Hot on the heals of the new five-bay DS1513+, Synology America Corp. is pleased to introduce the DS1813+, the latest high-capacity, eight-bay, network attached storage (NAS). Designed for increased performance, reliability, and ease of use, the DS1813+ is an excellent addition to a creative workflow; by building on a centralized resource for accessing, editing, and sharing data.

The DS1813+ provides eight screw-less drive bays, which support both 3.5" and 2.5" mechanical or SSDs. That equates to roughly 32TB of raw storage capacity in the head-unit alone for creative pros to start with. By adding two DX513 expansion units, the DS1813+ can be grown out to 18 total bays, offering up to 72TB of raw data and your choice of either Synology Hybrid RAID (SHR) or classic RAID.

The DS1813+ comes with four Gigabit NICs, which bring powerful enterprise storage options like Synology High Availability, which helps to minimize downtime in the event of node failure by failing over to a mirrored DS1813+.
