Synology RackStation RS1221RP+
A powerful storage solution for businesses and IT enthusiasts with redundancy and service continuity features

A compact design for space efficiency

The RS1221+ and its RX418 expansion units are designed to help you save space in compact deployments. At only 30 centimeters, half the length of a typical 2U unit, it fits perfectly snug onto 2-post or shallow rackmount enclosures. The RS1221RP+ with dual power supplies comes in at 38 cm, also fitting most shallow depth enclosures.

• Fits into shallow rackmount enclosures
• Easy-to-install on 2-post racks

Built for reliability

Redundant power
Reduce the chance that power disruptions on a single distribution channel or PDU causes data and service availability degradation.

Maximize service availability
When paired with another identical unit, Synology High Availability enables automatic minute-level failover between two clustered servers in the event of a server failure to minimize service downtime.

Data integrity and protection
ECC memory and the Btrfs file system bring higher reliability and snapshot capabilities to help prevent data corruption and simplify data protection.

Maximize data availability

Hyper Backup
A comprehensive backup and recovery solution for added data protection. Create backup destinations locally, on another Synology device, rsync servers, or cloud-based destinations, such as Google Drive, Dropbox, S3-compatible destinations, and Synology C2 Storage, a dedicated backup destination for Synology devices. Deduplication, integrity checks, and incremental transfer technology reduce bandwidth and storage use.

Snapshot Replication
Easily schedule flexible point-in-time backups of shared folders and LUNs with an RPO as low as 5 minutes and recovery in seconds. Set up replication and failover to other Synology storage systems for fast RTOs and minimal service disruption.

Protect your entire IT infrastructure

Protect your entire office with Active Backup
The Active Backup suite enables administrators to easily secure their entire IT infrastructure by backing up mission-critical data to their NAS, including Windows & Linux workstations and servers, file servers, VMware and Hyper-V virtual machines, and Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace accounts. Benefit from deduplication, multiversioning to quickly jump back in time, and additional data efficiency optimizations for reduced bandwidth and storage use.

Fully certified storage virtualization solutions

Synology iSCSI storage fully supports mainstream virtualization solutions to enhance work efficiency with an easy management interface. VMware vSphere 6 and VAAI integration helps offload storage operations. Windows Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) speeds up data transfer. OpenStack Cinder support turns your Synology NAS into a block-based storage component. Additionally Synology Storage Console enables even more simplified storage provisioning and management options in VMware and Windows environments.

We have you covered

RS1221+/RS1221RP+ is backed by Synology’s three-year hardware warranty. An optional two-year extended warranty that extends coverage to five years is available in select regions.
