In fact, you’d be hard-pressed to tell the difference with both NAS positioned next to each other. The front of the DS223j has five LED indicators and a power button. The two sides have Synology branding and the top and bottom panels are completely bare. Synology DiskStation DS223j. (Source: NM) Side of the Synology DiskStation DS223j. (Source: NM) Rear of the Synology DiskStation DS223j. (Source: NM) I feel the same way about this DS223 hardware-specs; why in Heaven’s Ways you want to neuter a beginners-user due to so-so (ARM) CPU and not all the “toppings” (features) available (of DSM) when that user grows and may expect/want more but not available unless this NAS is replaced with a more powerful version? (rip-and-replace).

If you have been looking at Synology or a more cost-effective, low-price and highly power-efficient NAS drive in 2022/2023, then there is a very good chance that you have been wondering about the release of the DS223j, as the current value series offering of the DS220j has been available now for well over two years and looking a little old now. Well, I am pleased to share that I have been informed that Synology has plans to release the newest entry into their budget/cost-effective tier with this new 2-Bay NAS in the last quarter of 2022 (or possibly the start of 2023). This little snippet of information (alongside mention of other new desktop NAS’, such as the DS223, DS223+, DS723+ and DS923+), details which units are going to form the bulk of the brand’s home-prosumer-SMB diskstation portfolio. The DS2xxj series has always been highly desirable as the entry point for most first-time Synology NAS users and although is a solution that arrives with hardware that could arguably be called ‘economical’, it is worth also remembering that it will almost certainly arrive with support of DSM 7 – so you are going to be looking at an affordably jumping off point into a complete hardware+software solution. Although the details we have on the DS223j are incredibly thin on the ground at the time of writing, this information DOES come from a very trustworthy source that I am sorry to say I cannot share. I am sure this will result in many having doubts about the reliability of this information (I would feel the same), but you are just going to have to trust me on this and/or wait out the rest of 2022 as this all plays out. Let’s discuss the DS223j a little further. You did mention it but where was the reasoning? Why not invest 100.- more. Whats the comparison, pros and cons. Your reasoning is: buy this if your new to NAS, so you can tipeditoe with this one, untill your toes are ready for a better NAS? What? Its not funny, its a long Video and at the end Im not being explained why this one, why not 723+, why not 220? Qnap?If you have been looking at Synology or a more cost-effective, low-price and highly power-efficient NAS drive in 2022/2023, then there is a very good chance that you have been wondering about the release of the DS223, as the current affordable ‘standard series’ offering of the DS218 has been available now for well over FOUR YEARS!

Let’s discuss the DS223 a little further. I am pleased to confirm that the Synology DS223 NAS will definitely arrive with compatibility and support of the 3rd Party HDD/SSD manufacturers (as well as their own HDDs and SSDs of course). The maximum supported capacity is still at 18TB (again, likely in line with their own HAT5300 capping at 18TB at the time of writing), but at least users of this value tier device will not have to be concerned with opting for media outside of their usual brand of choice. Let’s discuss DSM’s supported features and services on the Synology DS223 NAS. What Are the Software Specifications of the Synology DS223 NAS

The RTD1619B is a SoC (system on a chip) developed by Realtek, a Taiwan-based company that specializes in the design of semiconductor solutions for a wide range of applications, including IoT, multimedia, communications, and more. perhaps Synology will come up with 10Gbe optical variant later, again something possible useful for businesses…

The inside of that plactic casing is surprisingly well structured, with a grid framework that maintains quite a rigid feel, despite its plastic material. How much of this framework also possibly dissipate vibration and/or noise might also worth looking into at a later date too. The main SATA storage cage takes up the bulk of the available space, but there is still plenty of space around and behind this for ventilation and active airflow.

Synology today announced the availability of the 2-bay DiskStation DS223, the latest addition to its lineup of essential storage servers dedicated to home and SOHO use. Bellevue, WA: Feb. 8, 2023— Synology today announced the availability of the 2-bay DiskStation, DS223, the latest addition to its lineup of essential storage servers dedicated to home and SOHO use.

The external casing is remarkably well held together (involving removing the rear fan, additional screws and leveraging a couple of internal clips) but removing the plastic casing revealsthe extent of that metal framework. The main controller board is separated from the twin SATA storage bays via a large aluminium panel, only providing a small opening for the PCIe connecting slot for the storage cage and SATA board. Synology Cloud Sync – This allows you to connect and synchronize the data you may have on your 3rd party cloud platform to be accessible on the NAS (as well as allow a 1 way or 2 way sync between NAS and Cloud as needed). A wide variety of Cloud platforms are supported (including the usual Google Drive, DropBox, etc) Btw I have used my 8 X 4TB WD Red for over 8 years over 2 NASes , and they have been working like a charm (including very tolerable noise level). When it comes to choosing a network-attached storage (NAS) device, the Synology 2-bay Value series offers several options, including the DS220j, DS218, DS218play, and DS223. All of these models share similar features, such as a 64-bit processor architecture and compatibility with 3.5” SATA HDDs, 2.5” SATA HDDs, and 2.5” SATA SSDs. However, there are also some key differences between the models that users should be aware of.As mentioned, the DS223 information I have received also highlights a range of other NAS devices arriving in that same 6 months time frame. The DS2xx/DS4xx NAS has always formed one of the lowest hardware/price points of the RAID-enabled systems in the brand’s portfolio (with the lowest available tier being the DS2xxj and DS4xxj systems) and the need for the system to run DSM 7 comfortably (even at this more home-user-focused system) will result in the brand giving this NAS a modest, yet still capable day one hardware. I will say that at the time of writing, I have ZERO idea on the CPU+Memory of the DS223, but with well over a decade of this brand’s approach to these systems, we can make some educated guesses based on the brand’s hardware choices in previous years AND the state of NAS hardware/components that are favoured by the industry in 2022/2023 already. The DS223 will almost certainly not arrive with an x86 processor, instead arriving with an ARM processor (likely ARM v8). So, for the DS223 NAS CPU, I think it will be one of two options (and again, this is an educated guess): Below is the rest of the original article from 18/07/22. What Do We Know About the Synology DS223 NAS Drive? The option to integrate the DS223 with popular cloud storage services, including Google Drive, Dropbox, and Microsoft OneDrive, enables users to sync files to and from the cloud, delivering true data centralization and data ownership. It’s likely that this SoC is targeted at embedded and IoT applications that require some level of real-time processing and AI capabilities, such as smart home devices, cameras, and other similar products.
