Attractively minimal design, Runs fairly quiet, Easy-to-understand UI, Very good transfer-rate performance, Packed with features
UI can feel sluggish at times, Drive-swapping requires tools, Only USB 2.0 ports, No hardware video transcoding
This two-bay entry-level NAS box is packed with features and delivers very competitive transfer rates. If you can deal with the UI's responsiveness and a DIY-minded chassis, it's a fine value whether bought bare or with drives installed. Read More…...
The Synology DS214SE looks to be a solid build so far. We are a little concerned about the CPU speed and memory in the system simply because we are used to much more powerful devices. With the expected workload a home based NAS should generate these two i...
Ethernet cable included, Low price, DSM 5.0, Lots of packages to install
No 2.5″ drive holder included, Opening/loading files/programs a bit slow (Slow CPU), I do not recommend to use the NAS simultaneously with multiple users. (You will lose a lot of performance because of the slow CPU), Final Words, The Synology DS214se i
The Synology DS214se is a great entry level NAS, for people who want a NAS for a low price, have lots of options and is easy to use. Although the CPU is a bit slow to do heavy multitasking or heavy file transfers, you can not really complain because it i...
Abstract: We would like to thank Synology for supplying the review sample. Contrary to popular belief, NAS boxes don't have to be expensive to be fully featured and functional, especially since most models run the same operating system as their high-end siblings. ...
The Synology Disk Station DS214se has a robust operating system and a vast amount of applications to offer anything you'd need. The server is also fast, and it's very affordable
The server doesn't have enough power to handle multiple heavy tasks at the same time, and it doesn't support USB 3.0. Servicing the internal drive requires opening the its chassis
The budget-minded Synology Disk Station DS214se is an excellent choice for home with casual backup, media-streaming, and data-sharing needs....
Unbeatable price, Easy to set up, Transfer speeds exceeds Synology's performance figures
Entry CPU and RAM limits DS214se to light usage profiles
The DS214se is definitely a budget-friendly option, costing approximately $50 less than the DS213j. That reduction in price comes with a loss in performance specifications with its 256MB of RAM and 800MHz single core processor versus the 512MB and 1.2...
Very aggressive price (for Synology), Runs full suite of DSM 4.3 applications, Mobile Apps for iOS and Android, iSCSI target support
No USB 3.0 ports, 2.5" drives require optional ($) adapter, Drives not hot swappable
RAID 1 NASes are for folks who want a bit more insurance against inevitable drive failure. With a single bay NAS, you'll be without your data until you replace the drive and restore from your backup. But with RAID 1, you can keep on going while the volume...

Velprøvd og funksjonsfylt OS, Grei ytelse prisen tatt i betraktning
Ingen USB 3.0
Synology DiskStation DS214se har den samme stilen og utseende vi kjenner fra selskapets små NAS-er i j-serien – og er således ikke akkurat noen designprisvinner. Denne tobrønneren i hvit plast har plass til to harddisker på opp til 5 TB hver, som jo også ...
God filytelse. Pris. Funksjonalitet. Stillegående (diskavhengig). Brukervennlig programvare.
Ingen spesielle.
Synology DS214se kan for mange være et utmerket valg. Selv om slike NAS-er i dag byr på et hav av muligheter gjennom programvaren, vil det for mange være primært lagring i lokalnettverket som er det viktige. I hjemmesammenheng er det også sjeldent at ...
Designet, Synology holder de samme flotte kabinetter til alle deres modeller, det er kun det indre der er skiftet ud, Softwaren er den samme, Igen er vi kørende på Synology's lækre og meget brugervenlige software. Vi har testet denne model med DSM 5.0 bet
Kabinettet, Som resten af deres bokse er de meget skrøbelige, overfor ridser og lignende, The case, As the rest of their cases, this is very fragile to scratches and the like.
Trods dette er den mindste i klassen, klare den sig super godt. Jeg er yderst tilfreds med den ydelse man får ud af en server, til de penge som denne koster. Man får som regel ikke meget for pengene når vi er nede i en prisklasse omkring 1100,- kr, men he...
