Product description This Kit combines the Synology DiskStation DS918+ 4-Bay NAS Enclosure with four WD 10TB Red 5400 rpm SATA III 3.5" hard drives for a total storage capacity of 40TB. - Synology DiskStation DS918+ 4-Bay NAS Enclosure Built with a quad-core processor, an AES-NI hardware encryption engine, Btrfs file system support, and Cinema 4K video transcoding, the DiskStation DS918+ 4-Bay NAS Enclosure from Synology is a powerful and scalable system designed for growing small- and medium-sized businesses and IT enthusiasts. It provides fast encrypted and sequential file transfers and can transcode up to two channels of H.265/H.264 4K video simultaneously, and is well-suited for storing and sharing Ultra HD media content. It is equipped with four drive bays that are capable of natively supporting 3.5" SATA hard drives, as well as 2.5" SATA hard drives and SSDs for data storage, plus two M.2 2280 NVMe SSD slots for caching. Using its four drive bays, this NAS will allow you to store and share a large number of files, including videos, music, photos, and documents with up to 2048 user accounts and 1000 maximum concurrent connections.
The DS918+ runs on Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM) OS, which is a browser-based operating system which helps to simplify managing your Synology NAS.
