SINGAPORE -
Media OutReach Newswire
- 21 May 2026 – Synology today announced the general availability of
PAS7700, the company's first active-active, all flash NVMe storage
system. Built for mission-critical workloads, PAS7700 delivers
enterprise-grade performance, uninterrupted resilience, and optimized
operational efficiency.
As AI, data analytics, and virtualization platforms continue to reshape
how Singapore enterprises operate their IT infrastructure, storage is no
longer merely a place to keep data. It has become the foundation behind
core operational applications. As a result, organizations are placing
greater demands on access speed, service continuity, and long-term
operational stability. This is also why enterprises are increasingly
seeking high-performance storage platforms that can maintain reliable
operations over time.
"PAS7700 reflects Synology's 25+ years of experience in storage and our
close collaboration with enterprise customers to address evolving
requirements for high availability, performance, and scalability," said
Bie-i Chu, Executive Vice President of the Synology NAS Group. "After a
year of extensive real-world validation through our enterprise
proof-of-concept program, PAS7700 is field-proven to deliver high
reliability and performance, while helping customers lower total cost of
ownership (TCO)."
A Storage Platform for Mission-Critical Systems
PAS7700 is equipped with dual controllers and 48 NVMe SSD bays in a 4U
chassis, and can scale up to 1.65 PB of raw storage capacity with up to
seven expansion units. The system supports both file and block storage
and offers broad protocol support, including NVMe-oF, iSCSI, Fibre
Channel, SMB, and NFS.
With up to 2,048 GB of memory* and 100GbE networking, PAS7700 delivers
up to 2 million IOPS, latency of under 1 millisecond and sequential
throughput of up to 30 GB/s.
PAS7700 is designed for environments that require real-time data
processing, such as virtualization, databases and large-scale data
processing environments. It also targets performance-intensive and
always-on workloads such as VDI, EDA and AI.
In addition, the solution is well suited for organizations operating
data-intensive infrastructure in sectors such as data centers,
manufacturing, semiconductor design, game development, and healthcare.
These environments typically process large volumes of data concurrently
and require systems that can sustain consistent performance and
continuous service availability.
Designed to Minimize System Disruption
One of PAS7700's most notable strengths is its active-active
architecture, which enables both controllers to operate simultaneously
rather than relying on a traditional active-standby model. If one
controller or a network component fails, the system can continue
delivering services, significantly reducing the risk of business
disruption.
The system is built with multiple protection layers to ensure high
availability, including triple-parity RAID, mirrored write cache
protection, IP failover, and automatic failover mechanisms.
PAS7700 also includes Continuous Availability Manager that enables
enterprise IT teams to visually monitor the health status of each system
component and detect and address issues quickly before they affect
services.
Multi-Layer Data Protection for Enterprises
Synology places strong emphasis on enterprise data protection. PAS7700
supports Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs), providing hardware-level
protection without compromising system performance.
The system also supports WORM folders and immutable snapshots, allowing
snapshots to remain protected from unauthorized modification or deletion
after creation, thereby reducing the risk of tampering and unauthorized
data interference.
In addition, PAS7700 features Snapshot Replication and Hyper Backup that
enable enterprises to build multiple layers of backup and recovery
between production environments and secondary systems. This helps
strengthen cyber resilience and improve data recoverability in the event
of incidents or cyberattacks.
Lower Cost, Greater Efficiency
Beyond performance, Synology also addresses the challenge of optimizing
long-term storage investment for enterprises. As many businesses in
Singapore continue expanding their data infrastructure, virtual machines
and internal AI workloads, the cost of high-speed storage is exerting
increasing pressure on IT environments.
PAS7700 supports both inline and offline deduplication technologies to
help reduce unnecessary data usage and extend SSD lifespan. This
mechanism can significantly improve storage efficiency in large-scale
data environments.
In the near future, the system will also support Synology Tiering, which
automatically moves infrequently accessed data to high-capacity storage
systems. This helps free up high-speed NVMe resources for active
applications and hot data.
The entire platform runs on DSM Enterprise, Synology's operating system
developed specifically for enterprise storage, and is designed for
environments that require high performance while maintaining intuitive
management and operational simplicity.
PAS7700 is now available globally through Synology's network of partners and distributors.
