High Performance
The Synology DS212+ is designed for business users who require a reliable 
storage solution and demand high-performance for file sharing. The 
Synology DS212+ delivers an average 109 MB/sec reading and 56 MB/sec 
writing speeds under RAID 1 configuration in a Windows® environment.
Coming with USB 3.0 support which offers transmission speeds of up to 
5 Gbps, namely 10 times faster than USB 2.0, DS212+ takes less time for 
data transfer for external hard drives and consumes less power. In addition, 
hot-swappable drives make it easier for maintenance and hard drive 
replacement. 
Fit to Business Environment 
Comprehensive network protocol support assures seamless file sharing 
across Windows®, Mac®, and Linux® platforms. Windows® ADS and LDAP 
integration allows the Synology DS212+ to quickly and easily fit in an 
existing business network environment with no need to recreate user 
accounts. Windows® ACL support provides much finer-grained access 
control and efficient privilege settings, allowing users to enjoy native 
Windows experience.
Internet file access is simplified by the encrypted FTP server and the web-
based File Browser. HTTPS, the built-in firewall, and IP auto-block support 
ensure file sharing over the Internet is protected at a high security level.
Rich Office Applications
Synology DS212+ runs on the renowned operating system, Synology 
DiskStation Manager, offering applications and features designed 
specifically for SMBs. Directory Server package turns Synology DS212+ 
into an LDAP-based directory server which is capable of centralizing the 
management and authentication of user accounts for different applications, 
therefore enhancing network security and reducing management costs. 
Syslog Server is an add-on package that turns your Synology DS212+ into a 
system log server, centralizing logs from multiple servers to your DS212+ to 
provide higher log preservation capability, server status transparency and 
help trouble shooting efficiency against multiple servers.
The built-in mail server offers a professional mail service and the USB 
printer sharing capability minimizes businesses’ cost by sharing printing 
resources throughout the office. VPN Server package offers an easy VPN 
solution that turns your DS212+ into a VPN server, providing a secure way 
of connecting to a private LAN at a remote location.
Complete Backup Solutions
A backup wizard is provided for backing up data from DS212+ to another 
Synology DiskStation or any rsync server via an encrypted connection, or 
to an external hard drive via USB 3.0 or eSATA connection. The wizard also 
makes it easy to back up DiskStation data to the cloud via Amazon® S3. 
In addition, users can back up and restore DiskStation shared folders in 
multiple versions using Synology Time Backup package.
Shared Folder Sync allows users to synchronize a specific folder from 
Synology DS212+ to another DiskStation– a server-to-client backup 
mechanism that takes place whenever something is changed on the 
server side. Users will be able to share documents within their local office 
seamlessly and safely with encrypted connection. When your DiskStation is 
down, you will be able to have an immediate backup running in no time.
Peace of Mind with Data Encryption
The Synology DS212+ is equipped with an encryption engine which 
offloads the encryption calculation task away from the main CPU, helping 
to improve file transfer speeds of the DiskStation. 
Data protection is an important matter for businesses of all sizes. High-end 
features previously available only on enterprise level hardware are now 
accessible via Synology DS212+ to small and medium-sized businesses. 
DS212+ provides share-level AES 256-bit encryption to aid in the 
prevention of unauthorized access attempts to the hard drives.
Energy Efficient with Cool and Quiet Design 
Synology DS212+ is designed with energy efficiency in mind. Not only 
does it provide a 92x92 mm fan and the smart airflow to keep the system 
running cool 24/7, its noise dampening design makes it really quiet 
compared to PC counterparts. The support of Wake on LAN/WAN, multiple 
scheduled power on/off and hard drive hibernation can further reduce 
power consumption and operation cost.
All Synology products are produced with RoHS compliant parts and 
packed with recyclable packing materials. Synology acknowledges 
the responsibility as a global citizen to continually work to reduce the 
environmental impact of every product produced.
