DS2413+

Robust & Scalable With Optimized Server Reliability

Synology® DiskStation DS2413+ is a high performance NAS server scalable up to 24 drives for enterprise users, specifically designed for businesses that requires an efficient way to centralize data protection, simplify data management, and rapidly expand storage capacity with minimal time spent on setup and management.

  • 201.03 MB/sec Reading, 196.87 MB/sec Writing1
  • Scale up to 24 Drives with Synology DX1211
  • CPU Passive Cooling Technology & System Fan Redundancy
  • 2 LAN with Failover and Link Aggregation Support
  • Windows® ADS and ACL Support
  • VMware®, Citrix®, Hyper-V® compliance
  • Running on Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM)

Experience High Performance Data Throughput

With the Link Aggregation enabled, Synology DS2413+ delivers an average 201.03 MB/sec reading speed under RAID 5 configuration in a Windows environment, and 196.87 MB/sec writing1. Synology DS2413+ bring you the high performance that your data-intensive applications demand for a storage system, and offer the ability to scale the storage capacity.

High Reliability for Critical Business Applications

Businesses need a strong foundation to face mission-critical tasks. Synology DS2413+ delivers high data availability to ensure access when it’s needed. The 2 LAN with failover support and hot-swappable drives will ensure continual service uptime should the drives need replacement or the unexpected LAN failure.

CPU is the heart of any system, and DS2413+ incorporates a passive cooling structure to avoid the dependency of a dedicated processor cooling fan, and mitigate any critical point of failure. When system detects fan fails, the built-in redundancy mechanism will spin up the functional fan(s) to properly ventilate the system, and support continuous operations until the replacement fan arrives. Therefore, potential system damages are minimized and system availability is maximized.

Robust & Affordable Scalability Up to 96TB

When the storage capacity of the Synology DS2413+ is nearing its limits, it can easily be expanded by the Synology DX1211. The Synology DS2413+ securely connects to the Synology DX1211 with specially-designed connection cable which carries SATA signals to ensure maximum throughput. The Synology DX1211 can directly expand the existing storage on the Synology DS2413+ to a maximum 96TB capacity2.

iSCSI and Virtualization Ready

With the iSCSI support in DSM, the Synology DS2413+ provides a seamless storage solution for virtualization servers, such as VMware, Hyper-V, and Citrix. It is the ideal alternative to SAN solution for businesses. Affordable and cost-effective, iSCSI allows SMB users to consolidate storage into data center storage arrays while providing hosts with the illusion of locally-attached disks.

Fit to Business Environment

Windows ADS and LDAP integration allows the Synology DS2413+ to quickly and easily fit in an existing business network environment with no need to recreate users’ accounts on the Synology DS2413+. The User Home feature minimizes the administrator’s effort in creating a private shared folder for a large amount of users.

Windows ACL support on DS2413+ provides much finer-grained access control and efficient privilege settings, allowing IT staffs to set up privileges to files and folders on DS2413+ through their familiar Windows user interface. The privileges set on Windows ACL will be applied to all access entries, including AFP, FTP, File Station, NFS and WebDAV. The secure privilege offers IT staff peace of mind, no worries about any loopholes.

Full-featured Business Applications

Synology DiskStation DS2413+ runs on renowned multitasking operating system, the Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM). Offering a comprehensive list of business applications, the DS2413+ can be customized to run multiple applications of your choice to fulfill the requirement of your business environment. The DS2413+ replaces several pieces of traditional network hardware with rich features designed specifically for workgroups and offices such as antivirus, video surveillance, webmail, VPN, and LDAP directory services.

Applications are managed in the Package Center, an application portal that hosts applications as ready-to-use packages; to ensure high software integration as well as one-click-installation to eliminate guess work during installation. Additional approved 3rd party PHP web application such as content management, customer relationship management & e-Commerce system can be hosted on DS2413+ by using Web Station with support for PHP/MySQL® web content.

Energy Efficient Design

Synology DS2413+ is designed and developed with energy efficiency in mind. Compared with the average storage server counterparts, DS2413+ consumes a relatively low amount of power. 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.

All Synology products are produced with RoHS compliant parts and packed with recyclable packing materials. Synology acknowledges the responsibility as a global citizen to continually work to reduce the environmental impact of every product produced.
