Synology today announced the launch of the RackStation RS2825RP+, a powerful 3U 16-bay storage system engineered to meet the growing data management demands of small and medium-sized businesses. With redundant power supplies, flexible scalability, and built-in data protection, the RS2825RP+ is ideal for central file storage, endpoint and server backup, surveillance management, and other business-critical workloads.

“The RS2825RP+ is designed to deliver dependable performance, scalability, and resilience—without compromising affordability,” said Peggy Weng, Product Manager at Synology. “It’s a versatile solution that helps organizations stay agile, secure, and always online.”

Solid performance for business needs
The RS2825RP+ delivers impressive sequential read/write speeds of up to 3,519/1,790 MB/s, enabling fast file sharing, syncing, and backups across office environments. It supports up to 560 TB of raw storage when expanded with the Synology RX1225RP, making it suitable for data-intensive applications and growing storage needs.

The RS2825RP+ is engineered as a full-featured system to deliver consistent performance and reliability with Synology hard drives. It follows a carefully curated drive compatibility framework, backed by over 7,000 hours of rigorous testing. To ensure optimal integration and long-term dependability, DSM on the RS2825RP+ requires compatible hard drives for installation.
