Synology DS218, a multimedia NAS with enhanced encryption support
Synology DS218 includes a hardware acceleration transfer system and supports H.264 / H.265 1080p and H.265 4K codecs. It converts 4K videos to 1080p to make them playable on non-4K devices and at lower speeds, whether it's local media players or remote mobile devices.

As a result, 4K video automatically adapts to your device screen during playback. So you can play your saved 4K video on a Full HD TV or on your mobile phone.
