From the manufacturer
Scalable performance that fits in any environment
What’s different?
With two bays and the ability to expand to seven, DS725+ is a popular choice for users who need reliable, mutli-user file sharing, efficient backup options, and work collaboration tools in a quiet, compact form factor.
At 17.9 dB(A), the sound level is quieter than a whisper and close to the ambient noise of a very still room or a quiet library at night.
Pair DS725+ with Synology RT6600ax or WRX560 to maximize 2.5GbE connectivity. Enjoy high-speed transfers and secure your network with VLANs, threat prevention and web filtering — all through a familiar Synology interface.
When SSD cache makes perfect sense
Utilize M.2 NVMe SSDs to create an SSD cache when your workload involves frequent access to small, random files or repeated read/write operations.
- Deploying multiple containers
- Scrolling through large photo collections
- Running a file server with relatively small files accessed concurrently
When you need more speed
Utilize SATA 2.5” SSDs for demanding workloads like databases to achieve fast response, low latency and quiet operation.
- Ensures consistent performance under heavy I/O loads
- Reduces latency for time‑sensitive applications
- Operates quietly, ideal for offices or workspaces where noise matters
- Built-in 2.5GbE port and over 276/224 MB/s sequential read/write
- Improve efficiency by adding SNV3000 or SNV5000 series M.2 SSDs without sacrificing a drive bay
- ECC RAM ensures error-free, reliable performance under heavy workloads
- Add an extra five drive bays at any time with the DX525 expansion unit
- Use built-in tools to back up data on PC, Macs, mobile and cloud services
- Deploy a hybrid cloud to scale storage capacity seamlessly via Synology C2 cloud
- Synchronize files across locations and devices automatically
