Synology Announces The DS1513+

Image
Here's another Synology in 2 weeks! Say hello to the DS1513+,  a 5 bay NAS aimed at the business. What makes this NAS the NAS you want for your business? Besides also running DSM 4.2, which is awesome, it also has: 4 Gigabit ports supporting MPIO, iSCSI, link aggregation, and node redundancy within a virtual storage environment. Support for VMware vSphere 5.1 with VAAI Support, Microsoft Hyper-V, and Citrix XenCenter, which considering I have played with most of these configurations, makes me happy. New Screw-less drive bays, which means I no longer have to find my screwdriver, which does get lost.... a lot! It has an estimated MSRP of $879.99. Also it will NOT replace DS1512+, but share shelf space with it, in case you don't need 4 Gigabit ports.. But lets be honest, you know you want all 4 network ports! Read the full PR after the break!
