Synology DS209+ Review
Bjorn3D takes a look at the Synology DS209+

Organizing and sharing digital contents have become a big headache for many people because of ever expanding digital contents. Ten years ago, only in a business environment would you find a dedicated data storage setup to share files among different users. For many home users, a simple router or switch seems to do the job just fine to network all the computers in a household to allow direct file transfer between desktop systems.

Fast forward 10 years, and we are in the age where digital files are everywhere due to widespread of broadband network. Digital contents, such as MP3 files, pictures, and multi-media are popping up everywhere with the iPods and digital recorders, and the booming of other download media. The widespread of digital media creates a problem of centralizing data and sharing among different computers even in a common household where it is not unusual to find two or more computers. Compare to 10 years ago, the numbers of files have grown exponentially and the file sizes are getting bigger due to HD contents gaining popularity.

Luckily, as digital age booms, the price for storage devices are dropping and at the same time, what used to be reserved for business and enterprise use has trickled down to a consumer level price tag. NAS, network attached storage, is one of those devices where it can help to alleviate the problem one may face with data storage and sharing.
