Notes:

2. Please consult our compatibility list before purchasing hard drives. For more details, please refer to this article.

3. Raw capacity calculated using 20 TB drives. Usable storage capacity may vary depending on drives used and RAID configuration. DS1525+ supports up to 15 drives with two Synology DX525, sold separately.

4. Performance figures are obtained through internal testing by Synology. Actual performance may vary depending on the testing environment, usage, and configuration. See performance charts for more information.

5. One 10GbE RJ-45 port can be added to the DS1525+ with Synology E10G22-T1-Mini Network Upgrade Module (sold separately).

6. This figure represents the recommended number of IP cameras operating at 1080p.

7. Synology Enterprise Series M.2 NVMe SSD drives can be installed through the built-in M.2 slots to enable SSD caching or create SSD storage pools. Drives are sold separately.Hardware Specifications

Notes
- Volumes over 108 TB require 32 GB of memory or more.
- Actual maximum storage pool and volume sizes depend on drive sizes used, the number of drive bays available, and the RAID configuration.
- Usable capacity for each volume will be lower than the maximum volume size and is dependent on the filesystem and the amount of system metadata stored.
- Creating M.2 storage pools requires the use of Synology-verified SSDs, which are rigorously tested under extreme temperature conditions. Thermal parameters for SSDs and NAS units are fine-tuned to ensure optimal management of thermal conditions under I/O-intensive environments. (Learn more)File System
