Outstanding file server and web hosting server; could be faster - Synology DS209 2100 2TB Disk Station 2-bay SATA NAS Server for Workgroups and Offices Network Storage Server. This is my second Synology. This replaced my four year old DS206. I am very satisfied. Bad news first: (1) Speed: Although I'm glad to report that DS209 is at least twice as fast or as the DS206, it is still no contest to an internal hard drive. I actually hesitated between buying the Synology and building a real Windows server. That being said, I feel the Synology really is fast enough for its intended purpose.
. (2) Hidden Features: Although the very basic setup of Synology DS209 is straightforward and simple, many advanced functions require a tech savvy person to dig out. . (3) Connectivity issues: I used to be plagued by a very annoying problem with Synology. The good news: (1) Performance: This thing works, very reliably. . (2) Web station: The Synology can host up to 30 websites. The website hosted this way may not be fast enough for very busy commercial websites, but for relatively simple personal websites and company-front websites, this is more than good enough.
