Description

The RackStation RS815 4-Bay NAS Server from Synology is a scalable, 1U 4-bay rackmount NAS built to help businesses effectively store, protect, and share data. Enterprise features and stability are built into the hardware design, making it a well suited choice for growing small businesses with limited space or a limited budget. This unit has four drive bays, each of which natively supports 3.5″ and 2.5″ SATA III 6 Gb/s and SATA II 3 Gb/s hard drives and SSDs. Should users need to expand the overall capacity of their RS815, the optional RX415 expansion unit offers an additional four drive bays that are identical to those offered by the RS815.

The Rackstation RS815 is powered by a 1.33 GHz MARVELL Armada XP MV78230 Dual-Core processor, which will allow you to run multiple functions simultaneously. The built-in 1GB of DDR3 RAM will allow quick access to frequently-used files and programs. Network connectivity is achieved via the 2 x Gigabit Ethernet ports with failover support, which helps to provide redundancy in the case that a LAN connection malfunction occurs on one port. In addition, link aggregation, powered by four LAN ports, helps to increase connection speeds beyond the limits of a single network port or cable.

The RackStation RS815 runs on the DiskStation Manager (DSM) operating system, which offers helps simplify managing your RS815, as well as accessing and sharing data. Synology’s Package Center also lets users download and install add-on packages that are designed for individual or business needs. A variety of RAID modes are supported, which help provide users with data redundancy, speed, or a combination of both. Supported RAID modes include RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, Basic, Synology Hybrid RAID, and JBOD.

The RackStation RS815 operates on 100-240 VAC at 50/60 Hz and includes an accessory pack and an AC power cord.

12″ Depth
Introducing a shallow 12″ chassis design that is 37% shorter than its predecessor, the RS815 can be deployed with as compact as a 2-post rack or a wall-mount server rack. For companies where space is at a premium, it demonstrates how performance and functionality are achievable even within a small footprint
Dual-Core CPU
The RS815 is equipped with a 1.33 GHz MARVELL Armada XP MV78230 Dual-Core processor featuring a built-in floating-point unit which helps enhances the overall capability of the main CPU, enabling higher working efficiency. Additionally, 1GB of DDR3 RAM helps increase the RS815’s multi-tasking power. It delivers an average read speed of over 216 MB/sec reading speed and an average write speed of over 121 MB/sec when using a RAID 5 configuration in a Windows environment
USB 3.0 and eSATA
The RS815 helps optimizes your working experiences by enabling faster and more efficient data transfers. To help ensure scalability, the RS815 provides an eSATA and two USB 3.0 interfaces in the back to speed up data transfers with Synology expansion units and external hard drives
Scalability up to 8 Drives
When your data storage is nearing its limits, the RS815 can be connected to a dedicated RX415 expansion unit, letting you scale up to 8 drives for additional storage on the fly. The RX415 connects through an eSATA cable with specially-designed locking connectors
Dual LAN Ports for Failover and Link Aggregation Support
To help ensure your business continuity, the RS815 features two built-in Gigabit LAN ports supporting failover, which is engineered to provide reliable redundancy even if a LAN connection malfunction occurs on one port, reducing the chance of service disruption and costly downtime. In addition, Link Aggregation powered by two LAN ports helps increase connection speeds beyond the limits of a single network cable or port.
