eTeknix published a review on the Synology DiskStation DS119j 1-Bay Budget NAS

A quote from the article:
The DS119j could best be described as a powerful entry-level device. It comes with a few limitations when compared to its bigger brothers, but it’s still packed with some powerful features.

Synology built the unit with one of Marvell’s Armada 3700 88F3720 processors. It is a 64-bit dual-core processor with a speed of 800 MHz. While that isn’t a lot if compared to desktop systems, it’s plenty for a solid NAS. The performance is also aided by the Hardware Encryption Engine. It will significantly increase the performance when you have encrypted shares set up. The CPU is coupled with 256 MB DDR3L memory which can’t be upgraded further.
