What reviewers say about the Synology DiskStation DS923+
Two whitelisted testers reviewed the DS923+: StorageReview (full lab benchmarks) and TechRadar (hands-on use, no published measurements). Both praise the DSM software, easy setup, and drive/expansion flexibility. StorageReview measured ~1.16 GB/s sequential SMB reads but pans the Synology-only NVMe pools (capped at 480GB) and argues 10GbE should be onboard; TechRadar flags high pricing plus no HDMI and no Wi-Fi.

DSM and the deep application library continue to be the best Synology benefits.
We love the step forward from Synology here but are very disappointed in the execution.
This feature however is extremely limited as it only supports Synology NVMe drives, which are capped at 480GB at this time.
The Synology DS923+ is one of the best NAS devices around today, featuring a wonderful interface making NAS storage, setup, and operation a breeze.
