Hi guys. I plan to get my first NAS. Majority plan to use for storing my design files, media back up and able to access remotely.
Also will use for Plex to watch show.
Is Synology 918+ overkill for my usage?
Anyone have suggestions? Thanks

Ive been researching Synology lately. Anyway 420+ and 920+ along with a few others just got announced. Should be shipping within this year if you can wait.
I think for your use case the 418+ or 420+ is sufficient. Just that the 918+ and likely 920+ just top up a bit. I say go for it.

Yeah, I saw news about 920+, price at 16k Taiwan dollar. Wonder how much when selling in Malaysia.

Minimum 4bay if backup and media store together.

Minimum 2 lan network connect and able to expand wear USB.

Seems 918+ fit the requirements.

I'm guessing rm2.5k.
If anything at least you can hunt for the 918+ assuming the last few units might have a price drop.

Yup, I’m going to wait it available here.

Get DS920+ if price not much different than DS918+
Celeron J4125 2.0mhz burst to 2.7mhz vs Celeron J3455 1.5mhz burst to 2.3mhz
DDR4 vs DDR3

NAS use for many years so it would be better to get the faster and latest model.

Agree, I will hold and wait it arrive Malaysia.
