RackStation RS4021xs+
Enterprise NAS with built-in service continuity engineered for data-intensive applications.
Securing your business assets
The 16-bay RS4021xs+ provides solid data security and lightening-fast performance with over 234K 4K random read IOPS and 6,258 MB/s sequential read throughput1. Together with its 8-core processor, ECC memory, advanced snapshot technology, and built-in 10GbE connectivity, the RS4021xs+ can support large multi-user environments while handling data-intensive workloads.
Compute
Intel® Xeon® D-1541 8-core 2.1 GHz
Networking
Built-in dual-port 10GbE
Memory
16 GB ECC DDR4 Up to 64 GB
Scalability
Up to 40 drive bays with RX1217(RP)
Engineered for service continuity
The RS4021xs+ ensures mission-critical data is always available, enabling businesses to deliver the best results, even in the face of disaster.
Redundant power
Dual PSUs provide protection against a PSU failure or accidental cord removal while hot-swappable fans allow them to be replaced without powering down the system.
Maximize service availability
Synology High Availability (SHA) pairs two identical units together creating an active-passive cluster with minute-level failover.
Next-generation file system
Btrfs prevents data corruption and reduces maintenance overheads with advanced storage technologies and optimized snapshots.
Customize to suit
The RS4021xs+ includes two PCIe slots for performance, networking, and storage upgrades enabling it to adapt to any business environment2.
Double bandwidth
Upgrade network bandwidth in minutes by 2x or more with Synologys range of 10GbE NICs.
SSD cache
Boost read/write IOPS by up to 16 times by enabling SSD cache via our Synology M.2 NVMe adapter cards and SNV3000 Series SSDs or by installing one or more 2.5 SAT5200 SSDs.
Storage expansion
Quickly and easily scale up to 40 drives with two RX1217(RP) expansion units.
License-free data protection
Keep disaster at bay
Hyper Backup
A comprehensive backup and recovery solution for securing data stored on Synology servers. Backup data locally, to another Synology device, rsync server, or cloud-based storage such as Google Drive, Dropbox, S3-compatible destinations, and Synology C2. Deduplication4, integrity checks, and incremental transfer technology reduce bandwidth and storage used.
Snapshot Replication
Easily schedule flexible point-in-time backups of shared folders and iSCSI LUNs with an RPO as low as 5 minutes and recovery in seconds. Set up replication and failover to other Synology storage systems for fast RTOs and minimal service disruption.
Backup your entire IT infrastructure
Active Backup Suite
Enables administrators to easily backup the entire IT infrastructure to their NAS, including Windows & Linux workstations and servers, file servers, VMware and Hyper-V virtual machines, and Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace accounts. Backups benefit from deduplication, multiversioning, and optimizations to reduce bandwidth and storage used.
Storage for virtualization
Synology iSCSI storage supports mainstream virtualization solutions with an easy management interface to enhance usability. VMware vSphere 6.5 and VAAI integration helps offload storage operations. Windows Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) speeds up data transfer. OpenStack Cinder support turns your Synology NAS into a block-based storage component. Additionally, Synology Storage Console enables even more simplified storage provisioning and management options in VMware and Windows environments.
Complete surveillance solution
Synology Surveillance Station transforms the RS4021xs+ into a feature-packed Network Video Recorder solution. Support for up to 90 IP cameras5 and video analytics such as motion detection, no idle zone, foreign object detection, and anomaly detection cater to the most common surveillance scenarios.
- Secure and private : AES-256 encryption adds additional security to the locally-stored footage.
- Access from anywhere, anytime : Access recordings and live streams whenever you want using a web browser, desktop client, or the DS cam mobile app.
- Real-time alerts : Email, SMS, or push notifications alert you when incidents occur or predefined conditions are met.
Works best with Synology drives
Engineered to handle intensive 24/7 workloads, Synology drives consistently deliver top-grade performance.
