Synology® announces dual-controller array, SA3200D

Bellevue, Washington—January 30, 2020—Synology America Corp. today announced the dual controller storage array system, SA3200D. Delivering maximum system availability in a single device, SA3200D joins the Synology SA family of scalable and high-performance storage systems, which are built to simplify and centralize data management. Dual storage controllers provide automatic failover protection, while the hot-swappable architecture ensures business-critical services are up and running at all times. The shared storage design and up to 500 TB¹ of scalable storage also help to reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO). 

"Businesses are looking for on-premises data management solutions due to data privacy concerns, but at the same time they're expecting the ease of use and reliability of public clouds," said Jason Fan, Product Manager at Synology Inc. "Synology has invested heavily into both the hardware and software components powering the SA3200D to achieve maximum system uptime in a single easy to deploy package."

Maximize service uptime, minimize disruptions

• Real-Time Protection – Simplify system operations and data management with comprehensive tools designed for businesses to safeguard their data. With built-in software like Synology High Availability, SA3200D actively monitors network status and critical file services, and once a controller module is unavailable, the system will fail over automatically within one minute to minimize system downtime and ensure service continuity.
  
  
• Fully certified virtualization solution - Synology SA3200D provides a centralized virtualization storage solution with VMware^® vSphere™, Microsoft^® Hyper-V^®, Citrix^® XenServer™, and OpenStack Cinder. IT administrators can efficiently manage virtualized workloads from one single console or restore data almost instantly with no additional license fees required.
  
  
• Synology Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) - an intuitive hypervisor software application administrator that easily sets up virtual machines and runs various operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and Virtual DSM. VMM allows each virtual machine to be fully protected with features that allow the ability to create instant snapshots, replications, clones, and restorations, at no additional cost.
