Synology launched its new 3U 16-bay RackStation RS2821RP+, built to excel in large-scale infrastructure backup, business-level file serving, and private cloud services.

It also supports essential remote work applications, such as Synology Office, Synology Drive, and Synology Chat — our file sharing and productivity solutions that keep workers connected and company data accessible.”
More than twice as fast
The new RackStation unit boasts a significant leap in performance over its predecessor,1 delivering 115% higher random write IOPS, 162% higher read IOPS.2 It also offers 26% higher sequential read performance at 2200 MB/s and 65% higher sequential write throughput at 1164 MB/s.
Customizable to your business needs
The RS2821RP+ can be upgraded to meet specific business requirements.
