Short Description
The Synology FX2421 is a 24-bay 2U expansion unit designed for compatible FlashStation systems that require significantly more high-performance solid-state storage.
Its 24 hot-swappable 2.5-inch bays, high-bandwidth SAS connectivity and redundant power supplies make it suitable for demanding all-flash enterprise environments.
Why Choose This Synology
Add 24 High-Performance Drive Bays
Each FX2421 provides substantial additional capacity for supported FlashStation systems.
Built for FlashStation Performance
The high-bandwidth expansion connection is designed to keep latency low and allow expansion drives to operate much like storage installed directly in the host FlashStation.
Redundant Power and Replaceable Fans
Redundant PSUs and modular system fans help protect service continuity and simplify hardware maintenance.
Hot-Swappable Storage
Drives can be installed or replaced without shutting down the expansion system.
Centralised DSM Management
The expansion unit is managed directly from the connected FlashStation.
