Synology FS6400 Server 552.96 TB 2.1 GHz 32 GB Desktop Intel Xeon 800 W DDR4-SDRAM (FS6400)

The Synology FlashStation FS6400 is a highly reliable, high-performance all-flash server designed for applications that require intense input/output operations and low latency, such as multimedia post-production, virtual machines, online transaction processing, and databases. The FS6400 is supported by Synology's five-year limited warranty.

Unmatched in performance, the FS6400 is a 2U rackmount server tailored for tasks that demand high input/output efficiency and low latency. It houses two Intel Xeon Silver processors with Non-Uniform Memory Access optimization, 24 drive bays compatible with 2.5" SAS/SATA SSDs, and 32GB DDR4 ECC RDIMM. This configuration provides over 240,000 iSCSI 4K random write IOPS, making it ideal for multimedia post-production, virtual machines, online transaction processing, and database activities. The FS6400 includes two 10GBASE-T ports and supports optional network interface cards for fast data transfers. Its storage capacity can be expanded with Synology's expansion units RX1217sas/RX2417sas, allowing for up to 72 storage drives with flexible expandability. A five-year product warranty covers hardware replacement and technical support services, maximizing return on investment.

The FS6400 features the Btrfs file system, offering advanced storage technologies to fulfill modern business management needs. It includes advanced snapshot technology for schedulable, almost instant data protection of shared folders and iSCSI LUNs, file and folder-level data restoration for convenience, and a flexible shared folder and user quota system for comprehensive quota control. The Btrfs file system can auto-detect corrupted files and recover broken data with mirrored metadata, supporting RAID volumes like RAID1, 5, 6, 10, and Synology RAID F1.

This server comes equipped with enterprise-grade applications, managed by the innovative Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM). It supports Windows AD and LDAP for easy integration with existing business directory services, Windows ACL for detailed access control, and provides encrypted internet file access and sharing security through HTTPS, firewall, and IP auto-block. Application privileges can be controlled based on each account, user group, or IP address.

The Synology iSCSI storage system fully supports most virtualization solutions to enhance workflow efficiency. Integration with VMware vSphere 6.5 and VAAI offloads storage operations and optimizes computational efficiency. Windows Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) accelerates data transfer and migration, while OpenStack Cinder support enables block-based storage components. Synology Virtual Machine Manager extends the capabilities of the NAS, allowing setup and operation of various virtual machines, including Windows, Linux, and Virtual DSM. This flexibility helps test new software, isolate customer environments, and reduce hardware deployment and maintenance costs.

The FS6400 addresses concerns about reliability, availability, and disaster recovery with a range of features. Synology High Availability ensures seamless transitions between clustered servers in case of emergencies, keeping services online. Snapshot Replication offers schedulable, near-instantaneous data protection, ensuring safety and availability of business documents, virtual machines, and application data. Redundant power supplies, system fans, and network ports with failover support ensure continuous operation, while the high-reliability system design, including fanless CPU heat-sinks and passive cooling technology, avoids single points of failure. Power consumption is reduced, and error detection and correction capabilities during data transmission are provided through DDR4 ECC RDIMM.
