Introduction

In addition to File Backup mentioned in last post, Synology offers lots of applications with out-of-the-box and cross-platform(Web+App) feature. These utility software do increase Synology’s market share and population growth.

Not only to set up your own media center with these apps, but you can also deploy services as email/teamwork/CRM/WIKI/e-business at once to meet kinds of business needs.

This post lists killer apps for personal use and shares my experience. Highly recommended~

I am a fan of personal NAS with more than 2-year experience and have recently upgraded my DS216J to DS918+ at the 618-Sale event.

As more and more friends show interest in personal NAS, it’s time to write a series of posts sharing some useful tips and my best practices.

In this first post, I will explain what NAS is and which problems it can resolve.
