Synology RackStation RS815 1U 4-Bay NAS

Synology Inc. launched the RackStation RS815, a scalable 1U 4-bay rackmount NAS built to help space or budget businesses effectively store, protect, and share their data.

“More and more small businesses need a compact server that can handle a variety of workloads,” said Jonathan Wang, product manager, Synology. “With RS815, we want to demonstrate how uncompromising performance and functionality are achievable even within a small footprint.“

RS815 introduces a shallow 12-inch chassis design – 37% shorter than its predecessor – that makes it suitable for deployment in both industrial standard environments and smaller server rooms. Powered by a 1.33 GHz dual-core processor with a floating-point unit and 1GB RAM, it delivers the multitasking capability required for a multifunctional, all-in-one server. The dual Gigabit LAN ports supporting failover and Link Aggregation further ensure reading and writing speeds that exceed 216MB/s and 121MB/s respectively.

RS815 runs DiskStation Manager (DSM), the Synology’s OS for NAS devices. Its range of applications from file sharing, backup to network management make RS815 capable of providing essential business services and increasing productivity at work. When the time comes for expansion, it can be scaled up to eight drives by connecting to an expansion unit RX415, paving the way for a company towards a growing, exciting future.

The RackStation RS815 is available at €450 without VAT.
