DiskStation DS1621xs+

This NAS combines a quad-core Xeon processor with ECC memory and 10 Built-inGbE, allowing you to improve file management capability and deliver high-performance data storage.

"The DS1621xs+ is a professional unit with a more compact format, providing flexibility for companies that want to install it. We work to adapt to the needs of all users, and we know that not all companies have the infrastructure to install a rack drive. The DS1621xs+ solves this situation by offering high performance and superior processing power", clarifies Hewitt Lee, Director of Synology Product Management Group.

The DS1621xs+'s quad-core Xeon processor is the same installed on Synology data center devices. This provides more than 3,1 GB/s sequential read performance and 1,8 Gb/s sequential write performance that allows you to manage large data sets and multiple users quickly.

Linking to ECC memory provides reliability, turning this unit into a perfect device for secure data storage. And all this with a size of 11,5 L.

The six internal bays of 3,5 inches enable up to 96 TB of raw storage capacity. This can be applied up to 256 TB adding two DX517 expansion units. The DS1621xs+ also includes two M.2 slots 2280 that allow you to install an ultra-fast NVMe cache to improve storage capacity and speed without sacrificing bays.

The 10 Integrated GbE of the DS1621xs+ allows you to complete large backup or file transfer tasks quickly and securely. The unit allows you to insert an additional card 10 Or 25 GbE to accelerate and address high-resolution network rendering projects or provide even faster transfer performance for multiple VMs.
