Synology is increasingly relying on its own ecosystem for upcoming Plus models

Germany, Düsseldorf - 16.04.2025 - Following the success of the high-performance series, the company is now also increasingly relying on Synology's own storage media for the Plus series models to be released from 2025. As a result, users will benefit from higher performance, increased reliability, and more efficient support.

"With our proprietary hard disk solution, we have already seen significant benefits for our customers in various deployment scenarios," says Chad Chiang, Managing Director of Synology GmbH and Synology UK. "By extending our integrated ecosystem to the Plus Series, we aim to provide all users - from home users to small businesses - with the highest levels of security, performance, and significantly more efficient support."

For users, this means that starting with Plus Series models released in 2025, only Synology's own hard drives and third-party hard drives certified to Synology's specifications will be compatible and offer the full range of features and support.

Plus models released up to and including 2024 (excluding XS Plus series and rack models) will not change. In addition, the migration of hard disks from existing Synology NAS to a new Plus model will continue to be possible without restrictions.
