NAS of the Month -October

NAS of the Month - October - Synology DS918+
Every month our NAS experts choose a specific unit with the intention of informing our customers of the best unit currently on offer. With a diverse range of NAS systems available, we wanted to ease the selection criteria for our customers by providing the front runners of the pack. However, if one does not meet your needs, call us or check again next month! 

October 2017 – NAS of the Month is the Synology DS918+ starting at $599.99

This powerful and scalable 4-bay DS918+ is perfectly designed for small and medium-sized businesses. But if you have a gigantic multimedia collection or just an average IT enthusiast, this NAS has all the cool features you need to keep expanding your collection. 

Watch our NAS of the Month video on our YouTube channel for a quick overview for this month's winner. 

Synology DS918+ Product Information 

For this month we wanted to provide two easy solutions that can satisfy your needs for performance and capacity: The Synology DS918+ 8TB (4 x 2TB) 4-bay NAS Integrated with HGST Ultrastar (Enterprise) and the Synology DS918+ 16TB (4 x 4TB) w/ HGST NAS Drives. Especially if you want to synchronize your files across your devices with advanced security measures for business with no more than 20 staff members. So a perfect tool for legal offices, specialty doctor offices and CPA's. 

This NAS is for sure a high-speed scalable storage server with a powerful built in AES-NI hardware encryption engine. But one of our favorite plus features is how capable this machine is for transcoding up to two channels of 4K videos at the same time. 

 If multimedia is taking up a huge portion of your data storage, then the DS918+ is ideal for sharing and storing all your high definition media content with no doubt. So a perfect if not necessary tool for all successful photographers and cinematographers. Plus its compact size feature with light weight feel is a huge advantage for easy transportation if needed. 

 Always there to help increase productivity is the mail server feature. Use the MailPlus suite to setup a very secure mail server throughout your office. Anyone with access to the NAS can setup this feature and benefit from a more reliable mail experience.  
Don't underestimate this 4-bay NAS. The Synology DS918+ is the solution for many small and medium businesses along with photographers or cinematographers. Why? Perhaps its light-weight compact desktop size with the capability to expand up to 8GB. 

Find out why you should upgrade from the DS916+ if you have one already and why everyone is talking about this new amazing unit from Synology!

Now shipping the eagerly awaited Synology DS918+, originally shown at Computex 2017. The DS918+ is the first 4-bay from Synology that looks and feels like a DS1517+ with one less bay. So for Synology fans...
