Storage Capacity Expansion When the storage capacity on Synology FlashStation/RackStation reaches its limit, Synology Expansion Unit RX1217sas provides easy capacity expansion by adding 12 3.5"/2.5" SAS/SATA drives to the system. Synology RX1217sas can also be used as a dedicated local backup destination of Synology FlashStation/RackStation for comprehensive data protection.
Reliable Plug-n-Use Design Simply connect Synology RX1217sas to corresponding Synology FlashStation/ RackStation and it is ready to use. Drives in the connected Synology RX1217sas operate as though they were internal to the connected Synology NAS and can be managed directly by Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM), with no additional software installation required. Redundant power supply units of RX1217sas ensure continuous service uptime.
Green and Easy to Manage Award-winning Synology DSM provides an intuitive user interface for easy system management. Drive hibernation can be configured in DSM to take effect automatically when the system has been inactive for a period of time. This not only saves energy but also extends the lifespan of the installed drives.
