Taipei, Taiwan—June 29, 2009—Synology® Disk Station DS209+ was bestowed the "Testsieger (Test Winner)" award and was ranked first among twenty reviewed NAS devices after a series of review conducted by CHIP Magazine, Germany. Mr. Christoph Giese, the editor in charge of the DS209+'s review commented: "DS209+ represents a quantum leap in NAS performance."
Giese continued his review by emphasizing the DS209+'s usability for both first time users and advanced corporate users. "The informative and self-explaining user interface enables even beginners to handle the Synology NAS without difficulty," Giese reported. "The DS209+ supports Windows ADS authentication, which is a huge convenience for the IT-administrator."
