Synology Adds a 6-Bay AMD Ryzen DS1621+ NAS to its lineup

Synology Adds a 6-Bay AMD Ryzen DS1621+ NAS to its lineup

Synology introduced the next generation 6-bay DiskStation NAS, the DS1621+, designed for high-performance data storage and management. A compact powerhouse, the DS1621+ enables content creators and businesses to store and protect large quantities of data effortlessly. The DS1621+ is by far the most powerful Plus series yet. Its quad-core AMD Ryzen processor features the next-generation "Zen" architecture, delivering over 2x more processing power.

"Our customers, more than ever, are relying on Synology storage solutions to store and directly utilize critical data, whether for business or personal use," said Hewitt Lee, Director of Synology Product Management Group. "DS1621+ is designed to be a versatile solution that empowers content creators and collectors by not only providing fast, reliable, and high-capacity storage, but also simplifying IT with effortless backups for PCs and virtual machines."

Its dual M.2 2280 slots allow NVMe SSD caching to boost performance by 20x or more for commonly accessed data. The DS1621+ also supports an optional 10 GbE NIC3 for faster network environments and more concurrent users.


Whether you are a content creator, IT administrator, or just someone with plenty of files to store, the DS1621+ provides 6 drive bays, with expansion up to 16 bays using expansion units for truly large file libraries. Support for ECC memory and data integrity features built into the heart of the operating system, DiskStation Manager (DSM), means your data is in good hands.

DSM comes with a variety of backup and restoration solutions that cover the most common situations. Snapshot Replication creates schedulable point-in-time recovery points, allowing easy ways to roll-back unintended file edits or even ransomware encryption.

For additional off-site protection, Synology Hyper Backup enables simple, schedulable protection to keep your data backed up to Synology NAS, Synology C2 cloud storage, and other public cloud providers.

The DS1621+ can also be used to protect data from other sources. Active Backup for Business allows centralized backup from external infrastructure such as PCs, virtual machines, and Google G Suite and Microsoft 365 SaaS.

Synology NAS is more than just storage. Utilizing DSM's application ecosystem, the possibilities for data management are endless.

Want to take back control of your data? Synology Drive transforms the DS1621+ into a private cloud, with no recurring fees. Share your files across LAN environments, multiple sites, and intelliversioning lets users jump back in time to recover older file versions. Clients are available for mobile, desktop, web and other Synology NAS, allowing you more ways to access your data.

Catalog your pictures and videos in new ways with Synology Moments. Using machine learning algorithms, facial recognition, and geotag information, Moments automatically groups photos by person, location, and subjects. Built with collaboration in mind, users can edit alone, or share photos with others, allowing them to edit together. The companion mobile app enables effortless photo and video backup from your mobile devices.

Availability

DS1621+ is available today from Synology resellers and partners globally, together with an option for up to 5-years warranty.

If we add that DSM 7.0 is a HUGE improvement (it'll be out soon), and that QNAP and ASUSTOR are still using old underpowered Celeron CPUs for their latest Home-Pro announcements...
I'd say that this would be the 1st time in ages that Synology has the upper hand on the HW part (generally it's only had it in the SW part).

This will kick QNAP and ASUSTOR in the nuts if it's priced as any other DS__20+/19+/etc.

Hopefully Synology does their whole DS__21+ lineup with Ryzen.

Personally can't wait for the "DS621Slim" to fill it up with the cheapest high capacity SSD drives I can find.

I've been looking to replace my DS1513+ for a bit now - this might be the one. Kind of curious why they didn't go with an APU though, having the decode capabilities for Plex would have been nice, although I guess it would have been a lot of work to support it.

Personally, I believe that whoever has money for a decent NAS like this one already has something at home that can reproduce videos, be it nVidia Shield, Chromecast, a small PC, a console, or the TV's own apps (my smartTV is fairly old and it has the Plex app, the Emby app... heck, it can probably be used with Kodi).

I'm fine with no APU taking into consideration that it brings double the CPU power (both on single and multi-core performance) and 2 to 4 times the maximum RAM capacity compared to the typical Celeron CPUs that these NAS bring on this price range.

This is not just the typical 1.1x-1.3x improvement compared to previous generations: it's actually a 1.5x to 4x on both CPU and RAM.

Quite impressive, Synology.

Why not build your own? It's cheaper and completely under your control.

I personally have an ARM-based server which didn't cost much at all, while being passively cooled and small enough to sit in plain sight without anyone really noticing it. As pointed out by heffeque, the remote devices connected to it are able to handle the transcoding, so that saves on processing power and expense for the server.
I run Nextcloud, which I've been a pretty big fan of so far. It's surprisingly powerful, though annoyingly, getting Collabora Office to work on ARM is a royal PITA at the moment.

I've been slowly trying to find as many web-based programs I can punt to that server to replace with locally installed applications, since that allows me to handle my workflow from any PC or from anywhere, with all my files on the same system.

Because it's significantly more work.
