Synology FS6400, FS3400, SA3400 Rackmount and DS620slim Desktop NAS

Synology Inc. launched FS6400, FS3400, SA3400, and DS620slim, refining the product portfolio to resolve IT challenges from IO density, storage capacity, and physical dimensions of the server.

These models are successors to the existing ones with a name change in the product series to better distinguish among high-end rackmount servers.

“Synology renews the product portfolio for high-end models to offer more options tailored to demands from various business workloads,” said Jason Fan, product manager, Synology. “When it comes to data management, performance and capacity are two central concerns facing businesses. Therefore, we developed the FS and SA series to address these specific concerns from IT administration, taking data management to new levels of flexibility and efficiency. All these are to eliminate storage silos and enable businesses to realize the potential value of their important data.“
