nascompares has a great article covering Plex support across the Synology models:

https://nascompares.com/2021/03/1...1-edition/

Per this - no support for hardware transcoding.

Some other links I've found particularly useful:
CPUs: https://www.synology.com/en-us/kn...y_NAS_have
Max Storage Size: https://www.synology.com/en-globa...limitation
Hybrid RAID calculator: https://www.synology.com/en-us/su...0TB|4%20TB

I've been hunting for a used NAS for the past month and while I'd love to save a few hundred vs new, it seems that the newer NAS' are way better than the yesteryear ones. Anything 4-bays or bigger tends to hold their value quite well on the used market as well - at least in the case of Synology - which I prefer for their hybrid raid.

For a noob like me, after all of my hunting, I've decided on the 920+ just for the simplicity of it all.

Very good price. Unfortunately the price of storage is currently cost prohibitive for me. Good deal for plenty of other people though I'm sure
·
$800 and i don't remember if I seen it on sale for below $720 ever... usually around $750

Btw for all the Plex Pass users, the 2021 model year Synology NASes are Ryzen based, so you might want to consider the 1520 or 920 if your clients don't support direct play for all your media (though those models are sometimes criticized for cheaper build quality and soldered-on RAM).

Super good deal. I just scooped one at retail ($800) from OfficeDepot a month ago with 15% cashback (from a cashback source that may start with an R) and it's been rock solid. Would've saved a few bucks here but no regret on buying it when I did. So much faster than my old DS413. It's not for everyone, but if you're moving a lot of data and can take advantage of the ability to add/use a 10gig line.

Big drives right now are f'n expensive though
Quote from 12danny21 :
How is this NAS for Plex? Maybe 1-2 stream of 4k content.
Transcoding or just delivering content as direct play? It doesn't have any GPU or intel quick sync so it's not as strong of a transcoder compared to the Intel counterparts. If you're just reading media to TVs/game consoles locally, it has moer than enough power.

Planning to plug ethernet cable to TV and mainly stream there (is that considered direct play?) and occasionally wireless on a laptop. Would this be enough? With the new Ryzen cpu, I'm at a loss of performance compared to the intel NAS. Thanks!

No love for the 1821+ 8 bay. That is the one I am looking for. I tried the coupon and apparently it only works on this model.
I tried the same thing lol, was really hoping I could get the $150 off it

Finally! I've been waiting on a NAS deal for months now.
Would have preferred a 4-bay, as I only have 4 drives, but this will do especially if add more drives in the future.
Thanks OP!

Were you able to find a deal on the 920+? I've been looking for months.
