Once I removed the DS420j NAS drive and it’s protective packaging, we find the NAS unit itself, along with some standard accessories to assist you in setting up the device for the first time. This is not my first time unboxing a Synology DiskStation NAS for review, and this is fairly standard packaging for the brand. That said, the packaging of the Synology DS420j NAS is quite competent, providing a good level of transit protection and compartmentalized components inside. That said, they do give all the information you need on the DS420j NAS, providing details on the hardware, software, dimensions and warranty related to this new NAS drive on two stickers found on the branded brown box. It’s a fair attitude in 2020, as the bulk of people purchasing a new Desktop NAS drive will do so at online retailers and the draw of a well designed retail packaging will be largely unnecessary. Synology has always had a ‘less is more’ attitude to product packaging in their Diskstation NAS series. □□The chassis design is still a little underwhelming □□That 1GB Memory hobbles this CPU significantly on things like 4K and BTRFS Let’s take a closer look and review the DS420j Synology NAS drive. Featuring a familiar CPU, chassis and hardware options, it is worth seeing if this new DS420j NAS is a legitimately valid release or just the ‘same old, same old’ thing with a lick of paint.

Synology has been a long featured brand in the arena of NAS storage in the last 10 years+ and in that time have arrived with a diverse range of solutions to suit different deployment needs and budgets. However, that still means you need to buy a NAS drive to store all that lovely data and with so many brands on the market, as well as a scaling price to choose from, it can be fantastically intimidating to buy your first NAS server. May users take this opportunity to invest in a reasonable network-attached storage (NAS) solution, to enable easy, swift and intuative backups of all their data over the network/internet. Sure, you can slot a fair bit on your PC/Mac hard drive, but eventually, space starts to become non-existent. Is the New Budget DS420j NAS from Synology Worth Your Data?įinding a home for all of your most important data in 2020 is no small task.
