QNAP TS-464 or the Synology DS920+ NAS Drive - Which Should You Buy? nascompares.co...
Choosing Between the Synology DS920+ and QNAP TS-464 NAS is more than just about how you are spending your money at checkout! Making the move away from 3rd public cloud storage can be a big, BIG decision for some users. The ‘freemium’ and low cost monthly subscription to the likes of Google Drive and DropBox seems like a drop in the ocean, right up until you realise that over the years you have spent hundreds of pounds and you face the fact that you are going to need to consider moving that data onto something more long term and ‘in house’. For many users, this is their first encounter with two of the bigger brands in the world of NAS, Synology and QNAP and although at a glance they seem t provide the same kind of solution, even a brief second glance reveals that these two brands have very, very different ideas of where you should be spending your money. Synology is the sleek, apple-esc presented solution that promises a smooth and uncomplex experience, with an arguably more rigid and fixed architecture. Whereas QNAP is the more customizable and flexible in its hardware and software, but has a slightly higher learning curve and requires more time to configure perfectly. Both brands provide an excellent range of NAS solutions with each of the solutions in today’s comparison being quite similar in price, but what you are getting for your money, the range of software included, the scope of hardware that is available and how they translate to upgradable and scalability is incredibly different! So, today we are going to compare the Synology DS920+ NAS released in 2020 (but still a firm favourite now) against the newly released QNAP TS-464 NAS.

If anyone got hung up on the eight gigabyte ram limit on the older model, I have the six bay, and I've been running the 16 gigabytes of ram that I had in a Gigabyte Aero 15s for a long time. I had no issues with it.

[@TonySanchez]

Which model do you have?

[@1mannlan]

The 453D runs fine with more than 8 Gigabytes of memory. Im running with twelve (8+4) with no issues!

[@routledgepaul]

Thanks

[@serafimw786]

Thank you man, great reviews!

[@volkurojoga8754]

QNAP TS-464-8G VS TS-453D 4G . still win the 453D with 4G? THANKS

[@HiltonT69]

Looks like it would be a good upgrade if we could source any qnap units here in 'Srayamate.

[@GeorgeNicola]

So what would be preferable for a first-time user? Qnap or Synology?

[@zeeanemone6482]

syn for noob

[@Carittech]

Great breakdown!

[@silver33]

Can the TS-435D play H.265?

[@blcjck8121]

I'm continually amazed by how much bang-for-buck you get with QNAP. I mean hardware-wise they simply leave the competition in the dust. If they up their software to include some sort of SHR equivalent, the choice to leave Synology behind would be a no-brainer IMHO.

[@blcjck8121]

@@QNAPUK Please clarify. I realize that ZFS could be considered superior to BTRFS. But I'm confused as to how this relates to SHR?

[@hermask815]

@@blcjck8121 I’d like to know, too.

[@Captain_Hindsight]

Is the 464 actually available in "the west"? I gave up and got the 453d and i'm happy with it. Too much fomo ptsd from the graphics cards to "wait for the better one" that eventually gets delayed or worse

[@deftdawg]

It's starting to show up in Canadian distributor websites with prices of around $770 CAD (pre-order/backorder) , I'm seriously considering it to replace my ancient 639pro

[@dereksnider7148]

@@deftdawg which Canadian distributors have the TS-464 for $770?

[@deftdawg]

@@dereksnider7148 "PC-Canada", I haven't watched to see if they actually got any stock though

[@dereksnider7148]

@@deftdawg ahh, cool. I called QNAP Canada and they are saying that stock should be arriving in Canada within the next week or so. Most retailers have not yet updated their systems to have this product, but should hopefully do that soon. The MSRP seems to be pretty much the same as the TS-453D, so expect the TS-453D prices to drop.

that there on the left a long boi

[@Lensman3333]

Looks as if Synology is getting its as kicked.
