Synology® Launches the High Performance RS409, a Large Capacity 1U 4-Bay NAS Server for Corporate Workgroup Users
Synology® Inc. today launched the new Rack Station RS409, a 1U 4-bay NAS server with high performance, large capacity and rich business applications to help corporate workgroup users easily share and safeguard valuable data.
Taipei, Taiwan, July 16, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The RS409 is equipped with a 1.2 GHz CPU, 256MB DDRII RAM, two Gigabit LAN ports, two USB2.0 ports, one eSATA port, and supports up to 128 concurrent connections. The RS409 comes with four hot swappable disk trays, each supporting 2 TB SATA hard drive which is the largest capacity on the market, making its total volume up to 8 TB.
The storage capacity of the RS409 can be expanded to 8 hard drives and 16 TB by connecting the Synology RX4 via eSATA cable. The storage of RX4 will be available as an independent volume. The RX4 also features plug-n-use connectivity, hot-swappable HDD design and disk hibernation, providing affordable and easy-to-use backup solution.
"When it comes to business applications, hardware performance is crucial," said Edward Lin, marketing director of Synology Inc. "Our laboratory test results showed that under RAID 5 configurations, Windows upload speed of 2 GB file reaches 35 MBs/Sec, while download speed reaches 47 MBs/Sec."
The RS409 is shipped with the industry leading system software, Disk Station Manager 2.1, which provides Windows ADS integration, cross platform data sharing, RAID data protection, and rich business applications. Mail Station add-on enables the RS409 to be a mail server that supports Web mail, SMTP, POP3, and IMAP. Web Station allows users to host up to 30 websites on a single RS409. The RS409 supports two USB printers, and the Add Printer Wizard simplifies setup process with a wizard.
The highly anticipated Disk Station Manager 2.2, the successor to the DSM 2.1, is scheduled for beta release in July 2009 with the official version releasing in September 2009. The DSM 2.2 will include a system resource monitoring feature that allows administrators to monitor the CPU usage, memory usage, network flow and the volume usage of the RS409. In addition, iSCSI target support provides fast, flexible and seamless storage access. Built-in firewall allows the administrator to decide which services or IP addresses are allowed to access the RS409, auto block function protects the RS409 from being hostile attacked, and SNMP support allows remote monitoring the RS409. The DSM 2.2 firmware, will be a free upgrade for the RS409’s users.
