I have been tracking the price of the Synology through camelcamelcamel.com (it's brilliant by the way!) since a couple of months & this is the lowest price it has ever been! It was £159.99 only yesterday.

Finally placed an order!  beauty, eh

It is indeed your friend for good prices Smile.

The Synology is fairly straightfroward to set up but give me a shout BB if you want any pointers for fine tuning.

Wow! Already back up to £156.84! The price didn't even last a day!!  Shock

Just goes on to show the advantage of camelcamelcamel.com who immediately emails you when the price falls below a certain set amount that you decide.  Smile

I don't understand Amazon's pricing policy at all. Now it's further up to £159.99! All in a matter of hours!  Shock
