Flexible Network Connectivity
Two 2.5GbE RJ45 ports, expandable with 10/25GbE network cards and Fibre Channel adapters, provide maximum connectivity flexibility.

Storage Tiering
Automatic hot and cold data management increases storage ROI and improves data performance and availability.

Comprehensive Backup
Protect your IT infrastructure with license-free backup, replication, and recovery solutions.

A Robust Storage Server for Office Applications
The 8-bay RS1226+ server in a 2U form factor is designed for small and medium-sized businesses and branch offices looking to centralize their data management in a single system. Built-in data protection and easy hardware expansion make it an excellent choice for applications requiring reliable and cost-effective storage.

Consistent Performance
Sequential read/write performance exceeding 2300/1500 MB/s enables fast file sharing, synchronization, and backup for teams.

Flexible Storage Configuration
Support for all-flash and hybrid configurations allows SATA SSDs to be used as both storage and read/write cache to accelerate HDD volumes.

NVMe Acceleration Support
Two built-in M.2 slots allow SSDs to be used as cache without occupying drive bays.

Comprehensive Networking
Two built-in 2.5GbE RJ45 ports can be expanded with 10/25GbE network cards and Fibre Channel adapters via the PCIe 3.0 expansion slot.

Scalable Capacity
If needed, the system can be easily expanded to 12 drive bays with the Synology RX426 expansion unit.

Zero Downtime Management
Hot-swap drive trays and online volume management allow for management operations without shutting down the system.

Intelligent Storage Optimization
Synology Tiering automates data management across performance- and capacity-optimized storage tiers, ensuring reliable and efficient data storage. By moving infrequently accessed data to a more cost-effective storage tier, the solution improves resource efficiency and lowers storage costs. The RS1226+ can be configured as either hot (frequently accessed) or cold (infrequently accessed) storage according to organizational requirements.

Key Features

• Automatically migrate infrequently accessed data from local, high-performance storage to a remote, cold tier.
• Define tiering policies based on last access time, available capacity, or a pre-defined schedule. Maintaining full data availability: frequently accessed files are automatically restored to the fast storage tier.
• A central monitoring panel allows you to track folder status, data distribution, capacity utilization, and data tiering activity.
