Anyone know how quiet these are? Do they sleep when not in use? I tried a qnap several years ago, and the thing never would sleep, and I could hear it in the background 24/7. I finally replace it with a cheap WD nas, and it is much quieter, and does seem when I am not accessing it.

The hard drives will be the loudest noise. So yes it'll be loud especially when it's reading or writing files.

You definitely could. With a NAS you're basically paying for the form factor and their software. It would be difficult to fit 5 hotswap drives into a mini-ITX form factor but if you did, XPEnology would do you wonders

I don't mind noise when it is in use. I only access my NAS maybe 5min per day. With the QNAP the drives spun 24/7, which was annoying. I don't have a basement or a good place to stick the NAS, so constant noise become an issue.

I have the same issue you do, which is why I never sleep with a Nas in the same room, particularly because the harddrives make constant drilling sounds but this for the most part this is quiet if you get SSDs.

It depends on the chip, the 920+ (because Intel embeded gfx on CPU) apparently can but not sure about this.

This and for those that know little of setting up a network or other applications that come with it, Synology has good documentation and customer service and will provide their own DNS.

There are many more examples, but yeah, its a good layman's solution.

the DS920+ is decently quiet when its not under load. when it is.. you can hear it but its not loud. synology has been a much better experience over qnap for myself.

I got a 1621+ a year ago for 685. Yea but not with really buttoned up software... and hotswaps. Most of the stuff I run on this thing is Docker anyway but the system is very stable -- very very stable, quiet, and power friendly.
