Synology is launching a new NAS aimed at SMEs and enthusiasts. The DS1019+ disc drive combines five HDD messages with two m.2 slots for an SSD cache.

With the new DiskStation DS1019+, Synology is committed to a combination of capacity and performance in a compact enclosure. The new NAS looks much the same as existing devices in the Synology portfolio. Just like the DS1517+, this NAS has five hard disk bays. These are equipped with a lock to limit unauthorized access to the drives. The two M.2 NVMe connections are new. This provides the NAS with compact SSDs for a super-fast SSD cache, without sacrificing a HDD Bay.

Under the hood is an Intel Celeron J3455 quad-core processor, flanked by 8 GB of RAM. According to Synology, the hardware itself is perfectly capable of transcoding and streaming a 4K video stream on the fly. This makes the NAS ideal for creative professionals who want easy access to their large multimedia files over the network.

Disk Station Manager

The NAS is also equipped with two Ethernet ports, a USB 3 connector at the back and one at the front, and a Sata expansion slot for those who are not satisfied with the five available bays. Like all other Synology Disk Drives and Rack Stations, it runs on the excellent Disk Sation Manager software, which comes with a host of features as standard in an easy-to-use package. Think of advanced backup software but also a built-in virtualization client.

The DiskStation DS1019+ is available immediately for approximately 750 euros including VAT. Discs and SSDs have to be purchased by yourself.
