Synology RS826RP+ AMD Ryzen V1500B 4-Bay Rackmount NAS 4GB DDR4 3.2TB Cache 24TB Drives

Compact 1U Rackmount NAS for Edge Workloads

The Synology RS826RP+ is a 1U rackmount network-attached storage server built for edge deployments and remote offices. It uses a quad-core AMD Ryzen V1500B processor at 2.2 GHz with 4GB of DDR4 memory. The unit ships fully assembled with four 6TB Synology Plus drives for 24TB raw capacity and two 1.6TB enterprise cache modules.

Suits Small Offices Needing Redundant Network Links

This system fits businesses that want four 1GbE ports for link aggregation and automatic failover in a shallow rack profile. Buyers who need 10GbE or 25GbE connectivity out of the box should look elsewhere because those adapters occupy the single PCIe Gen3 slot. It also does not serve workloads requiring more than four internal drive bays without adding the separate RX426 expansion unit.

Single PCIe Gen3 Slot Dictates Network Upgrade Path

The only internal expansion is one PCIe Gen3 slot, which accepts either a 10GbE adapter, a 25GbE adapter, an M.2 SSD adapter, or a combined M.2 and 10GbE card. Choosing a network card prevents adding M.2 cache, and choosing M.2 cache prevents adding faster Ethernet. This trade-off decides whether the RS826RP+ matches the target infrastructure.
