Scalable Storage Server On-Demand
Synology RS2818RP+ is a 3U, 16-bay network-attached storage solution, providing large storage capacity for growing businesses. It can support up to 28 drives when connected to one Synology RX1217 or RX1217RP1 expansion unit. Storage capacity can be expanded according to your business needs with minimal effort. It is ideal to serve as an centralized backup target, a file server or a hub-and-spoke backup target for distributed businesses.

RS2818RP+ is equipped with a quad-core processor and 4GB DDR4 memory (expandable up to 64GB) . With Link Aggregation enabled, RS2818RP+ delivers outstanding sequential throughput performance at over 1,400 MB/s reading and 580 MB/s writing3 and the iSCSI random IOPS performance can reach over 38,100 in reading and 26,000 in writing

Btrfs: Next Generation Storage Efficiency
RS2818RP+ introduces the Btrfs file system, bringing the most advanced storage technologies to meet the management needs of modern businesses:

• Built-in data integrity check detects data and file system corruption with data and meta-data checksums and improves the overall stability.
• Flexible Shared Folder/User Quota System provides comprehensive quota control over all user accounts and shared folders.
• Advanced snapshot technology with customizable backup schedule allows up to 1,024 copies of shared folder backups in a minimum 5-minute interval without occupying huge storage capacity and system resources.
• File or folder level data restoration brings huge conveniences and saves time for users who wish to restore only a specific file or folder.
• File self-healing: Btrfs file system can auto-detect corrupted files with mirrored metadata, and recover broken data using the supported RAID volumes, which include RAID1, 5, 6, and 10.

Cross-Platform File Sharing and Data Synchronization
RS2818RP+ can serve as a centralized backup destination, providing large storage capacity with affordable cost of ownership. Large amount of data scattered on employees’ workstations can be easily backed up and synced to a centralized target on RS2818RP+. Cloud Sync keeps your Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Baidu, and Box storage in sync with RS2818RP+. Cloud Station Suite allows you to effortlessly sync files across multiple devices, including Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android or iOS mobile devices.

Effortless Virtualization Environment
Synology’s Virtual Machine Manager adds unlimited capabilities to your NAS. Set up and run various virtual machines, including Windows, Linux, and Virtual DSM so that you can test new software versions in a sandbox environment, isolate your customers’ machines, and increase the flexibility of your RS2818RP+ with reduced hardware deployment and maintenance costs.

Synology iSCSI storage fully supports most virtualization solutions to enhance work efficiency with a simple management interface. VMware vSphere™ 6.5 and VAAI integration helps offload storage operations and optimizes computation efficiency. Windows Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) speeds up data transfer and migration rates, while OpenStack Cinder support turns your Synology NAS into a block-based storage component.
