Synology DiskStation DS716+II
 The
 DS716+II comes with two Gigabit Ethernet ports at the back, which offer
 redundancy in case one of the links goes down, a feature that will 
definitely be appreciated by the enterprise users. You also get two USB 
3.0 ports at the back, and an eSATA port as well. The rear also features
 the reset button, a Kensington Security Slot to keep the unit secure, 
and of course the power port and the fan.
Apart from the two drive bays, each of which has a drive status 
indicator LED of its own, the front has a status indicator that gives 
you an idea of the overall health of the NAS unit. Below that there are 
the two LAN indicators, with the power button at the bottom right of the
 front side of the unit. In between, you have a USB 3.0 port and a copy 
button, which lights up when you connect a USB drive or a camera, and 
can be used to copy data from the connected device to the Synology unit.
We moved our two drives from the DS215j to the DS716+II by following simple instructions
 on the Synology website. Between our previous review and now, Synology 
pushed a big software update to most of its NAS units in the form of DMS
 6.0, which brings a bunch of new features and enhancements.
