About this product
The Synology DiskStation DS620slim is a compact 6-bay NAS enclosure designed for 2.5-inch SATA drives. This network-attached storage device is optimized for smaller form factor SSDs or HDDs, making it ideal for quiet operation and reduced physical footprint. It supports RAID 5 configurations, providing a balance of data redundancy and performance. As an enclosure, it does not include drives, allowing users to select their preferred storage media.
Our take
If you're in the market for a compact NAS that can handle 2.5-inch drives, the Synology DS620slim is a compelling option. The 6-bay design is impressive for its small size, and the support for RAID 5 is a big plus for data integrity. The main thing to remember is that this is an enclosure only, so you'll need to factor in the cost of six 2.5-inch SATA drives or SSDs. The price of $499.99 for just the enclosure is on the higher side, but Synology's software ecosystem is generally robust. This unit is perfect for those who prioritize a quiet, space-saving solution with SSD capabilities.
