Synology has announced the availability of the PAS7700, its first active-active, all-flash NVMe storage system. The system targets mission-critical enterprise workloads requiring high availability and continuous uptime.
The PAS7700 ships in a 4U chassis with 48 NVMe SSD bays and a dual-controller architecture, scaling up to 1.65 PB of raw capacity with support for up to seven expansion units. It supports NVMe-oF, iSCSI, Fibre Channel, SMB, and NFS protocols, and comes equipped with up to 2,048 GB of memory and 100GbE networking. Synology rates the system at up to 2 million IOPS at sub-millisecond latency and throughput up to 30 GB/s.
On the resilience side, the active-active architecture combines RAID triple-parity, synchronized in-memory write protection, IP failover, and protocol-level failover. Built-in data protection tools include Self-Encrypting Drives, Write-Once Read-Many storage, immutable snapshots, Snapshot Replication, and Hyper Backup.
The system also supports advanced deduplication to reduce storage consumption across large-scale workloads. Synology has confirmed upcoming support for its Tiering feature, which will automatically move cold data to lower-cost storage tiers based on customizable policies.
The PAS7700 is available globally through Synology’s distributor and partner network.
