Synology DS925+ 4-Bay Desktop NAS Bundle with 40TB Drives

The Synology DS925+ bundle takes much of the guesswork out of setting up network storage by arriving with four 10TB hard drives already accounted for, adding up to 40TB of raw capacity. Positioned as the successor to the DS923+, this four-bay desktop unit is aimed at households and small offices that want a central home for files, photos, and backups without sourcing drives separately. It leans on Synology's DSM software ecosystem, which folds in file and photo management, data protection, virtualization, and monitoring tools under one interface.

On the hardware side, the DS925+ pairs dual 2.5GbE ports with a quoted throughput of up to 522/565 MB/s sequential read and write, a step beyond the gigabit networking common at this tier. The two ports also open the door to link aggregation or failover for added redundancy. Storage needs rarely stand still, and the DS925+ answers that with support for the DX525 expansion unit, stretching the system to nine bays and as much as 180TB. Practical ownership details round out the picture: a three-year limited hardware warranty that extends to five years in select markets, and, as of DSM 7.3, compatibility with third-party drives alongside Synology's own.
