Interface Card to maximize the system bandwidth. The network ports 
with failover support combining with hot-swappable drives will ensure 
continual service uptime during drives replacement or unexpected 
LAN failure.
The ECC RAM module on DS3611xs will detect and correct errors 
that occur during data transmission. Supporting up to 8GB ECC RAM, 
DS3611xs provides secure data protection and ultra-high performance 
to meet the need of large scale businesses for a strong foundation to 
face mission-critical tasks.
Robust Scalability Up to 100 TB
Synology DS3611xs is also designed to grow with your business and 
provides the ability to seamlessly expand a single volume up to 100TB 
on the fly. When the storage capacity of DS3611xs is nearing its limits, 
it can easily be expanded with Synology DX1211

. It is connected to 
DS3611xs via an Infiniband cable that carries 12 Gb/s SATA signal to 
ensure maximum throughput.
Management of the large storage space on DS3611xs is simple and 
flexible. Multiple Volumes on RAID allows users to create more than 
one volume on a RAID structure, providing a flexible and efficient way 
to manage the storage across all hard drives. When the need for more 
space arises, the volume could be easily expanded without any service 
disruption.
Unified-Architecture and Virtualization Ready
Synology DS3611xs runs on the novel operating system, Synology 
DiskStation Manager (DSM), which integrates file-level and block-
level storage in one unified storage system. Comprehensive network 
protocol support (CIFS/SMB, AFP and NFS) assures seamless file sharing 
across Windows, Mac, and Linux platforms.
iSCSI is also supported as the ideal alternative to SAN solution for 
business. Affordable and cost-effective iSCSI allows large scale business 
to consolidate storage into data center storage arrays while providing 
hosts with the illusion of locally-attached disks. With the iSCSI support, 
DS3611xs provides a seamless storage solution for virtualization 
servers, such as VMware, Citrix, and Hyper-V.
Thin Provisioning is available for file-level iSCSI, enabling administrators 
to oversubscribe provision and then grow storage space as needed in 
safety. With Thin Provisioning, users are able to maximize the storage 
utilization to reduce the total cost of ownership for the storage system.
