This NAS with professional features satisfies all the productivity and efficiency requirements for small and medium-sized businesses. And it is offered at just a fraction of the price when compared to larger servers. With this NAS, you don't have to spend funds on acquisition, operation, and software. From Synology, you get everything you need at once and with easy, modest management. If you are still attracted by classic servers and their scalability, even this device can be expanded with a 5-drive DX517. The Synology DiskStation DS718+ data storage device will then be able to match up to the growth of data services.

Data Protection and Integrity with Btrfs
The next generation Btrfs file system has tools to prevent data corruption in the Synology DiskStation DS718+ data storage. The Btrfs volume stores two copies of the metadata and enables you to recover data in the event of damage to the hard drive or the occurrence of bad sectors. With an ordinary filesystem volume, error detection occurs from working with special tools. But Btrfs creates checksums during each read operation, so that an error will be revealed immediately and a remedy is issued automatically. Snapshot features allow you to make a copy of the entire shared folder or system. This way, in case of loss or database corruption due to operator error, you can quickly restore the data back to the time when the snapshot was taken.
Services at Hand with the Synology Data Storage Device
The Synology DiskStation DS718+ data storage device has an elegant DiskStation Manager (DSM) browser operating system. Its intuitive, organised environment can handle all service settings and it can even complement a variety of packages in order to adjust it exactly to your needs. To protect important data and other assets, DSM provides new management tools and security, so that Synology NAS can serve as a center networking strategy. With the introduction of Snapshot Replication service, DSM offers businesses nearly continuous data protection and replication to multiple sites for comprehensive protection. The Synology Hyper Backup can now perform backups in multiple versions to all kinds of destinations.
