Block StorageBuild a high-efficiency iSCSI or Fibre Channel SAN environment, delivering secure and reliable block storage with exceptional performance and simplified management.Solutions for performance and latency-sensitive workloadsDedicated block storageHigh-performance all-flash SAN storage arrays with exceptional storage efficiency.Uptime and data protectionHigh-availability and on-premises, off-site, and hybrid cloud backup strategies.Immutability and encryptionNext-level security with immutable snapshots and full volume encryption.Virtualization-readyCertified SAN storage for major virtualization solutions.

Performance for business-critical workloadsAll-flash systemsSynology all-flash systems are ideal for databases, VM storage, online transaction processing (OLTP), and other IO-intensive and latency-sensitive deployments. These systems offer efficient data storage through deduplication, achieving a 3.15:1 ratio.Cost-effective hybrid storageLeverage SSD cache to create hybrid storage arrays for an optimal balance between performance, cost, and storage capacity.

Maximize uptime and data availabilityRedundancy solutions

Active-active systems with dual-controller architecture ensure seamless operations in case of equipment failure with instant failover. Alternatively, high-availability clusters can be created by pairing Synology servers to maximize service uptime.

Fast data recovery

Achieve near-instantaneous data protection with snapshots. Point-in-time copies of your data can be replicated off-site. In the event of unforeseen disruptions, services can be quickly restored, ensuring data integrity and minimizing downtime.

Secure and reliable block storageRansomware-resistant data protectionWrite-once-read-many (WORM)-enabled Immutable Snapshots safely store immutable copies of your data, providing a high level of protection against ransomware attacks and bolstering your data security.Securing data with encryptionFull-volume encryption protects sensitive information from unauthorized access, even if the physical device is lost or stolen.Learn more
