With compatibility for major protocols, RS3617RPxs can eliminate server configuration overhead and enhance IT administrators’ efficiency.

Next-generation data protection and integrity
When dealing with large-scale data storage, businesses require a solution that offers reliable backup and prevents file corruption. With support for the next-generation Btrfs file system, RS3617RPxs ensures information is stored with a high level of data integrity, while providing flexible and efficient data protection tools.

  • Fast and efficient snapshots - Snapshots preserve the history of a shared folder allowing you to save up to 1024 backup copies for point-in-time recovery. Snapshots can be automatically captured up to every 5 minutes, without noticeably impacting system performance.
  • Metadata mirroring and survivability - Btrfs file system stores two copies of critical metadata on a volume, improving the availability and ensuring the integrity of your file system.
  • Corruption detection and correction - Btrfs generates checksums for data and metadata, and then verifies the checksums during each read process to ensure the integrity of the filesystem and files. If the file system discovers a mismatch, metadata will be repaired to keep file system consistent. In the meantime, corrupted files will be reported and logged.
  • Customizable quotas for shared folders - With Btrfs, you can specify a storage limit for each shared folder, making it possible to precisely control space consumption when multiple teams or departments save files on the same Synology NAS server.
