Synology Inc. RS826+ rackmount NAS 32GB RAM 1.6TB cache 80TB (4 x 20TB) drives

1U rackmount NAS for edge and remote offices

The Synology RS826+ is a compact 1U rackmount NAS built for edge locations, remote offices, and growing business storage environments. It arrives fully assembled and tested with an AMD Ryzen V1500B four-core, eight-thread processor running at 2.2 GHz and 32GB DDR4 ECC memory installed. Four drive bays hold the included Synology Plus NAS drives, creating a ready-to-deploy storage platform.

80TB raw capacity with 1.6TB enterprise cache

Four 20TB Synology Plus NAS drives provide 80TB of raw storage, complemented by 1.6TB of Synology Enterprise Cache across two 800GB modules. Under Synology test conditions the system delivers more than 2,000 MB/s sequential read and 1,300 MB/s sequential write, with four integrated 1GbE RJ-45 ports supporting Link Aggregation for load balancing and failover. A PCIe Gen3 slot allows 10GbE or 25GbE adapters to be added when network throughput demands exceed the onboard ports.

Replaces standalone file servers and older NAS units

This configuration replaces standalone file servers or older NAS appliances that lack integrated high-capacity drives, enterprise cache, and ECC memory in a 1U form factor. The jump is worth it when a business needs a pre-validated, rackmount solution that combines 80TB of storage, 1.6TB cache, and 32GB RAM out of the box, reducing deployment time and eliminating component-compatibility guesswork. Buyers who require more than four drive bays or native 10GbE ports without add-in cards should evaluate larger chassis models.
