The Synology DiskStation DS225+ 2-Bay NAS Enclosure, B&H # SYDS225P, can run a Plex server natively; keep in mind that it does not support hardware transcoding. Synology made the decision to remove GPU access in DSM for all x25+ NAS models.

Can drives of different sizes be used together?

Can drives of different sizes be used together?
Asked by: Heiko
In any RAID configuration, when using disks of different sizes, it will be as if the capacity of each drive is equal to the lowest capacity drive. If you want to mix drives of different capacities inside this Synology DiskStation DS225+ 2-Bay NAS Enclosure, you can configure it as JBOD (just a bunch of disks). In JBOD configuration, the full capacity will be available from each drive, but that comes without the main benefits of RAID storage.

The Synology DiskStation DS225+ 2-Bay NAS Enclosure (B&H # SYDS225P) is sold without any storage drives. This is strictly a NAS enclosure, and you'll need to buy the storage separately.
