No 2.5GbE built in, Upgrades cost extra, No hardware transcoding
It's not perfect, but for the right business looking for fast yet affordable mid-range data handling, the DS1621+ has a lot to offer. It's easy to bemoan the lack of 2.5GbE but the PCIe slot means 10GbE is a reasonably priced upgrade for those who truly n...

RAM upgrade to the Synology DiskStation DS1621+ is inevitable if you are going to use it beyond the role of a NAS for storage. Going for Synology 8GB DDR4 ECC Unbuffered SODIMM (D4ES01-8G) is a more expensive investment but it's not much compared to the v...
