Actual maximum storage pool and volume sizes depend on drive sizes used, the number of drive bays available, and the RAID configuration.
Usable capacity for each volume will be lower than the maximum volume size and is dependent on the filesystem and the amount of system metadata stored.
The testing standard was based on the maximum number of concurrent connections supported by this model. During the testing, 25% of the connections were used to transfer files concurrently. The transfer process guaranteed that the connections were not interrupted; the minimum transfer speed was not guaranteed.
Performance figures are obtained from testing conducted with the device fully populated with drives, with their default memory configuration, and under a continuous recording setup. Actual system capabilities may vary based on configuration, drive performance, enabled features, and the presence of additional workloads.
Use NVR Selector to quickly find a suitable model based on your requirements.
The number of video channels that can be viewed simultaneously is double the maximum number of cameras for the same codec and resolution.
500,000 (applies to files indexed or hosted by Synology Drive. For file access through other standard protocols, refer to the File Services section above)
Notes
Exceeding the recommended numbers above will not block application operations, but may result in longer response time.
EXT4 file system and non-encrypted shared folders were used during the aforementioned testing.
Notes:Model specifications are subject to change without prior notice.
The figures are based on Synology internal testing. Each performance test is done individually. No other services or applications are processed at the same time.
The actual performance may be lower than lab testing figure due to differences in server configuration, deployment, and the number of active operations.
If usage requirements exceed the specifications above, please contact our regional partners for professional advice.
