Product Description

Scalable On-Demand Storage Server
The RS2418+/RS2418RP+ is an ideal storage solution for small and medium-sized businesses with great flexibility in terms of expandable storage capacity, scalable memory, and support for optional high-speed NICs or M.2 SSD cache. It is perfect as a centralized file server, backup target for distributed enterprises, or backup target for employee workstations in a growing company.

Enhance your storage performance with easy-to-install expansion cards
Equipped with a PCIe 3.0 slot, the RS2418+ supports the installation of an M.2 SSD adapter card or a 10GbE NIC for high IOPS system caching and ultra-fast data transfer.

A next-generation file system for better data protection
The Btrfs file system uses advanced storage technologies and optimized snapshots to prevent data corruption and reduce maintenance costs. While ensuring a high level of data integrity, it also offers flexible and efficient data protection as well as recovery tools.

The best backup solution
The RS2418+ integrates several backup applications to protect your important data across all devices with an intuitive user interface and durable storage technologies.

Active Backup for Server
An agentless backup solution protects data from Windows and Linux servers via SMB and Rsync to reduce deployment and management costs.

Hyper Backup
Fully back up your data to a local shared folder, an external device, another Synology NAS, an rsync server, or public cloud to ensure data security.

Desktop Backup
Protect your PC with Cloud Station Backup. Effortlessly back up data stored on macOS to a Synology NAS using Time Machine.

Active Backup for Office 365/G Suite:
On-premises backup solution with a centralized dashboard. Optimize storage efficiency with block-level deduplication technology.

Fully certified storage virtualization solutions
Synology's iSCSI storage supports most virtualization solutions to enhance work efficiency with a simple management interface. Integration with VMware vSphere 6 and VAAI allows offloading storage operations and optimizing compute efficiency. Windows Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) accelerates data transfer and migration throughput. OpenStack Cinder supports your Synology NAS in a block-based storage component.

Digital asset protection
Equipped with Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM), the Synology NAS offers advanced security measures to protect against sudden data loss and all potential security vulnerabilities.

Security Advisor
Analyzes system settings, password strength, network preferences, and removes any potential malware.

AppArmor
A kernel-level enhancement that protects against unauthorized access to system resources by malicious programs.

256-bit AES Encryption
Encrypts shared folders and network data transmissions to protect data from unauthorized access.

Two-Step Verification
Prevent others from logging into your DSM by generating a one-time password (OTP) on your mobile device.

Trust Level
Customize the trust level in the Package Center to avoid installing packages from untrusted sources, protecting your NAS from unknown or altered package files.
