Datasheet

Overview

The Synology RX1217 is a 12-bay rack-mountable expansion unit designed to seamlessly add capacity to a compatible Synology RackStation NAS. This diskless enclosure utilizes a high-bandwidth Infiniband cable for connection, allowing for instant volume expansion or the creation of separate backup volumes managed entirely through Synology's DSM software. It supports hot-swappable 3.5" and 2.5" SATA drives and features energy management settings synchronized with the main unit. User and editorial reviews consistently praise its reliability, plug-and-play simplicity, and zero performance lag when integrated into an existing Synology environment.

Technical Features

  • Reliable Connectivity: Connects via high-bandwidth Infiniband cable to the host RackStation, ensuring maximum data throughput with no performance lag
  • Drive Flexibility: Diskless enclosure supports 3.5" and 2.5" SATA HDDs and SSDs for flexible drive choices based on performance and capacity needs
  • Hot-Swappable Design: Drive bays are hot-swappable for quick installation or replacement without system downtime
  • Energy Efficiency: Features hibernation mode after inactivity to save energy and extend hard drive lifespan; powers on/off in sync with the RackStation
  • Integrated Management: Managed centrally through Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM) software on the main NAS unit
