The new Synology RackStation RS812/RS812RP+ rackable solution offers a very scalable and high-performance alternative for your network attached storage needs.
This is a very fast unit that can deliver an average writing speed of around 175 MB/s and an average read speed of approximately 202 MB/s, as claimed by Synology on their own official website. The tests were performed in RAID 5 mode with Link Aggregation enabled.
The unit offers two LAN connectors with fail over support and hot swap capabilities for fast changing of the hard disk drives.
The CPU driving the whole device is working at a frequency of 2133 MHz and it is fed by 1 GB of DDR3 RAM that can be further expanded to 3 GB.
The maximum internal capacity is 16 TB, being made of four 4 TB hard disk drives, but that can be expanded by the means of a Synology RX410 expansion enclosure, thus being able to host up to 32 TB of data.
The RX410 expansion unit is, of course, optional and it communicates with the RS812+ via an eSATA cable with specially designed locking connectors.
The CPU is passively cooled and the whole system is iSCSI and virtualization ready while being very energy efficient, thus consuming only 46.2 watts in operation mode and only 25.5 watts when all the HDDs are in hibernation.
The device offers printing server support for up to two printers and has two USB 2.0 ports along with the eSATA port.
