Synology SA3610 and SA3410 Up to 96-Bay NAS at 1.7PB

Synology, Inc. launched the SA3610 and SA3410, 2 scalable storage systems that allow organizations to store large data volumes without sacrificing speed and performance.

Starting at 12-bays each, businesses can scale all the way to 96 drive bays ⁽¹⁾ for a total of 1.7PB of raw storage capacity. ⁽²⁾ Capable performers, these models make for central backup, surveillance, and file servers.

“With stable, high throughput, and plenty of capacity, the new units are perfect for handling large data volumes, including simultaneous backups, archiving, surveillance recordings, or video serving and storage,” said Michael Wang, product manager. “For these applications it can be difficult to estimate future storage needs, but with the SA Series, businesses can start small and expand whenever their data growth demands it.“

Reliable and dependable
The SA3610 and SA3410 support demanding applications thanks to over 6,200/3,000MB/s sequential RW speeds, ⁽³⁾ support for 10/25/40GbE and FC networking (2x10GbE RJ-45 included), as well as network bonding and SMB Multichannel support. Hybrid storage arrays can be set up as a cost-efficient solution to cut down I/O speeds and latency on HDD volumes, with SSD volumes acting as read/write cache.⁽⁴⁾

Remote management solutions such as a dedicated out-of-band (OOB) management port, central management through Synology CMS, and cloud-powered remote monitoring with Active Insight help reduce administrative overhead, while hardware redundancy and active-passive clustering through Synology High Availability work to maximize service uptime.

Versatile data platform
All the firm’s SA series systems include a suite of reliable file management, sharing, and syncing solutions for business. Synology Drive enables anywhere access to file management and sharing tools on PCs, Macs, and mobile devices. Connecting and syncing data between devices, it allows remote teams and offices to stay on the same page.

Synology Drive ShareSync can be leveraged to distribute files to servers around the world and sync data back to company headquarters, or teams can keep multiple sites in sync using less bandwidth and storage by leveraging the power of the cloud. With Hybrid Share, ⁽⁵⁾ all shared data is saved to Synology C2 Storage data centers to be accessed on demand, while frequently accessed files are cached locally on the company’s systems for access at LAN speeds.

Data protection built in

The DiskStation Manager (DSM) offers solutions to back up PCs, servers, VMs, and SaaS applications. Active Backup Suite allows organizations to consolidate backups of Windows clients and servers, Linux endpoints, Synology systems, VMware and Hyper-V virtual machines, as well as Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace onto the SA3610 and SA3410, while managing all backup tasks through a centralized management console.

Bare-metal and file-level restoration options are available for physical devices, while VMs can temporarily be restored to a built-in hypervisor to minimize service downtime. Block-level data de-dupe can reduce storage use, while incremental backups minimize backup time and bandwidth use.

Local snapshots enable the protection of files and LUNs against accidents and external threats, such as ransomware attacks, while minimizing storage use and RTOs. All company’s data management solutions feature system and file backup capabilities for secure backup onto other firm’s systems or a cloud storage service. (more about data protection)

Private video surveillance
The Surveillance Station is a VMS designed for businesses that already protects over 500,000 sites. Flexible ONVIF support and over 8,300 validated IP cameras make deployment simple and easy to adjust to each location’s requirements. Up to 128 IP cameras can be added to each SA3610 and SA3410 unit, ⁽⁶⁾ and multiple servers can easily be monitored, managed, and backed up through a built-in central management system.
