I believe the build quality or the design of QNAP seems more professional (with many metal parts, LCD display and hot swapping drive). However, being a QNAP user, I haven't used a Synology before, so this might be a little biased.

For the software side, QNAP is also very well build.  I have one experience that my TS-419P showed a red light on one of the disk. So what I did was pop-out the defective disk and then put in a new one. The NAS rebuilt accordingly...and here came the fun part, I unplugged the power cord by mistake, and then plugged in the power again.  The NAS continued to rebuilt without a hitch...very bit of my data was there!

That's the reason why I would stick to QNAP.  Just my 2 cents.

不過 ds212裝HD要拆殼+上螺絲,
hotswap function似乎廢了武功

212同212j CPU差400MHz,RAM一樣大少,SMB速度已經有明顯分別。

SYNOLOGY既USB 3.0快D好D。但係如果你既external harddisk將會用ntfs format既話就唔好用s記啦,因為佢先天既ntfs driver有問題(可見將來都改唔到,因為要S記俾錢買LICENSE),相同情況下比QNAP慢近半。

synology 的usb 3.0 係無用的,讀ntfs 勁慢,得物無所用
