HAT3300 Why Synology drives? The Synology Plus series drives are designed to meet the reliability, durability and 24/7 storage performance requirements of Synology's small and medium enterprise storage systems. Drives are rigorously tested for validation, and firmware updates are a breeze with Synology DiskStation Manager for trouble-free operation. Reliability The Plus Series drives deliver a mean time between failure (MTBF) of 1 million hours and a workload rating of 180 TB per year, more than three times that of desktop drives. More than 300,000 hours of testing ensures smooth multi-user operation. Hassle-free firmware updates Get notified when firmware updates are available and seamlessly update drives from DSM's Storage Manager, eliminating the need to use third-party tools and remove drives to update firmware. Made for NAS servers All Plus series drives use conventional magnetic recording (CMR) for better performance, reliability, consistency and longer lifespan than standard shingled magnetic recording (SMR) drives.
