Synology Network Attached Storage FS3600 24bay FlashStation(Diskless)

Fast and scalable all-flash NAS

FS3600 is a 24-bay all-flash Synology NAS for enterprise use that boosts the performance of I/O sensitive applications, such as databases, virtual machines, or online transaction processing (OLTP). Featuring a 12-core CPU and high-speed network connection, FS3600 delivers over 195,000 iSCSI 4K random write IOPS1 to satisfy enterprise demand for high-speed infrastructure.

Fully certified storage virtualization solutions

Synology iSCSI storage fully supports most virtualization solutions to enhance work efficiency with easy management interface. VMware vSphere 6 and VAAI integration helps offload storage operations and optimizes computation efficiency. Windows Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) speeds up data transfer and migration rate. OpenStack Cinder support turns your Synology NAS into a block-based storage component.

Real-time collaboration on your private cloud

Synology Office is a collaboration package combining the convenience and usability of public clouds with the data privacy and security guaranteed by private clouds. It allows you to work seamlessly together on documents and spreadsheets in a protected environment.

Next-generation file system for better data protection

Notes
Regarding data concerning tests with RAM expansion, all memory slots are installed with the maximum capacity of supported RAM.
During testing, the maximum number of SSDs supported by this model is installed in a RAID 5 configuration.
The testing standard was based on the maximum number of concurrent connections supported by this model. During the testing, 25% of the connections were used to transfer files concurrently. The transfer process guaranteed that the connections were not interrupted, the minimum transfer speed was not guaranteed.
