Synology UC3200

Active iSCSI Server for Mission-Critical Environments
Designed for high-availability business environments, Synology UC3200 is the first Synology product with active architecture, offering non-disruptive iSCSI services. It provides resilient data protection solutions with a simplified management interface while maximizing service uptime for critical enterprise services. Synology UC3200 is backed by Synology’s 5-year limited warranty.

Extremely Reliable, Fairly Simple
Synology UC3200 is an affordable, yet highly reliable IP SAN solution for mission-critical environments. Underneath the 2U chassis are dual active controller nodes, each powered by an Intel Xeon D-1521 4-core processor and 8 GB DDR4 ECC UDIMM, expandable up to 64 GB. It delivers outstanding performance of over 143,000 4K Random Write IOPS and provides a streamlined user experience with the intuitive DSM UC operating system to simplify the learning process.
UC3200 allows you to start small and grow in the future. It holds up to 12 x 3.5/2.5 SASinterface drive slots by default, and the capacity can be further scaled up to 576 TB when connected with two RXD1219sas expansion units. It comes with single 10GbE and dual 1GbE RJ-45 ports per controller and supports 10GbE/25GbE network interface card expansion with PCIe 3.0, boosting network bandwidth with Link Aggregation.

Uncompromised System Stability and Reliability
The active-active controller design ensures the critical iSCSI services are highly available, maximizing system uptime for your important applications. The inter-connectivity through the high-speed NTB (NonTransparent Bridge) between the two controllers allows one controller to seamlessly take over the service when the other breaks down. In addition, Synology UC3200 syncs all cached data between the two controllers, avoiding data loss in case of controller failure before data is written into the harddisks. As the built-in SATA-DOM on each controller is solely used for running the operating system, separating system partition and data by different storage media optimizes system stability.

Rock-solid Data Protection
UC3200 supports the powerful data protection application: Snapshot Replication. It provides schedulable, near-instantaneous data protection for mission-critical environments. It supports up to 4,096 system-wide replications to offsite servers and local volumes, allowing for applicationaware snapshot protection and instant recovery of virtual machines in iSCSI LUNs in the event of a disaster.

Non-disruptive iSCSI Service for Virtualization
Synology UC3200 enhances work efficiency with a simple management interface. VMware vSphere 6.5 and VAAI integration helps offload storage operations and optimizes computational efficiency. Windows Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) speeds up data transfer and migration rates, while support for OpenStack Cinder transforms your Synology UC3200 into a block-based storage component.
Synology UC3200 is also fully compliant with the iSCSI industrial standard ALUA, allowing hosts to identify optimized paths to increase transfer performance and efficiency.

Powerful yet Intuitive Management
Powered by DSM UC operating system, UC3200 offers comprehensive functionalities while keeping the intuitive DSM experience to ease the learning curve. The simplified management interface allows you to manage the two controllers from a single management portal. The builtin monitor applications give the most updated status in real time and provide prompt notifications when important events occur, allowing IT admins to respond accordingly.
