Synology DiskStation DS213j 2-Bay NAS Server Review

Over the past four years we have looked at a handful of 4-bay and 2-bay NAS devices from Synology, and they have all managed to make a positive impression on us during those reviews. This review is going to take a look at the fifth Synology product at Bigbruin.com, and the model in question is the DS213j. This is a 2-bay device, like the DS212 reviewed in 2012, but that is about where the similarities end. The “j” at the end of the model number implies that it is a budget friendly model that would be well suited for use in a small office or home setting.

The promotional image above provides a quick look at the white housing of this 2-bay networked attached storage server. As we move through the review we will take a much closer look at all aspects of the device… at Bigbruin
