High-speed data transfer and hardware encryption engine

Link Aggregation improves connection speeds beyond the limits of a single network cable or port.

Easy installation, hassle-free maintenance

Easy installation and hot-swappable disk support ensures easy maintenance and continuous service uptime should a disk need replacement. In addition, DS416 incorporates a passive cooling design to reduce dependency on the dedicated processor cooling fan, thus mitigating any critical point of failure.
