Configure the DS1823xs+ to handle any workload. Easily add 1/10/25GbE or Fibre Channel ports and designate NVMe or SATA SSD volumes as read/write cache to boost HDD performance.

Simply faster

Experience faster file indexing in Synology Drive and higher sequential throughput.

    • 48% faster file indexing in Synology Drive.

    • 40% higher seq. throughput when using Encrypted Shared Folders.


Store, share, and protect

Manage all your documents, photos, and other files, back up applications and devices, and protect your physical assets with professional video surveillance.

Flexible file server

Use the DS1823xs+ as a central file repository and data sharing hub. Provide easy access to business data from PCs, phones, and other devices, and set up powerful cross-site syncing to empower collaboration between offices or branches.

Private cloud


A private cloud suite for file sharing
Empower your entire organisation with a streamlined ability to access, share, and sync data from anywhere.

Provide employees with access to corporate files through mobile apps, desktop clients, and a browser-based interface.

Set granular file and folder access and sharing permissions. Maintain a full overview of file activities and track file share settings changes with detailed records in the Synology Drive Admin Console.

Dependable and secure network storage
Use shared folders on your Synology device as reliable storage available from anywhere on your local network over all common protocols (SMB/NFS/WebDAV/FTP).

Protect your files against accidental changes and removal or even malware attacks with built-in snapshot technology and other backup options.

Cross-site syncing


Secure site-to site file and folder syncing
Make sure branches always have up-to-date copies of crucial documents and data available locally by syncing Synology systems one or two-way using Synology Drive Share Sync.

Have files updated across locations each time there is a change to efficiently keep all stakeholders on the same page.

Efficient cross-site syncing through the cloud
Boost syncing speeds, cut bandwidth use, and reduce your storage footprint by leveraging the powerful connectivity of Synology's data centers.

Synology Hybrid Share intelligently synchronizes data to Synology devices. Large or less frequently accessed files are stored on the cloud to reduce local storage requirements, while frequently used files are stored on local devices to provide users access at LAN speeds.

Backup repository

Back up files, folders, physical devices, VMs, and SaaS applications with free solutions, and protect your NAS with built-in technologies.

Back up all your devices


Centralize your backup and recovery solution
Consolidate and automate backup tasks for PCs, file servers, VMs, SaaS applications, and more with Active Backup Suite.
