*compared to predecessor DS2419+

The DS2422+ features 26.8% faster sequential reads and 122.9% faster sequential writes compared to its predecessor

The DS2422+ features 172.3% faster random 4K IOPS reads and 66.1% faster random 4K IOPS writes compared to its predecessor

Rise to the challenge

Prepare your DS2422+ for heavy workloads or upgrade flexibly as your business continues to grow. Use add-in cards to add bandwidth, fast SSD cache, or both.

Maximize bandwidth

Handle heavier input/output and serve more users with dual-port Synology 10 or 25GbE network interface cards.

Boost storage performance

Accelerate HDD arrays with an M.2 NVMe SSD adapter card and SNV3000 series SSDs, or install SAT5200 SATA SSDs in drive bays to increase performance with SSD cache.

Do both with one card

Add both 10GbE connectivity and M.2 NVMe SSD slots for SSD cache with a single combination NIC and adapter card.
