  hi peter.

  these devices are network servers. you can use them to set up CCTV monitoring 
systems, print servers to share printers across your network, as a virtual 
private network server, as network storage, or extend the system as a 
switchboard function for a business. more is online at:

      Hi John.

      Synology's web interface is navigable with jaws with training. i've set 
up synology stations for people in the past, and they can be made to work. I'm 
totally blind for reference. Its a case of memorising and perhaps labeling the 
buttons using your prefered screen reader. Please drop me a note off list with 
the kind of thing you're trying to do, i may be able to suggest alternatives or 
even let you try out the interface. I would rather not publish log info to the 
list for obvious reasons if i can get you access to an interface, so direct 
contact would be preferable.

      all the best,

      Mo.

        I would like to buy a Synology ds412+ for nas storage but at £500, it 
is a bit expensive to buy on spec, in case it is not configurable with jaws or 
window-eyes due to the graphics overlay.  In this respect we can't try before 
we buy!  Has anyone tried synology's web interface?  or any ideas on how to 
evade this vicious circle?
