Excellent Price/Performance Ratio
Synology RS217 is an affordable and reliable solution for a small office or business.

Synology RS217 delivers an average of over 127.51 MB/s in writing speed under RAID 1 configuration in a Windows® environment, and over 210.87 MB/s in reading1 , making it one of the best values in 2-bay rackmount NAS devices available today.

Designed for reliability, RS217 comes with dual Gigabit LAN failover support to ensure continual network service in case of LAN failure. The hot-swappable drive tray design allows for easy installation and maintenance for both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch HDDs without any additional tools. The hard drive tray lock further secures your hard drives from unauthorized or accidental withdrawal. To ensure scalability, RS217 provides an eSATA and two USB 3.0 ports in the back, along with one USB 2.0 port on the front for convenient access.

Compact 12-inch Depth

Its compact size fits perfectly into a 2-position rack and wall mount rack without the need for an additional rail kit. It is also resilient enough to withstand an operating temperature of up to 50°C/122°F, offering high reliability under extreme conditions. The improved fan design keeps Synology RS217’s fan spinning at a very low speed, ensuring peace and quiet in the work environment at just 25.8dB(a) .

Comprehensive Office Applications

SpreadSheet allows you to create, edit and simultaneously collaborate on a spreadsheet with multiple users on any browser, and share it with a specific group of people effortlessly. VPN Server offers an easy VPN solution, providing a secure way of connecting to a private LAN from a remote location. RADIUS Server strengthens network security by overseeing wireless access authentication via the RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) networking protocol. Surveillance Station offers a centralized interface to manage IP cameras deployed in your office or home, allowing users traveling miles away to safeguard their personal environment by watching live views, recording events, and taking snapshots with a computer or iOS/Android device.

Cross-Platform File Sharing and Data Synchronization
Synology RS217 supports comprehensive network protocols, ensuring a seamless file sharing experience across Windows®, Mac®, and Linux® platforms. Windows AD and LDAP integration allow RS217 to fit quickly and effortlessly into any existing network environment without the necessity to recreate user accounts. Cloud Sync keeps your Dropbox, Google™ Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Baidu and Box storages in sync with your Synology NAS at home. The Cloud Station Suite allows you to sync files among multiple devices — Windows PC, Mac, Linux, iOS or Android™ tablets/phones — effortlessly keeping everything up-to-date. All file sharing over the Internet is protected at a high security level with the HTTPS, firewall, and IP auto-block mechanisms supported by RS217.

Easy and Smart Backup Solutions
With block-level incremental backup and cross-version deduplication, Synology Hyper Backup provides multi-version backup with optimized storage utilization and allows multiple backup destinations to local shared folders, external hard drives, network shared folders, rsync servers, and public cloud services. Hyper Backup Vault provides an overview of all the backup history and storage consumption of each backup task.

Anywhere/Anytime Availability
QuickConnect and EZ-Internet configure your RS217 to be accessed over the Internet with minimal effort. Multimedia content is easily accessible via Synology’s popular mobile apps like DS photo, DS audio, and DS video. Other apps, like DS get, DS file, and DS cloud, allow file download/access/synchronization from anywhere at anytime.

Energy Efficient and Easy Management Design
Synology RS217 is designed and developed with energy efficiency in mind. Compared with its other rackmount storage server counterparts, RS217 consumes only 21.25W in regular operation. The support of Wake on LAN/WAN and scheduled power on and off can further reduce power consumption and operation cost. HDD hibernation can be configured to take effect automatically when the system has been inactive for a specified period of time. This not only saves energy but also extends the lifespan of the hard disks.
