(UPDATE – 6 May 206AM): The winners have been chosen! Read more below for further information!
Launched into the market last month, the Synology DiskStation DS216j is a network-attached storage (NAS) that is mainly designed for home and personal users. Built with a 1.0GHz Marvell Armada 385 88F6820 dual-core processor and supports Synology’s new DiskStation Manager 6.0 operating system, it can be used for several purposes including centralized storage, media server, and surveillance hub. The newly released NAS is also the subject of our inaugural “Review and Make It Yours” giveaway.
Through this giveaway, three units of Synology DiskStation DS216j inclusive of a hard drive for each unit are up for grabs. Should you be chosen as one of the winners, Synology will then deliver the NAS to your home or premise for you to test out and tell the world what do you think of it on Lowyat.NET main page. Once you are done with the review, you then get to keep the DS216j!
