Introduction

We’ve tested a few Synology products here at XSR over the past couple of years, but they’ve always been big Diskstations with plenty of storage capacity, or the physical space to add a large ammount of your own. Today I’m looking at something a little different. It still has Station in the name, but it won’t be building any “Good robot Us’es“, this one is a USB variant. No storage space of its own, but able to use your network and attached drives as its own personal data bank.

Its not typical Synology, but perhaps that’s what you’re looking for?

NB. If you get the movie reference in there, we can be friends.
