It's been a long wait, but the successor to Synology's ageing DS920+ four-bay desktop NAS is finally here. Targeting the same home office and small business sectors, the DS923+ is Synology's first 2023 model and offers a good storage package at an affordable price.
It bears many physical similarities to its predecessor, with the main changes being in the processing department. Intel gets the elbow in favour of a dual-core 2.6GHz AMD Ryzen R1600, and memory also sees big improvements: the base 4GB of DDR4 can be expanded to 32GB, four times that of the DS920+.
A peek at the rear reveals a pair of gigabit ports, and 10-gigabit (10GbE) is now possible as the small bay alongside accepts Synology's optional E10G22-T1-Mini card, which also supports multi-gigabit speeds. Two USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports are present and the single eSATA port can be used to connect Synology's five-bay DX517 expansion unit - hence the "9" in its model name.
