Synology is on the go by the looks of it. Not just are they working on the latest DSM 7 OS version that should come out this spring/summer, but also are pushing their hardware elements further.
Last year we go new NVMe and SATA SSDs marking the beginning of Synology's attempt to enter the enterprise market.
Just a few weeks ago, they also announced their HDD lineup of drives with three capacity options.
Well, today, we got some more new hardware. More official info on this in the press release.
New SNV3000 series 800GB drives
Adding to their last year's 400GB drives, this time around we got new 800GB models that are as well as the existing drives covered by a 5y warranty.
All the technical specifications can be found in the SNV3000 datasheet.
The main "upgrade" to these new drives are performance and durability. New 800GB models have a Sequential Write (128KB, QD32) that is doubled then the 400GB one, up to 1GB/s while Random Write (4KB, QD256) has jumped from 40k IOPS to 70 000 IOPS, not bad at all.
Also Terabytes Written (TBW) on the new modules is almost 1PB (988TB).
Exclusively for the 3500-800GB (so the M.2 22110 model), there is also support for PLP (Power Loss Protection).
Not bad at all.
If that was not enough, we also got some new add-in cards in the range of 10 and even 25Gbe speed. Did I mention they were dual ports with support for aggregation? Yes, they are.
Dual-port E10G21-F2 and E25G21-F2
New dual-port network cards are here to bring even more speed to your NAS devices and are compatible with a range of units*. Both models are compatible with almost the exact NAS lineup with a few exceptions, so be sure to double-check it before you go and rush order that 25GbE one.
