Processor

Armed with Intel^® Xeon^® D-1521 4-core 2.4 GHz processor burst up to 2.7 GHz, UC3200’s dual CPUs provide enterprise-class performance of 140,000 4K random write IOPS with low latency.

4 x DDR4 memory slots

8GB ECC UDIMM, expandable up to 64GB to boost system performance.

Fan

Redundant, modularized fans for easy maintenance and replacement, minimizing service downtime.

SATA DOM

The dedicated SATA DOM isolates the operating system from the regular data stored in hard drives.

Non-Transparent Bridge (NTB)

Connect two controller modules at a blazingly fast speed and instantly sync memory data between the controllers to prevent cached data loss when one controller is unavailable.

A system built for iSCSI and Fibre Channel

DSM UC, an operating system designed to ease the learning curve, allows you to manage the two controllers from one single portal. The built-in monitor applications display the status at a glance and send prompt notifications when important events occur, so that IT administrators can stay alert to potential problems and respond in the shortest time possible.

A unified interface for intuitive management

Cutting-edge LUN features

Advanced LUN functionality significantly improves VM performance and offers lightning-fast snapshot creation, recovery, and cloning, as well as VMware VAAI and Windows ODX support.

Intuitive management

A streamlined management interface makes connection and permission management exceptionally easy, even in large-scale SAN environments.

For large and small deployments

Support for iSCSI as well as Fibre Channel means that Synology storage systems integrate as easily in smaller setups as in enterprise environments.

A unified interface for intuitive management

Disaster-proof your critical data

Snapshot Replication is put in place with the support of Btrfs file system, offering schedulable and near-instantaneous data protection. Supporting up to 4,096 system-wide snapshots for local volumes or offsite servers, UC3200 brings application-aware snapshot protection and instant recovery of virtual machines in iSCSI LUNs in the event of a disaster.
