Frequently asked questions about this product

Are drives included with the RS3621RPxs?
No, they are ordered separately. The twelve bays take 2.5" or 3.5" SATA drives. On a chassis of this size, drives account for a large share of the budget: cost them before you order, not after.
How far can the RS3621RPxs scale?
Up to 36 drives, by adding two RX1217RP or RX1217 expansion units, without major work on the existing setup. The base chassis is a twelve-bay 2U unit for a 19-inch rack.
What does the RS3621RPxs's redundant power supply protect against?
It covers two separate incidents: the failure of one power unit and the accidental removal of a power cord. The fans are also hot-swappable: they can be serviced without powering the system down.
What performance does the RS3621RPxs deliver?
4,718 MB/s sequential read and 189,098 IOPS 4K random read. The first figure describes large transfers, the second the ability to handle many small simultaneous requests — the latter is what matters for virtualisation.
What can go in the two PCIe slots?
A 10GbE network card, which can increase the unit's throughput up to fivefold through link aggregation, or an NVMe SSD cache via a Synology M.2 adapter card, rated as boosting read and write IOPS sixteenfold or more.
Does the RS3621RPxs offer a special RAID mode?
Yes, in addition to RAID 1, 5, 6 and 10, it supports RAID F1, designed for all-SSD volumes: it deliberately spreads wear unevenly so that the drives do not all reach the end of their life at the same time.
Which processor and memory power the RS3621RPxs?
A 6-core, 2.2 GHz Intel Xeon D-1531, backed by 8 GB of DDR4 ECC UDIMM, expandable to 64 GB. The Xeon and ECC are the two hallmarks of a NAS designed to host services, not just files.
Can this NAS host virtual machines?
Yes. Its iSCSI storage supports the main virtualisation solutions, with VMware vSphere and VAAI integration, Windows ODX to speed up transfers, and OpenStack Cinder for block storage.
How many cameras can the RS3621RPxs record?
Up to 75 IP cameras with Surveillance Station, with video analytics — motion, foreign object and anomaly detection. Footage stored locally is protected by AES-256 encryption.
Which backups can the RS3621RPxs handle?
Three licence-free tools: Hyper Backup to another Synology, an rsync server or cloud storage; Snapshot Replication, with restore points every 5 minutes; and Active Backup Suite, for Windows and Linux workstations, VMware, Hyper-V, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.
Is the Synology RS3621RPxs new and under warranty?
New, part number RS3621RPXS, in original Synology packaging. The invoice serves as the warranty document for 1 year. The datasheet lists all the specifications.
