Overview

Synology Disk Station DS509+ offers PC server equivalent performance for efficient data sharing and backup. Its high performance coupled with sophisticated Synology Disk Station Manager 2.1 provides an ideal solution for cross platform sharing, secure server backup, Windows ADS integration, business mail server, and corporate surveillance. The plug-n-use Synology DX5 easily expands the DS509+'s storage capacity up to 10 hard drives on the fly.

Corporate IT Management

Synology Disk Station DS509+ supports various volume types, like basic, RAID 0/1/5/6, and RAID 5+Spare to fit users' needs. Advanced operations allow RAID expansion and RAID type changing to provide flexible management experience.

S.M.A.R.T. is a monitoring system for hard drives used to detect and report various attributes of reliability, helping to anticipate malfunctions.

UPnP support allows users to stream multimedia files with an UPnP Digital Media Adapter (DMA) on a stereo system or a TV-set. Sony PS3 and Microsoft Xbox360 are also supported.

The Link Aggregation feature provides share-loading and failover support for Synology Disk Station DS509+.

Affordable Scalability

When running out of the hard drive capacity on Synology Disk Station DS509+, users can expand more storage with Synology DX5. By attaching it to Synology Disk Station DS509+, the plug-n-use connectivity and eSATA 3.0 Gb/sec definition allow users to expand volume from Synology Disk Station DS509+. No firmware installation is needed.

Perfect Backup Solution

Synology Network Backup allows users to back up files from one to another Synology Disk Station or any rsync-compatible server, the Local Backup allows backups to external hard drives via USB or eSATA, both providing flexible scheduling options.

The Local Backup provides Synology Disk Station DS509+ with the ability to back up data to a shared folder or, to external USB or SATA hard drives.

Synology DX5 delivers a perfect backup solution for Synology Disk Station DS509+, too. By attaching it to Synology Disk Station DS509+, the plug-n-use connectivity and eSATA 3.0 Gb/sec definition allows users to create an independent volume on the DX5 as a good backup target. No firmware installation is needed.

Eco-Friendly

Synology Disk Station is designed and developed perpetually with the concept of energy saving. Compared with average PC counterparts, Synology Disk Station DS509+ consumes a relatively low amount of power and hibernates when not in use. This not only helps to save energy but also extends the lifespan of the hard disk.

Additionally, all Synology products are produced with RoHS compliant parts and packed with recyclable packing materials. Synology recognizes its responsibility as a global citizen and is continually working to reduce the environmental impact of the products we create.
