Review: Synology to the rescue. - I get everything I need from this server. I primarily use it as an Emby server, but also for Surveillance Station, so my review will be based on those 2 things. For of all, it’s super simple to setup and get to the UI, which is also pretty user friendly. Installing apps is simple and setting up network shares is equally as simple. There’s advanced controls, like user rights, recycle bin functionality and that just scratches the surface, but again I didn’t need to take advantage too much of some of those. The Emby functionality is great and streaming anime from it is flawless. I last used a Mini PC which really struggled with decoding and made the experience terribly slow. I no longer have that issue (thankfully) as the server is pretty speedy - even for larger content. Surveillance Station was just as easy to setup with enough options for what I need. Allows me to backup my recordings instead of having to use Micro SD cards or Eufy’s cloud services, so I’m really pleased with that too. Overall, for the price I paid and the experience I’ve had - I’m thrilled. (Worth noting I bought some sound dampening feet to put it in a cabinet). Review: Good first time NAS product for home use. - excellent quality and easy to instal, my problem was actually setting up the system which is no fault of the product. ## Features - Centralized Data Storage: Consolidate up to 36TB of data, and enjoy 100% data ownership and multi platform access form anywhere - Next-Generation File System: Leverage file self-healing, lightning-fast data snapshots, rapid data cloning. - Secure Sharing and Syncing: Safely access and share files and media from anywhere, and keep clients, colleagues and collaborators on the same page. - Simple Data Protection: Back up your media library or document repository to a variety of destinations. - Versatile Camera Surveillance: protect your premises with flexible monitoring tools. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0C99TX1RM | | Best Sellers Rank | 7,088 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 3 in Network Attached Storage (NAS) Devices | | Box Contents | AC power cord + adapter, Accessory pack, DS223j main unit, Quick Installation Guide, RJ-45 LAN cable | | Brand | Synology | | Brand Name | Synology | | Colour | White | | Compatible Devices | Desktop, Laptop | | Compatible devices | Desktop, Laptop | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 1,225 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Metal | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04711174724765 | | Is Assembly Required | Yes | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 10D x 22.5W x 16.5H centimetres | | Item Weight | 1.58 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Synology | | Manufacturer Part Number | DS223j | | Material | Metal | | Model Number | DS223J | | Mounting Type | Tabletop | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Product Warranty | 2 year manufacturer | | Product dimensions | 10D x 22.5W x 16.5H centimetres | | Size | 0TB | | Storage Volume | 36 TB | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Synology - **Colour:** White - **Material:** Metal - **Product dimensions:** 10D x 22.5W x 16.5H centimetres - **Size:** 0TB ## Images ![DS223J 2 Bay Desktop NAS, White - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41BMNGIf03L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is it inbuild with hard disk or need to buy separately?

This arrived yesterday and was up and running within 20 minutes using the my existing 2 x WD Red 3Tb disks. The DS Finder App was having trouble finalising the install, but going through a web browser worked perfectly. The web interface is easy to use and the Time Machine backup works flawlessly (once set up - see the Synology help site for instructions). ## Frequently Bought Together - Synology DS223j 2-Bay Diskstation NAS (Realtek RTD1619B 4-Core 1.7 GHz 1GB DDR4 Ram 1xRJ-45 1GbE LAN-Port) - Seagate IronWolf 4TB NAS Internal Hard Drive CMR 3.5 Inch SATA 6Gb/s 5400 RPM 64MB Cache for RAID Network Attached Storage Rescue Services (ST4000VNZ06/006) - Western Digital 4TB WD Red Plus NAS Internal Hard Drive HDD - 5400 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, CMR, 256 MB Cache, 3.5" -WD40EFPX --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/537867669-ds223j-2-bay-desktop-nas-white](https://www.desertcart.at/products/537867669-ds223j-2-bay-desktop-nas-white) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-08-31*
