Features:

Dedicated local backup solution

The Synology DX525 provides a dedicated local backup solution for your Synology DiskStation. When configured as a separate volume, it safeguards data on its local disks in case of system failure.


Online volume expansion

Managed through the host NAS's DiskStation Manager (DSM), the DX525's additional bays are immediately available upon connection. On-the-fly volume expansion ensures uninterrupted service and storage expansion on the host.


Rapid Deployment

Handle both scheduled storage upgrades and sudden demands with ease. With plug-and-play compatibility and support for hot-swapping drives, the DX525 is ready to use as soon as it’s connected to the host device, allowing for drive installation without powering down the system. Online volume expansion means that volumes can added or expanded without service interruptions.
