Synology Inc. announced its newest 12-bay NAS units, the DiskStation DS3622xs+ and DS2422+, as well as the DX1222 companion expansion unit. The company’s two biggest desktop form factor products boast computing power to match their storage potential.
“The DS3622xs+ and DS2422+ serve a very diverse market of businesses and creatives who need ample amounts of secure and fast storage, without deploying a rackmount server and the associated costs,” said Peggy Weng, product manager for Synology Inc.
“They stretch what is possible in a tower form factor to provide an excellent solution for all types of power uses,” Weng adds.
All-round performance improvement
The DiskStation DS2422+ offers reliable mass storage and efficient data protection for a wide range of scenarios. Expandable to 24 bays, the DiskStation DS2422+ is perfect for serving and protecting large data sets in multi-user environments. A new processor gives it an impressive edge over its predecessor.
Dependable 2,200/1,300 MB/s sequential read/write speeds, plenty of storage options, and cost-effective deployment make it an ideal choice for small and medium-sized businesses looking to manage and back up their data assets more productively.
A step up in capabilities, the DiskStation DS3622xs+ boasts processing and ample built-in connectivity to support heavy-duty applications, including as networked surveillance or backup server, or storage for virtual machine storage and direct video editing. The high-performance unit delivers over 260,000 4K random read IOPS and 4,700/2,400 MB/s sequential read/write speeds, making it a true storage powerhouse.
“The impressive storage performance of the DiskStation DS3622xs+ is ideal for businesses that need heavy-duty storage for I/O-intensive and multi-user workloads,” said Michael Wang, product manager at Synology Inc. “Its robust built-in data protection tools and intuitive storage management help users get started with reliably managing their data.”
Powerful features with room to grow
Equipped with dual 10GbE RJ-45 ports and three Gigabit ports, the DiskStation DS3622xs+ delivers fast networking and out-of-band management (OOB) management right out of the box while supporting integration with Fibre Channel SAN. The DiskStation DS2422+ integrates easily with existing IT infrastructure thanks to four Gigabit RJ-45 ports. Both units allow for expansion with 10/25GbE network interface cards. NVMe SSD cache can be added through M.2 NVMe SSD adapter cards to boost random I/O performance for hot data. Combination cards allow 10GbE connectivity and SSD cache to be added through a single PCIe 3.0 slot.
The DiskStation DS3622xs+ and DiskStation DS2422+ are both built for DSM 7.0, the latest version of Synology’s DiskStation Manager (DSM) operating system, with more powerful data and storage management tools.
Both the DiskStation DS3622xs+ and DiskStation DS2422+ are designed to optimally work with Synology enterprise drives. The HAT5300 3.5″ SATA HDD and SAT5200 2.5″ SATA SSD are engineered specially to provide class-leading performance and DSM integration for enhanced monitoring and maintenance capabilities.
Storage capacity can easily be doubled or tripled by connecting up to two 12-bay DiskStation DX1222 expansion units. Managing storage expansion is made simple with Synology DSM, which minimizes service disruptions during expansion.
All three units are now available from Synology resellers and partners.
