Synology DiskStation DS418Play

The Synology DiskStation DS418Play ‘s file-transfer performance was very good in our testing, but its two-bay sibling, the Synology DS718+, was a bit faster and remains our Editors’ Choice. That said, if you require the extra storage capabilities that you get with a four-bay NAS, you can’t go wrong with the Synology DiskStation DS418Play.
