Volume Expansion & Backup
When running out of the hard drive capacity on DS2411+/DS3611xs, the DX1211 provides an easy
way to immediately scale capacity by additional 12 hard drives. The RAID volume on DS2411+/
DS3611xs can be expanded directly without having to reformat the existing hard drives, ensuring
the Synology DiskStation continues its service during the capacity expansion. When created
as an independent volume, the DX1211 provides an easy solution for backing up the Synology
DiskStations.
Reliable Plug-n-use Design
The Synology DX1211 securely connects to the DS2411+/DS3611xs via an Infiniband cable to
carry 12 Gb/s SATA signal for the maximum throughput. It allows the hard drives in the connected
Synology DX1211 to operate as they are the internal ones of DS2411+/DS3611xs, with no lag in data
retrieval.
Green & Easy to Manage
HDD hibernation or HDD Deep Sleep mode can be configured to take effect automatically when the
system has been inactive for a specified period of time. This not only saves energy but also extends
the lifespan of the hard disks.
Synology DX1211 is managed by DSM, no additional software installation is required.
