Best Prime Day NAS deals 2024 — Synology, TerraMaster, ASUSTOR, WD, and Seagate products get huge discounts

Synology DiskStation DS224+: $299 $239 at B&H Photo

The DS224+ is my go-to choice whenever someone asks me for a NAS recommendation. This 2-bay NAS has the ideal combination of hardware and software, and is the ideal choice if you're starting out or need to upgrade to a powerful NAS with two drive bays. If the B&H link below is sold out, you can get the same deal at Newegg. 

Synology DiskStation DS923+: $599 $479 at B&H Photo

The DS923+ is the best Plex server available right now. It doesn't have the best hardware in this segment as you don't get multi-Gigabit connectivity, but that doesn't matter. In day-to-day reliability and feature-set, the DS923+ holds up better than its rivals, and if you want to set up a Plex media server in your home, you should get this NAS. It is available at the same price at Newegg as well. 

Synology DiskStation DS223j: $189 $151 at B&H Photo

Not convinced you'll take full advantage of a NAS? Then you'll need to get the DS223j so you can see the potential of the software and decide if centralized storage is ideal for your needs. It isn't quite as powerful as the DS224+, but you still get access to a terrific software suite, and it is a reliable choice if you're just getting started. 

TerraMaster F4-423 4-Bay NAS: $459 $367 with coupon at Amazon

The F4-423 is a terrific 4-bay choice if you want to set up a Plex server. It has hardware transcoding, dual 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports, 4GB of RAM, and you can slot in four 20TB drives, taking total addressable storage to 80TB. I used it extensively over the course of the last year, and it is an easy recommendation if you need a powerful 4-bay NAS. 

TerraMaster F2-423: $299 $239 at Amazon

The F2-423 is nearly identical to the F4-423, with the biggest difference being two drive bays instead of four. If you don't see yourself using the additional drive bays, the F2-423 is a phenomenal value at just $239. The rest of the hardware is identical, and you get the same dual 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, 4GB of RAM, and same software. 

Asustor AS5304T 4-Bay NAS: $459 $419 at Amazon

If you want a NAS that's great at the essentials while still packing powerful innards, the AS5304T is a decent pick. It's not a major discount, but Amazon is currently selling the unit for $40 less than its usual going price. 

TerraMaster T6-423 6-Bay NAS: $699 $524 with coupon at Amazon

Want a 6-bay NAS that's designed for Plex media streaming? You should take a look at the T6-423. It is powered by the quad-core Celeron N5095, has 4GB of RAM, dual 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports at the back, and M.2 SSD slots. Combine that with modern software, and you're getting quite a lot here.

QNAP TS-462-4G-US 4-Bay NAS: $489 $451 at Amazon

QNAP's TS-462-4G-US combines a powerful Celeron N4505 with 2.5GbE connectivity and four drive bays. You also get an HDMI port, the ability to upgrade to 10GbE, and useful software features.

Seagate IronWolf 8TB NAS HDD: $199 $149 at Amazon

The 12TB IronWolf has been my go-to choice, and it combines good storage density with excellent affordability, making it a great choice if you want to upgrade storage. 

WD 20TB Elements External Enclosure: $494 $274 at B&H Photo

This is the single best storage deal you'll find; the 20TB drive housed within can be easily extracted, and you can use that in your home NAS server. It sold out in a matter of hours last year, and I predict the same this time, so act now. 

WD Elements 18TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive: $529 $329 at Amazon

Currently sitting with a 38% discount, you can use the 18TB Elements as a standalone hard drive or extract the HDD inside the enclosure and slot it into your NAS. For what you're paying, you are getting the best value in this segment. 

WD easystore 14TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive: $309 $249.99 at Best Buy

You can use this 14TB easystore as a hard drive in its own right, but you can also easily extract the drive located within the enclosure and use it inside your existing NAS. Whatever you end up doing, this is a terrific value if you need 14TB of affordable storage. 

Seagate Exos X20 20TB NAS HDD: $365.99 $343.99 at Newegg

As much as I like IronWolf, the Exos X20 is a terrific option if you want plenty of storage in your NAS server. I talked about how this is my favorite NAS drive, and if you need long-term reliability, you need to act on this deal. 

Seagate IronWolf Pro 16TB NAS HDD: $392 $249 at Newegg

The IronWolf Pro is a terrific choice if you need plenty of reliable storage, and I've used these drives for nearly four years without any issues. Grab the hard drive from Newegg and you'll save a straight $72, no promo code required.
