1). I'm getting 650-700 MB/s read and write sustained from six 7200 RPM Seagate Exos 14TB X14 drives (AFS/SMB, Btrfs, disabled Data Integrity Protection, 4K sectors) and slightly less with Integrity turned on. The NAS 10GbE interface connects through Cat7 w/o switch directly to an iMac Pro and another cable connects the 1GbE interface to the main LAN switch. My experience with the older Synology DS1515+ was pretty good so now I'm a repeat buyer. I had a power supply issue but was able to get a replacement under warranty immediately. Software upgrades always worked. I had to replace several 7200 RPM drives with 5400s and the RAID-6 rebuilds never left me without service. SMB was slower than AFP on the 1515+ but almost at parity on the 1621+. I considered getting an expansion unit but wanted higher bandwidth so I decided it would be better to go for 10GbE instead of attempting to do 4x 1GbE link aggregation and buy a new NAS. Mostly I am using the NAS for large video files and some backups and the high speed is going to change my workflow, holding the big files and editing directly off the NAS. But the DSM software also provides a ton of other goodies: small server capabilities like DNS, email, Synology apps, surveillance recording. Small things like UPS auto-shutdown support was nice too. I haven't measured/compared things like IOPS performance, but will probably spend a bit more time considering encryption, adding RAM, and adding NVMe for a speed boost.

My most recent purchase to supplement a Netgear ReadyNAS was a QNAP. Yuck. I just can't like it. I'm an IT professional, but the QNAP is overly complicated for a residential application. The Synology is easy to configure and use like the ReadyNAS. The complications come in setting up volumes and shares. Way easy and intuitive on Synology. It's quiet, it runs reasonably cool, and functions very well. I only have one gripe: the expense of the 8 camera license for the built-in NVR functionality. You get two cams free, but have to pay close to $400 for 8 more. In this day and age?!? Really? This seems like being about opportunistic profiteering and not ROI on engineering investment (since they have all the app-related modules in the NAS already).

I have been using Synology NAS's for many years and have never had one fail. I only upgrade them when my expanding needs make the old ones too gronky. I'm worried about their recent moves to lock their hardware to their own accessories. See notes on DRAM, above. More concerning was that I got some 18 TB WD Red Pro and 10 TB WD Purple drives. These are both mainstream NAS drives and have been around for a while. Neither are officially supported by Synology. That's just not acceptable. By the way, these drives work perfectly when installed in the DS1621+. (This being slow to certify new drives may possibly have something to do with the fact that they have recently launched their own brand of hard drives.)
This review addresses ONLY the Synology DS1621+ NAS. The Western Digital HDDs are commodities, and are excluded from this review.I didn't do enough homework before buying a Synology product. I've now learned my lesson - the hard way. I initially set this unit up for my Time Machine backup source. It may work OK for that - I'm at least able to make backups; but I've not had make a restoration yet - the true test of a backup.The source of my dissatisfaction with Synology, and the reason for this very negative review is due to Synology's refusal to publish any documentation, or provide technical support for the very basic, fundamental use of this device as a Network-Attached-Storage (NAS) device - providing SMB, file-sharing between Mac, Linux & Windows hosts, and ... MoreThis review addresses ONLY the Synology DS1621+ NAS.

It may work OK for that - I'm at least able to make backups; but I've not had make a restoration yet - the true test of a backup.The source of my dissatisfaction with Synology, and the reason for this very negative review is due to Synology's refusal to publish any documentation, or provide technical support for the very basic, fundamental use of this device as a Network-Attached-Storage (NAS) device - providing SMB, file-sharing between Mac, Linux & Windows hosts, and as a destination device for backups using the ubiquitous 'rsync' protocols.I imagine that many who read this review will discount it heavily... Oh no - that's just not possible; a company of Synology's size surely provides documentation and technical support. If you feel that way, and you're skeptical of my claim (and you should be skeptical of most things today), please check this out for yourself. It's easy enough to do - just ask them - ask Synology if they provide any documentation or technical support for customers who use their product as an SMB file server - or for customers who use Synology as an 'rsync' destination. Parse their response carefully.For what it's worth, I put up with 2 weeks of mealy-mouthed excuses, avoidance and useless suggestions from Synology's offshore tech support BEFORE they finally admitted that: 1) no support, and 2) no documentation would be available from Synology. They've apparently been trained by their corporate bosses to push customers away from SMB & rsync - which are free and open-sourced - in favor of Synology's in-built, proprietary software solutions. Failing that, they try to avoid responsibility with the very lame excuse that they do not support third-party software for access to Synology's NAS services (rsync & SMB). But as I explained to them, I don't need your help with my software; all I need from you is documentation on the SMB & rsync interfaces that you claim and advertise your product provides! The SMB and rsync protocols are covered by industry standards, but it's clear and obvious that Synology's implementation does not conform to these standards.In the end, Synology tech support flatly refused to provide any technical support or documentation on their non-standard interface. FWIW, I've made a screenshot of the applicable part of their response.But again - I encourage skepticism. There is no reason for you to take my word on this; please check it out for yourself - but DO check it out!
I bought the 1621+ as an upgrade from a previous 4 bay Synology NAS for my photography media storage and editing. My goal was to have more/faster storage and transfer speeds and use the older unit as a backup storage on Synology's hyperbackup. I also purchased the 10GbE card, memory, and 2 NVMe cards to enhance the units capabilities. This unit is solid and lightning fast. This unit survived a 10 hr power failure in my home office this week. I love all the capabilities and software options contained in Synology - even for this non-technical person.
Pros:- Stable and reliable. You can leave this device running 24/7 for months and it's very unlikely to fail.- Easy to use. The web GUI is simple and intuitive and quick to learn. I particularly like the file browser app, the best I've seen in a web browser.- Secure. Synology does a good job of keeping their products up to date and secure. You can further secure this device with 2FA (two factor authentication).Cons:- Underpowered hardware. The CPU is about on par with Intel CPUs from 10 years ago.- 4GB RAM only. You'll have to pay extra to upgrade.- Gigabit Ethernet ports only. You'll have to pay extra to upgrade.- Cheap plastic HDD trays with fragile moving parts that will break easily if mishandled.- Turning on compression greatly reduces ... MorePros:- Stable and reliable.

I'm barely getting 20-30MB/s transfer speeds with compression enabled.- Very overpriced, everything considered.- The only compatible 18TB drives are Synology branded. How convenient.In summary, it's a good and reliable NAS, but the hardware is very underwhelming for the price.
About a month ago I purchased this unit new to benefit of the black friday deal they had.When it arrived - the disk trays were missing, but I assumed those were a separate purchase.I wasn't aware it was supposed to come with the 6 disk trays - and only discovered this about a month later.i could of course return the unit and ask for a replacement or refund as it's still within the return period, but reading through the fine print of the bh return policy it looks like customer has to pay for shipping, which would make it tough as shipping a heavy unit is not cheap.So I am stuck in this tricky situation.Great product - but really inconvenient to be missing the disk trays as it looks unattractive and makes it scary to move without first powering off the unit.
sinology is a nice grate unit to have I been a sinology userfor 8 years and I enjoy this Product this is good unit to have if you arelooking to have a home office or business that have a network room that want tohave a network storage server to host your data on, I can't not say enough how gratethis unit Like I said I been using sinology products for years and they have a grate customservice if there is a problem I highly recommend this kind of a system toanyone to have. As a home use and a network, IT manager for a business I have deployedin a lot of business and that are that easy to setup and use. So, I recommend aGrete unit to have hands down without any doubt the best system to have.
