Entry level DS2151 which happens to one of the predecessors of the modern-day DS218i. Also, tests have been conducted on the enterprise-focused DS716+1i which have since been succeeded by the DS718+. Synology happens to be one of the leading manufacturers of NAS devices, thus providing a versatile box that will indeed find the required favor with those who go in for such devices and are popular with small as well as medium sized business set-ups.

What does DS218+ comprise of?

• It is 2-bay NAS
• Powered by Celeron j3355 dual-core processor which seeds up to 2.5 GHz.
• It has 2GB of DDR3L RAM.
• Can be expanded by 4GButilizing the second available memory slot.
• One can place 3.5 inch or 2.5 inches SATA drives into each bay.

What does it look like?

• It looks like the DS716+/DS718+ at a given glance.
• It has a front cover that has the tendency to come out rather loose easily.
• It is rather unobtrusive. Measures about 165mmx108mmx232.2mm
• Weighs 1.3kg without drives

What are the other specific features of DS218+?

• It consists of AES-Ni hardware encryption.
• A virtual manager
• MailPlus Server license that allows one to run a hosted email solution.
• It does support more concurrent users Synology’s Office, Drive, and Chat collaboration apps when compared to consumer NAS units.
• The DS218+ supports 4K 30 fps hardware transcoding which means one can stream those with H.265 files.

The basic concept behind Synology’s Movement app is indeed to offer the basic functionality of Google Photos on a private cloud whereby one host as well as controls all of one’s data. No doubt the app is definitely in progress and does lack some elements which some of the more mature Synology offerings such as DS video has.

These features are available via Moments Web-based interface on one’s desktop and also on the moment’s app for i05 and Android.

Synology’s EZ internet package does make it easy the contents of one’s Synology unit to be available via the internet which it will obviously be required in order to have features such as remote upload to be able to work. This can be possible by opening the required ports on one’s router.

Another app that does aim to replicate a Google product is Synology’s Drive which is indeed functionally equivalent to cloud storage solutions such as Dropbox as well as Google’s app by the same name. No doubt the app does not offer any additional functionality that makes one ant use if over the other given options.

The drive is useful for those who feel data is important n the organization they are working for and the data need to be under one’s control end to end. Also, it is useful in case one values one’s privacy and one is responsible for all of one’s own backups as well as physical security. It is easy to use Drive and it also does a good job of maintaining version histories of all the required documents.

As digital adoption grows, safeguards are indeed required so that the internet is not switched on and off on a whim.

Digital technologies have no doubt impacted the Indian economy. With 560 million internet subscribers, India has, in fact, more digital consumers than any other country in the world, except China. India is rather digitizing faster than every country in the world with the exception of Indonesia, and in fact, about nearly 40% of its population has internet connectivity and has tremendous potential to grow.

Why shutting down the internet is no longer an option?

As far as most countries, the tipping point in digital adoption came when the cost of data dropped below 1% of average household income and smartphone penetration crossed 20%. For example at a given point of time, once Brazil and China passed 20% penetration in 2012, it took them just four years to cross 52% and 71% penetration, respectively.

As rapidly as the use of digital technologies has been growing so far, it seems clear that India is poised to witness greater acceleration. Over the past five years, the gross merchandise value of e-commerce doubled, and along the way, it has indeed completely changed the way one shops. Over the past four years, utilization of ride-hailing applications increased three-fold and, in the process, fundamentally inverted notions of vehicle ownership as well as usage.

Adoption is not limited to urban areas. Over the past decade, various digital platforms rolled out by the government have indeed penetrated deep into the rural hinterland, because of the increased telecom penetration and the coming together of key elements of digital infrastructures, such as identity and payment technologies.

Digital technology at a given point of time was a luxury meant for privileged people. Today, it is ubiquitous. In urban areas, digital platforms have so insinuated themselves into one’s way of life that they are often a reliable substitute for existing infrastructure. In rural areas that until recently had little to no access to basic infrastructure, they do have become the lifeline that does connect people and places which the system made use of to previously ignore. One has indeed reached a point where these technologies are not so much a nice-to-have, but an essential part of the infrastructure on which our national growth much depends.

The government in India has long operated on the belief that in a national security emergency, in case the internet gets shut down, it will prevent perpetrators of dangerous and illegal acts from communicating with each other.

Based on this assumption, Indian authorities have rather freely and frequently ordered internet service providers to switch off their internet access in various parts of the country.

According to internet shutdown.in, since 2012, there have in fact been a total of 315 internet shutdowns in India and that too, with the number of shutdowns having doubled every year since 2014.

Adoption is not limited to only to urban areas. Over the past decade, various digital platforms rolled out by the government have indeed penetrated deep into the rural hinterland, because of the increased telecom penetration and the coming together of key elements of digital infrastructures, such as identity as well as payment technologies

The Internet can indeed alter specific brain regions and also affect our attention capacity, memory processes as well as social interaction. The Internet can indeed produce both acute and sustained alterations in specific areas of cognition.

Investigations have been on concerning leading hypotheses on how the Internet may be able to alter cognitive processes.

High Usage of Internet Can Impact Brain Functions

Further examination was carried out to see the extent to which these hypotheses were indeed supported by recent findings from psychological, psychiatric and neuroimaging research. The report did combine the evidence to produce revised models on how the Internet could indeed affect the brain’s structure, function, and cognitive development.

The key findings of this report are that high levels of Internet use could indeed impact on many functions of the brain. For example, the limitless stream of prompts, as well as notifications from the Internet, does encourage us towards constantly holding divided attention — which then, in turn, may indeed decrease our capacity for maintaining concentration on a single task.

Additionally, the online world now does present one with a uniquely large and constantly-accessible resource for facts and information, which is never more than a few taps and swipes away. Now, one has the most of the world’s factual information literally at one’s fingertips that it appears to have the potential to begin changing the ways in which it is stored.

The recent introduction as well as the widespread adoption of these online technologies, along with social media, is also of concern to some teachers as well as parents. The potential negative effects could be as simple as ensuring that children are not really missing out on other crucial developmental activities, such as social interaction and exercise, by spending too much time on digital devices. In order, to help with this, there are also now a multitude of apps as well as software programs available for restricting Internet usage and access on smartphones as well as computers.

There is much more to learn about the impact of the digital world on mental health as well as brain health.
