Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- AMD Ryzen R1600 dual-core processor delivers strong performance for a 2-bay NAS, handling multiple concurrent tasks smoothly
- ECC RAM helps protect against memory errors, improving data integrity for long-term storage
- Includes two WD Red Plus drives purpose-built for NAS workloads, saving the hassle of sourcing compatible drives
- Expandable via DX517 expansion unit and M.2 NVMe cache slots as storage needs grow
- Synology DSM software ecosystem offers extensive apps for backup, file sync, surveillance, and virtualization
👎 Cons
- Ships with only 2GB of RAM, which may need upgrading for heavier workloads like virtual machines or Docker containers
- Two-bay design limits maximum raw internal storage compared to four-bay or larger NAS units
- Lacks built-in 10GbE networking — the dual 1GbE ports may bottleneck large file transfers for power users
- Expansion unit and RAM upgrades add significant additional cost beyond the base bundle price
Frequently Asked Questions
What drives are included in this bundle?
This bundle comes with two 6TB WD Red Plus hard drives pre-selected for NAS use, providing 12TB of raw storage capacity.
Can I expand the storage beyond the two included drive bays?
The DS723+ supports a Synology DX517 expansion unit, adding up to five additional drive bays. It also features an M.2 NVMe slot for SSD caching to boost performance.
How much RAM does this unit ship with, and is it upgradable?
It ships with 2GB of DDR4 ECC RAM. The DS723+ supports RAM upgrades up to 32GB for more demanding workloads like virtual machines or heavy multi-user access.
What operating system does this NAS run?
It runs Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM), a Linux-based operating system with a web-based interface for managing storage, backups, file sharing, surveillance, and more.
Can I set up redundancy with just two drives?
Yes. With two drives you can configure a RAID 1 (mirrored) array using Synology Hybrid RAID or standard RAID, which mirrors your data across both drives for redundancy at the cost of halving usable capacity to 6TB.
