  • 12 drive bays scale raw capacity to 216 TB
  • Intel Xeon 6-core 2.2 GHz handles compute-intensive workloads
  • 8 GB DDR4 ECC memory expands to 64 GB across four slots
  • Dual PCIe slots add 10 GbE or NVMe cache
  • Redundant power supplies and hot-swap fans protect service continuity

12-Bay Rackmount NAS

The Synology RS3621RPxs is a 12-bay rackmount storage server built around an Intel Xeon D-1531 6-core processor running at 2.2 GHz with 8 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. It delivers up to 189,098 4K random read IOPS and 4,718 MB/s sequential read throughput for demanding business workloads. Dual redundant power supplies and hot-swappable fans protect against hardware failure.

Suits multi-user environments needing compute

This unit suits organisations that host multiple virtual machines, containers or heavy file-sharing services and require the reliability of redundant power and ECC memory. It is not suited for buyers who need more than 12 internal drive bays without adding an expansion unit. It is also not suited for deployments that require 10 GbE or NVMe caching without purchasing separate PCIe cards.

Sustained throughput with redundant safeguards

Under continuous load the system maintains high sequential and random read performance while the redundant power supplies keep services online if one unit fails. Hot-swappable fans can be replaced without powering down, preserving uptime during maintenance. The Btrfs file system adds data integrity checks that run during normal operation rather than only during scheduled scrubs.

Questions about this item

Which SATA drives must I supply to fill the 12 bays?

Only drives listed on the Synology compatibility list can create storage pools; 2.5" SAT5200 or SNV3500 SSDs are required for SSD cache

Can the four 1 GbE RJ-45 ports link directly to older 100 Mb switches?

Yes, each port auto-negotiates 10/100/1000 Mb so legacy 100 Mb gear will connect at its rated speed

How do I confirm the unit is delivering the rated 4,718 MB/s sequential read throughput?

Run a sequential read benchmark from a client over SMB or iSCSI and compare the measured throughput to the 4,718 MB/s specification
