What operating system does the Synology DiskStation DS720+ use?

The DS720+ runs on Synology's proprietary DiskStation Manager (DSM) operating system, which is browser-based and closely resembles a desktop computer interface. It provides built-in applications for file sharing, automated backups, and running Docker containers.

Can I upgrade the RAM in the Synology DS720+?

Yes, while the DS720+ ships with 4GB of DDR4 RAM, it includes a single expansion slot on the underside of the casing. Users commonly upgrade it to 8GB or more by adding a standard 4GB or 8GB DDR4 SO-DIMM module to improve multitasking performance.

How many hard drives can I fit inside the Synology DS720+?

The DS720+ is a two-bay network-attached storage device, meaning it can physically hold two 3.5-inch SATA hard drives or 2.5-inch SSDs. Many users configure these two drives in a RAID 1 setup to automatically mirror their data for backup redundancy.

Does the Synology DS720+ support M.2 NVMe SSD caching?

Yes, the NAS features dual M.2 NVMe slots located directly on the motherboard beneath the main hard drive tray. You can install two NVMe SSDs to act as a high-speed read/write cache, significantly accelerating access to frequently used files.
