High Performance, High Data Availability

With the Link Aggregation enabled, Synology delivers an average 

165.91 MB/sec writing speed under RAID 5 configuration in a Windows 

environment, and 197.8 MB/sec reading. The 2 LAN with failover support 

and hot-swappable drives will ensure continual service uptime should the 

drives need replacement or the unexpected LAN failure. Businesses need a 

strong foundation to face mission-critical tasks so the Synology  

delivers high-performance with high data availability ensuring access when 

it’s needed.

Fit to Business Environment

Windows ADS integration allows the Synology to quickly and 

easily fit in an existing business network environment with no need to 

recreate users’ accounts on the Synology . The User Home feature 

minimizes the administrator’s effort in creating a private shared folder for a 

large amount of users.

Windows ACL support on provides much finer-grained access 

control and efficient privilege settings, allowing IT staffs to set up privileges 

to files and folders on through their familiar Windows user 

interface. The privileges set on Windows ACL will be applied to all access 

entries, including AFP, FTP, File Station, NFS and WebDAV. The secure 

privilege offers IT staff peace of mind, no worries about any loopholes.

iSCSI and Virtualization Ready

With the iSCSI support in DSM 3.0, the Synology provides a 

seamless storage solution for virtualization servers, such as VMware, 

Hyper-V, and Citrix. It is the ideal alternative to SAN solution for businesses. 

Affordable and cost-effective, iSCSI allows SMB users to consolidate storage 

into data center storage arrays while providing hosts with the illusion of 

locally-attached disks.

Robust & Affordable Scalability Up to 45 TB

When the storage capacity of the Synology is nearing its limits, 

it can easily be expanded by the Synology DX510

3

. The Synology DX510 

securely connects to the Synology via an eSATA cable of specially-

designed connectors on both ends to ensure maximum throughput. The 

Synology DX510 can directly expand the existing storage on the Synology 

to a maximum 45 TB capacity.

Full-featured Business Applications

The Synology runs on the renowned operating system, Synology 

DSM 3.0, offering comprehensive applications and features designed 

specifically for SMBs. Comprehensive network protocol support assures 

seamless file sharing across Windows, Mac, and Linux platforms.

Internet file access is simplified by the encrypted FTP server and the web-

based file explorer, Synology File Station. HTTPS, firewall, and IP auto-block 

support ensure file sharing over the Internet is protected at a high security 

level.

A wealth of additional features allows the Synology to replace 

several pieces of network hardware. Synology Web Station with support 

for PHP/MySQL content allows for the hosting of up to 30 websites on a 

single Synology . Synology Surveillance Station offers a centralized 

interface to safeguard the office environments by deploying IP cameras 

throughout the network. The Mail Station add-on turns a Synology 

into a mail server with only few steps of installation and the USB 

printer sharing capability minimizes businesses’ printing cost by sharing 

printing resources throughout the office.

Energy Efficient Design

Synology DiskStations are designed and developed with energy 

efficiency in mind. Compared with the average PC counterparts, Synology 

DiskStations consume a relatively low amount of power and have the hard 

drives hibernate when not in use.

All Synology products are produced with RoHS compliant parts and 

packed with recyclable packing materials. Synology acknowledges 

the responsibility as a global citizen to continually work to reduce the 

environmental impact of every product produced.
