That performance note makes the 23% claim effectively useless since Synology is not naming the capacity nor drive they are using for comparison. Actual performance may vary depending on workload, testing methods, and how devices and software are configured. Performance testing was conducted by Synology using 12 drives on an SA3600, configured using RAID 5, against similar class drives (Enterprise) with IOMeter (64KB blocks). Here is the performance testing footnote: Indeed, Synology says the HAT5300 drives deliver up to “274MB/s sustained data transfer” and are up to 23% faster in sustained sequential read performance in demanding multi-user environments compared with other similar-class drives. As part of the offering, Synology says it has done some firmware work on the drives to help increase performance. There is an 8TB model at $239, a 12TB model at $349, and an upcoming 16TB model that does not have a price or release date yet. Instead, the new Synology HAT5300 series is effectively made from re-branded Toshiba drives. Synology is not manufacturing hard drives. That video is meant to be listed in the background. ![]() Video VersionĪlthough we do not normally do videos for news, we have been getting a lot of questions about this, so we have a video:Īs always, we suggest watching that in a YouTube tab. As part of the dual announcement, Synology is locking its new NAS units from using large hard drives from other vendors, instead only allowing its own hard drives to work in the units. ![]() Synology launched a trio of enterprise hard drives at 8TB, 12TB, and 16TB capacities along with a trio of “enterprise” NAS units.
