. In addition to the default 4 Gigabit ports, dual 10GbE are 
supported with the add-on PCI Express x8 Gen2 Network Interface Card to 
maximize the system bandwidth. DS3612xs is able to bring you the ultra-
high performance that your data-intensive application demands on the 
storage system.
High Reliability & Availability
Reliable functioning of commercial systems is of paramount concern 
to business users that depending on these servers everyday. Synology 
DS3612xs is now introduced with the fanless CPU heatsink to prevent the 
single point of failure, with the CPU passive cooling technology DS3612xs 
achieves the high reliability system design. When system detects fan failure, 
the built-in redundancy mechanism will spin up the functional fan(s) to 
properly ventilate the system, and support continuous operations until 
the replacement fan arrives. Therefore, potential system damages are 
minimized and system availability is maximized.
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 DS3612xs will detect 
and correct errors that occur during data transmission. Supporting up to 
6GB ECC RAM, DS3612xs provides secure data protection and 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 DS3612xs 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 DS3612xs is nearing its limits, it can 
easily be expanded with Synology DX1211
2
. It is connected to DS3612xs 
via an Infiniband cable that carries 12 Gb/s SATA signal to ensure maximum 
throughput.
Management of the large storage space on DS3612xs 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 Storage and Virtualization Ready
Synology DS3612xs runs on the novel operating system, Synology 
DiskStation Manager (DSM), which integrates file-level and block-level 
storage in one unified storage system platform providing management 
simplicity to reduce your total cost of ownership.
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, DS3612xs 
provides a seamless storage solution for virtualization servers, such as 
VMware, Citrix, and Hyper-V. DS3612xs is also certified with the latest 
VMware vSphere® 5, supporting VMFS-5 and extended storage migration 
capability with better flexibility and higher performance in VMware 
virtualization platform.
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.
Full-featured Business Applications
The Synology DS3612xs offers applications and features designed 
specifically for large scale business. Windows ADS and LDAP integration 
allows DS3612xs to quickly and easily fit in an existing business network 
environment without recreating user accounts. Windows ACL support 
on DS3612xs provides much finer-grained access control and efficient 
privilege settings, allowing IT staffs to set up privileges to files and folders 
on DS3612xs through their familiar Windows user interface.
The built-in backup application is provided for backing up data in the 
DS3612xs to another Synology NAS, expansion unit, any rsync server via an 
encrypted transmission. It is even possible to back up from DS3612xs to the 
cloud with the Amazon® S3 support. Shared Folder Sync is also available in 
DSM for implementing disaster recovery plans. With Shared Folder Sync, 
DS3612xs is able to replicate data to another DiskStation within the Intranet 
or across the Internet, helping to reduce the risk of business interruption.
Energy Efficient Design
Synology DS3612xs is designed and developed with energy efficiency in 
mind. Compared with the average storage server counterparts, DS3612xs 
consumes a relatively low amount of power and have the hard drives 
hibernate when not in use.
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.
