According to our NAS expert
The Synology DS1618+ is a NAS for small and medium-sized businesses. Thanks to the 2.1GHz Quad-Core processor and the 4GB of RAM, this network drive can handle several demanding tasks at once. This means you can make a backup of all your important documents, while also recording images from the surveillance cameras in your business. Because you can mount up to 6 hard drives in this NAS, you'll always have sufficient storage space. Thanks to RAID, your files are also safe. Manage the performance of your NAS with the Synology DSM software, and use it to update the firmware, manage your media collection, and install all kinds of extra apps such as Surveillance Station to store images from your IP cameras. Share files from your USB flash drive or external hard drive in your network via one of the 3 USB 3.0 ports.

Already had a synology NAS, so already familiar with DSM, but this one has even more options. The most striking are the two e-sata connections so you can set up a system up to 16 bays, 4 Gbit Ethernet ports with link aggregation and the possibility to expand with either 10Gbit Ethernet port or SSD cache. RAM can also be expanded (standard 4Gb) up to 32 Gb! Handy when you want to set up VMs. Original DDR-4 Ram from synology is shockingly expensive... NAS is therefore also suitable for a (small) office. Furthermore, DSM (Disk Management System) offers all possibilities you can think of, such as spare disks, SSD cache and SHR (Synology Hybrid Eaid), so that disks of different sizes can also be combined in a RAID setup and redundancy. This offers the opportunity to breathe new life into "old" drives and replace smaller drives with larger ones. Additional licenses are required for certain functions, for example if you want to connect more than 2 cameras.
