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.
