About this product
The Synology DS423 is a 4-bay DiskStation NAS that includes two Seagate IronWolf 8TB HDDs, though the listed storage capacity is 2GB. It functions as an external drive with an Ethernet interface for network connectivity. The unit is designed to support HDDs, offering a versatile platform for data storage and management. Its black color and model DS423 designate it as part of Synology's DiskStation series.
Our take
This Synology DS423 NAS, equipped with two Seagate IronWolf 8TB HDDs, offers a good start for network storage. The 4-bay design means there's room to grow beyond the initial two drives, which is a definite plus. The 'Clean SMART' status implies health and reliability for the included drives. However, there appears to be a discrepancy in the listed storage capacity, showing as '2 GB' instead of the expected 16TB from the two 8TB drives. This is an external drive with an Ethernet interface, making it suitable for a home or small office network. It’s a solid platform from Synology, but clarify the total capacity.
