SHR maximizes the data capacity of your RAID when different size HDDs are used. Calculate your RAID needs.
For new users with limited technical knowledge who want to protect their data using RAID technology, a convenient installation wizard will guide you through all the steps during your first installation.
Add new disks on the fly in Storage Manager with a simple click. Learn more about SHR.
While creating a volume, choose to plan ahead and leave empty or unallocated space for future use.
Engineered to handle intensive 24/7 workloads, Synology drives consistently deliver top-grade performance.
Store multiple backup versions with block-level incremental data backup and cross-version deduplication.
Award-winning operating system with an intuitive user interface and powerful capabilities.
Secure data with comprehensive built-in security tools to protect your devices against evolving threats.
