Synology DS216j specifications seems to be too good to be true for such as small unit with prices below $300 in local qoo10 website.

But seems like without HDMI connection to allow 4K transcoding capability.

Network connections 2 x Gigabit Ethernet

Storage: Up to 2 x 8TB hard disk

Cooling: 1 x 60mm fan

Feature: FTP server, Print, webserver, independent download (via HTTP, FTP and BitTorrent), iTunes and UPnP media sever, DLNA, storage server, photo server, video server, external USB hard disk support, One touch copy button, surveillance server, Cloud server.

Dimensions: 102mm x 225mm x 169mm

no 2GB ram, really cannot for me. Dual Core 1.2GHz is decent though. more often than not, 1 could easily exhausted the RAM but never the CPU.

The basic models are good to rival competitors offering, but at that price point as well as the specs, i would've gone for D-Link NAS instead.

if Synology DS216j NAS has 2GB ram, might be able to allow 4K transcoding capability~

since there are 16TB of raw capacity, able function as FTP server, Print, webserver, independent download, iTunes and UPnP media sever, DLNA, storage server, photo server, video server, external USB hard disk support, One touch copy button, surveillance server, Cloud server.

Yes, I though Synology DS216j was an updated version DS216+ with same DSM 6.0, data protection encrytion, Btrfs file system and 4K transcoding capability.

since Synology DS216j can install up to 16TB of raw capacity, with the kind of basic NAS connections, mainly for backup storage, should have allow 4 HDD slots to increase up to 32TB of raw capacity.

It would be great if Synology can include in Web server as well...

Actually there is a Web Station in-built. You can use the inbuilt web station to host webpages. It supports PHP as well.

Just remember that port forwarding and port 80 is required for such process otherwise your users or customers have to load the page url together with a funny port eg <Elijahonli.synology.com:52222> instead of <Elijahonli.synology.com>
