Up to 24TB across a four, disk RAID storage array, 1080p video transcoding in hardware, Whisper quiet fans
No HDMI port for direct TV connection, Lack of physical disk security, No quick copy button, SD Card slot or eSATA ports
A media centre solution first and a general purpose NAS appliance second, the DS415play is the ideal compromise for buyers wanting to stream music and HD video over the LAN and who also need the storage space that a four-bay NAS can provide. Bigger and f...
Smart, minimalist design, Smooth, well synchronised transcoding, Intuive setup and stylish UI
Much faster four bay rivals, Slight price premium
The Synology DS415play is an impressive hybrid device. It has the looks and capacity of the mighty DS414, but in reality is actually a four-bay version of the media-focused DS214play. As such it does a fine job transcoding media files on the fly. However,...

Good performance, Synology DSM5 software, Toolfree drive bays, Decent array of software, Two USB 3.0 ports, Quiet operation
High price, No digital display, Both USB 3.0 are at the rear, No HDMI.
During my testing I could clearly hear the Synology DS415play working, however it was resting on the test bench next to me whereas most NAS are parked on a shelf out of the way. The two cooling fans are very quiet, the four WD Red drives are near-silent a...
Looking first at the build quality and design of the Synology DS415play we have a unit which immediately impresses. It has a solid chassis which will blend in nicely in most environments while still offering that gloss front panel to add a bit of style. T...
Synology's RRP for the DS415play is £372 and at that price or the inevitably lower real shop prices the company should have a winner on its hands. The competing QNAP TS-469L is faster and has better specifications but is over £100 more expensive. When you...

On-the-fly hardware media transcoding for mobile devices, Fast read and write speeds, Sleek black design and tool-free setup, On of the most intuitive user interfaces on the market
SD card reader has been dropped from the DS214Play's specification, Long term running cost is slightly higher than average for a 4-bay SOHO NAS, No direct media playback option,
PricingSince its launch, the DS214Play's £247 price tag has barely shifted and whilst its price does push it towards the premium end of the market, the cost is very justifiable thanks to its transcoding capabilities and strong levels of performance across...

Abstract: 소규모로 서버를 구동하거나 간편하게 데이터를 저장할 수 있는 클라우드 등을 사용자 임의대로 만들고 싶을 경우 NAS를 활용하는 것이 일반적이다. 최신 모델들의 경우 저장된 고화질 동영상 등의 멀티미디어 데이터를 어디서나 즐길 수 있는 멀티미디어 서버 기능까지 지원되어 여러 가지 용도로 NAS를 사용하고 있다.NAS 는 설치가 무척 간편할 뿐만 아니라 직관적인 인터페이스를 지원해 네트워크 전문가가 아니더라도 편하게 셋팅해 사용할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 설치...
발달하는 IT기술에 의해 네트워크 속도는 점점 빨라지고 있다. LTE-A를 넘어선 스마트폰과 802.11ac를 통해 강해진 공유기는 점점 더 많은 것을 할 수 있게 되었다. 여기에 발맞춰 NAS 역시 강력한 기능을 추가하며 우리 생활속에 필수 제품으로 자리잡으려고 한다. 특히 모바일 기기와 연동해서 쓸 수 있는 개인용 클라우드로서 NAS는 이제 일반 사용자에게도 관심의 대상이 되고 있다.시놀로지 DS415play는 특히 멀티미디어 동영상을 많이 이용하고...
