Taipei, Taiwan— 22 February 2023— Synology today announced the availability of the 2-bay DiskStation DS223, the latest addition to its lineup of essential storage servers dedicated to home and SOHO use.
Powered by the versatile Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM) operating system, the DS223 comes with a complete host of intuitive data management solutions that home users can leverage to get their growing data under control.
"As the amount of data we each generate daily continues to grow at an unprecedented pace, the need for effective file management has never been greater," said Michael Wang, Product Manager at Synology. "The DS223 is the perfect solution for home users looking to manage their data in a smart way with a centralized, comprehensive platform that goes beyond basic storage capabilities."
Private cloud for easy data organization and sharing
The DS223 enables users to consolidate files from various sources on their own private cloud, making their data easily accessible and easy to manage from any device. Up to 36 TB of raw storage1 provides plenty of space for storing all your documents, media, and other files in one secure location.
Designed specifically for multimedia files, Synology Photos simplifies organization with automatic sorting capabilities. Secure sharing options make it easy to enjoy digital memories with family and friends, while support for RAW file formats supports professional creative work.
The option to integrate the DS223 with popular cloud storage services, including Google Drive, Dropbox, and Microsoft OneDrive, enables users to sync files to and from the cloud, delivering true data centralization and data ownership.

Backup hub for simple and reliable data protection
The DS223 can serve as a destination for real-time or scheduled backups of computer folders, effectively protecting them against ransomware or accidental deletion. On mobile devices, users can configure Synology Photos to automatically upload photos and videos to their private cloud for continuous protection.
Backups and other data stored on the server are kept secure thanks to the Btrfs file system, which relies on a number of technologies to prevent data corruption and provide users with the convenience to restore files to a previous version in case of accidental or malicious changes.
Built-in backup solutions for the DS223 itself provide further protection. The entire system (including data, configurations, and installed packages) or specific shared folders can be backed up to a variety of destinations. Near-continuous protection is also available through snapshots that can be replicated elsewhere and rapidly restored.
