help Synology DS923+ FAQ
Does the Synology DS923+ support 10GbE networking speeds?
The base model comes with dual 1GbE Ethernet ports, but it includes an expandable PCIe slot. You can use this slot to install an E10G22-T1-Mini network add-on card to achieve 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds for high-bandwidth workflows.
Can I upgrade the RAM in the Synology DS923+?
Yes, the DS923+ comes with 8GB of DDR4 ECC memory but can be officially upgraded up to 16GB using Synology's expansion modules. Some users successfully install third-party RAM, but doing so may void your warranty if it damages the unit.
Does the Synology DS923+ use an Intel processor?
No, unlike some previous Plus series models, the DS923+ is powered by an AMD Ryzen R1600 processor. This CPU choice provides solid performance for running multiple Docker containers and virtual machines.
Can the DS923+ transcode 4K video on the fly for remote streaming?
Because it uses an AMD Ryzen processor rather than an Intel CPU with Quick Sync Video, the DS923+ lacks integrated hardware transcoding. Direct playback of 4K files works flawlessly, but converting them on the fly to lower resolutions will rely heavily on CPU power and may struggle.
