Quick answer

To replace Google Photos, the easiest pick is the Synology BeeStation (4TB, app-driven, no setup). For a richer library with redundancy, the Synology DS224+ with Synology Photos or a UGREEN NASync DXP2800 give phone auto-backup, face and subject grouping and shared albums on hardware you own. All keep your photos off Big Tech with no monthly fee.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best NAS to replace Google Photos?

The Synology BeeStation for simplicity, or the Synology DS224+ and UGREEN DXP2800 for a fuller library with redundancy. All offer automatic phone backup and AI grouping similar to Google Photos.

Does a NAS have face recognition like Google Photos?

Yes. Synology Photos and the UGREEN and QNAP photo apps group by faces and subjects locally on the device, so the AI features run without sending your photos to a third party.

How do I move my Google Photos to a NAS?
