The new Synology NAS lands in the high-end of the manufacturer and integrates a Ryzen 4-core to handle the traffic generated by the 6 storage bays.
The Synology DS 1621 + hits the high-end with no less than 6 bays of 3.5 “convertible to 2.5” . Being oriented for intensive and continuous use, the NAS incorporates 2 fans to maintain temperatures. In addition to the 6 main bays we also have two M.2 ports for storage units with NVMe, which multiplies still plus speed.
As standard we have the AMD Ryzen V 1500 B of 4 cores at 2.2 GHz and 4 GB of RAM , being able to install a maximum of 32 GB in double slot configuration. It has 4 GbE ports that support link aggregation , in addition to 3 USB 3.0 ports and two eSATA.
The 4-core AMD Ryzen with 4GB of RAM will manage all 6 SATA storage bays without issue
Looking ahead, the Synology DS 1621 + can add up to 16 bays using modules offered by the manufacturer (which can reach up to 108 TB in a single volume) plus 10 GbE NIC3 cards added separately.
This model comes with 3-year warranty and should begin to be seen in stores in the next few days, although Synology has not revealed the price. As usual, this NAS will come with all the benefits of the company’s own DSM operating system. Today’s is an improvement compared to the one launched in February this year, the DS 1520 +.

With 15 years ago I started to overclock my PC to get every extra FPS I could in games and scratch some milliseconds in SuperPi, while relentlessly posting about hardware on the Geeknetic forum as a user and reader. They were probably so fed up with continually reading me on the forum that I became part of the writing team, where I continue to report on the latest in technology. Astrophysics and PC games are the hobbies that, after hardware, cover most of my free time.
