Synology RackStation RS2423+ 12 Bay 2U Rackmount NAS with 10GbE Connectivity – RS2423+

Efficient High-Performance Storage for Small and Medium Businesses

The Synology RackStation RS2423+ is a robust 2U 12-bay rackmount NAS solution designed to centralize data management for businesses with expanding data needs. This model delivers exceptional performance upgrades over its predecessor, boasting 27% faster sequential read speeds and 26% faster sequential writes. With throughput reaching up to 3,500 MB/s read and 1,700 MB/s write, it handles data-intensive applications, heavy file sharing, and complex backup tasks with ease. It comes equipped with over 155,000 random read IOPS, making it a highly responsive choice for multi-user environments.

Built-in 10GbE Connectivity and Reliable Networking

To meet the demands of modern high-speed infrastructure, the RS2423+ includes a built-in 10GbE RJ-45 port alongside two Gigabit ports. These can be bonded using Link Aggregation to enable automatic network failover and load balancing, ensuring that your business stays online even during network interruptions. For enterprises requiring absolute service uptime, two units can be paired via Synology High Availability to create an active-passive server cluster, allowing for minute-level failover and maximum reliability for mission-critical services.

Flexible Expansion and Versatile Configurations

Adaptability is a core feature of the RS2423+. While starting with 12 drive bays, the system can scale up to 24 bays with the addition of a Synology RX1223RP expansion unit, providing up to 240 TB of raw storage capacity. A dedicated PCIe expansion slot allows users to further customize the unit by adding 10/25GbE SFP+/SFP28 network interface cards or M.2 NVMe SSD adapter cards to boost read/write IOPS through high-speed caching. This ensures the NAS can evolve alongside your business networking and performance requirements.

Comprehensive Backup and Secure Private Cloud

Beyond hardware, the RS2423+ serves as an all-in-one backup and collaboration hub. The Active Backup Suite provides license-free protection for up to 300 endpoints, including Windows, Mac, and Linux systems, as well as VMware and Hyper-V virtual machines. Synology Drive enables secure private cloud file access and real-time collaboration with Synology Office. For multi-site organizations, Hybrid Share technology optimizes bandwidth by caching frequently accessed files locally while keeping larger data sets securely in the cloud, bridging the gap between on-site speed and cloud-scale storage.

Smart Surveillance and Data Protection

The RS2423+ is an enterprise-grade Network Video Recorder (NVR) capable of managing up to 75 IP cameras through Synology Surveillance Station. It supports industry-standard AES-256 encryption and local storage to help businesses comply with data protection regulations. Advanced features like motion detection, foreign object detection, and anomaly alerts provide intelligent monitoring. With integrated Snapshot Replication, the system offers point-in-time data protection with a recovery point objective (RPO) as low as 5 minutes, ensuring that your business data is shielded from accidental deletion or sophisticated threats.
