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.
