Synology RS1619xs+ iSCSI NAS: 24TB, Intel Xeon, 64GB RAM

The Synology RackStation RS1619xs+ is a high-performance iSCSI NAS server designed for robust enterprise and professional environments, offering a wide range of capabilities to support diverse server roles including backup, virtualization, file storage, email hosting, and domain control. This 1U rack-mountable device is built around an Intel Xeon D-1527 quad-core processor operating at 2.2GHz with 6MB of cache, ensuring efficient handling of demanding workloads. The system is equipped with 64GB of DDR4 PC4-17000 memory running at 2133MHz, providing ample capacity for multitasking and resource-intensive applications.

For storage solutions, the RS1619xs+ integrates a combination of ultra-fast solid-state drives and high-capacity hard disk drives. It features two 2TB SATA III M.2 SSDs totaling 4TB of flash storage, ideal for caching and accelerating frequently accessed data. In addition, the unit includes four 6TB 7.2K RPM SATA 3.5" hard drives configured in a RAID setup to provide up to 24TB of usable storage capacity for bulk data storage needs.

Network connectivity is extensive and versatile with four Gigabit Ethernet ports that support link aggregation and failover mechanisms to ensure continuous uptime and load balancing across network connections. The chassis also provides two USB 3.0 ports for direct device connectivity as well as an expansion port that allows for future scalability or additional peripheral integration.

The NAS runs on Synology DSM (DiskStation Manager) software, which offers a comprehensive suite of features including file access and sharing, data backup with deduplication and compression technologies, virtualization capabilities for managing virtual machines, collaboration tools such as Synology Drive, MailPlus, Chat, Calendar, Office, and Note Station applications, multimedia management functions, iSCSI target configuration options for block-level data access, domain controller services using Synology Directory Server roles.

Additionally included in the package is a sliding rail kit designed to facilitate easy installation into standard rack enclosures without requiring removal from the rack during maintenance or upgrades. It should be noted that while the NAS chassis arrives pre-packaged in a sealed box ready for deployment within the rack environment; internal components such as memory modules and hard drives are provided separately from the main unit and must be installed manually by the user upon setup.

With its combination of powerful processing capability paired with extensive I/O options along with flexible storage configurations via both SSDs and HDDs in RAID setups this Synology RackStation RS1619xs+ stands out as an ideal solution for organizations looking to deploy reliable centralized data management systems capable of supporting complex IT infrastructures ranging from small business operations to large enterprise deployments requiring advanced network services like virtualization hosting or secure file sharing across distributed teams globally.
