According to our NAS expert
The Synology DS420j is a NAS without drive for home offices and private use. You can use the NAS to stream media or backup and manage your files. Connect your NAS to your smart TV or computer via DLNA and watch 4K movies right away without having to convert them. Thanks to the extensive file manager, you can search, filter, and cluster all your files in an organized way. In addition, the software keeps multiple versions of your spreadsheets, text files, and other documents. This way, you can always retrace previous changes. And via QuickConnect, you get easy access to the files on your NAS in a web browser.

Speed seems okay, I haven't run into any limits yet. Do not expect miracles, it is a model at the bottom of the segment. Too bad there are only USB ports on the back. This is not practical if you want to backup a USB stick or SD card. Unfortunately, there is no plugin to backup all your photos from, for example, Google photo.

Large NAS for 4 drives. Too bad you can't transfer them directly from another NAS/Server. Setting up folders/disks/users takes some practice, but once you get the hang of it, it's no problem.
