If you want to install M.2 SSDs for cache, they’re located on the bottom and are just as painless to install with no screws required. There’s also a plastic key to lock the drives into place so there’s no accidental popping out of hard drives. The hard drive bay slides back in, the lever goes down, and that’s it. Just lift the lever, pop out two plastic panels, slide in your hard drive and pop those side panels back into place. The four hard drive bays are accessed from the front of the NAS. Refreshingly, this isn’t the case with the DS920+. You have to crack the DS216Play open to get inside, then screw everything into place.
This older two-bay NAS has served me well for more than five years without any dramas, but installing hard drives was akin to upgrading storage in desktop PCs. NAS devices have come a long way since I first bought my Synology DS216Play.
