The Graveyard - Products No Longer Supported => D-Link Storage => DNS-323 => Topic started by: dicrouthamel on September 19, 2015, 11:35:00 AM

I still have my DNS-323 with two 500GB spinners in them. I'm looking to upgrade the space to two 1TB SDD drives, but not sure if the DNS-323 supports that. Perhaps it's best to move on from the DNS-323 - it's quite old now :)
If not the DNS-323, what would you recommend?

Forget it!
There is no way that SSDs will be cost effective in a small NAS - the network connection is the bottle neck. SSDs are excellent for use in direct access devices, computers, notebooks and such but that speed does not translate over a network.
Even in large data centres SSDs are only used in servers and some NAS boxes that are on a 10 Gigabit fibre network and even then the SSDs are loafing along.
If you are looking for speed you need to upgrade your network to at least 1 Gigabit for everything including the router.

Have to agree with Ivan above - unless you had the 2 1TB SSD's just sitting around doing nothing and just needed the extra storage
But to physically go out a buy new - there's no benefit except the reduction in the drive dying.
