Synology DiskStation DS1823xs+ 8-Bay Desktop NAS

The Synology DiskStation DS1823xs+ is a high-performance 8-bay desktop NAS with an AMD Ryzen processor, 8GB ECC memory, built-in 10GbE, dual M.2 NVMe slots and expansion support for up to 18 drives.

Product Description

The Synology DiskStation DS1823xs+ is a powerful 8-bay network attached storage system designed for demanding business storage, backup, virtualisation and surveillance workloads.

It is powered by an AMD Ryzen V1780B processor with four cores, eight threads, a 3.35GHz base frequency and turbo speeds of up to 3.6GHz.

The system includes 8GB of DDR4 ECC SODIMM memory and supports expansion to a maximum of 32GB using compatible Synology memory modules.

Eight hot-swappable drive bays support compatible 3.5-inch SATA hard drives and 2.5-inch SATA solid-state drives.

Two built-in M.2 2280 NVMe slots can be used for compatible SSD caching or supported M.2 storage pools without occupying the front drive bays.

Storage capacity can be expanded from eight to eighteen SATA drives by connecting up to two optional Synology DX517 Expansion Units.

The DS1823xs+ includes one built-in 10GbE RJ-45 port, two additional Gigabit Ethernet ports and a dedicated out-of-band management port.

Out-of-band management allows authorised administrators to access selected hardware-management functions even when the main Synology DiskStation Manager interface is unavailable.

A PCIe Gen3 expansion slot supports selected compatible 10GbE, 25GbE and Fibre Channel interface cards.

Synology lists sequential performance of more than 3,100MB/s read and 2,600MB/s write in supported test configurations.

Synology DiskStation Manager provides tools for file sharing, backup, snapshots, collaboration, virtualisation, private-cloud storage and surveillance management.

Surveillance Station includes two default device licences and supports up to 75 compatible IP cameras, depending on the recording configuration and other active workloads.

The DS1823xs+ is supplied without storage drives, M.2 SSDs, memory upgrades, expansion units or optional PCIe cards.

Specifications

Compatibility Note

Please confirm that all storage drives, M.2 SSDs, memory modules, expansion units and PCIe cards are officially compatible with the Synology DS1823xs+ before ordering.

The DS1823xs+ supports:

• Up to eight compatible 3.5-inch SATA hard drives
• Up to eight compatible 2.5-inch SATA solid-state drives
• Up to two compatible M.2 2280 NVMe SSDs
• Up to two Synology DX517 Expansion Units
• Synology D4ES03-8G and D4ES03-16G memory modules
• Selected compatible 10GbE and 25GbE network cards
• Selected compatible Fibre Channel cards

The front SATA drive bays support hot-swapping when permitted by the current RAID and storage-pool condition. The M.2 slots do not support hot-swapping.

Synology Hybrid RAID is not listed as a supported RAID type for this model.

M.2 storage pools require compatible Synology-verified NVMe SSDs.

All installed memory modules must be identical and use the same model number in multi-module configurations.

A maximum single volume size above 108TB requires 32GB of installed memory and a supported storage configuration.

The available storage capacity will be lower than the total manufacturer-rated drive capacity because of RAID, formatting, system partitions and file-system data.

Actual performance depends on the installed drives, RAID configuration, memory, network equipment, PCIe cards, client hardware and active applications.

RAID helps protect against selected drive failures but does not replace an independent backup.
