Award winning OS - DiskStation Manager
Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM) is a sleek, browser-based operating system
running on every DiskStation and RackStation, which makes managing your Synology
NAS a breeze. Featuring an intuitive user interface, DSM makes accessing and
sharing your data smarter and simpler. Synology's Package Center lets you
download and install useful add-on packages designed specifically for individual
or business needs, meaning you can enjoy more entertainment in your life or
better productivity at work.
Fit into business environments easily
With the support of Windows AD, LDAP, and Domain Trust, DS216+II enables
seamless account integration. The User Home feature can automatically create a
"home" folder for every user account to minimize the administrator's effort in
repeatedly creating "home" folders for all accounts. Windows ACL support on
DS216+II allows IT administrators to fine tune access controls and set up
privileges to files and folders on DS216+II through the familiar Windows user
interface. With compatibility for major protocols, DS216+II can eliminate server
configuration overhead and enhance IT administrators’ efficiency.
Ultimate file center
File Station is a fast and secure feature for sharing and managing your files
stored on DS216+II. Just drag-n-drop and upload data from Mac or PC. Advanced
filters make it easy to search for documents, photos, or videos. With built-in
FTP or email clients, DS216+II lets you organize and share files through an
advanced web application effortlessly. You can even share files and folders with
others by simply sending a link. Files can be reached on mobile devices via the
companion mobile app DS file. HTTPS, SSL/TLS encryption, and link expiry dates
also ensure file sharing over the Internet is highly secure.
The most compatible sharing
Enjoy seamless files sharing across Windows®, Mac®, and Linux® platforms as
DS216+II offers comprehensive network protocol support including FTP, SMB2, AFP,
NFS and WebDAV. With Windows AD and LDAP integration, DS216+II can fit
effortlessly into any existing network environment - there is no need for IT
administrators to maintain two sets of credentials. You also won't worry about
missing files with the Recycle Bin feature which is supported on AFP, CIFS, File
Station, and WebDAV. All files deleted in a shared folder will be automatically
moved into the Recycle Bin.
Effective backup solution
Synology DS216+II can serve as a centralized backup target. Whether you are a
Windows or Mac user, you can back up everything on your computer directly to
Synology NAS using Cloud Station Backup. Whenever you modify a file, the changes
are backed up to DS216+II automatically. Mac users also enjoy native Apple® Time
Machine support. You can also back up data from your DS216+II to another
DiskStation, rsync servers, external drives, or even Amazon® S3, Glacier cloud
service, Microsoft Azure, SFR, and hicloud. Synology Hyper Backup allows you to
schedule backup tasks and restore the server to any particular point in time,
while minimizing storage consumption and processing time by saving only the
specific data block that has been changed between versions.
Increase business productivity with cloud solutions
With comprehensive cloud solutions, DS216+II lets you create your own private
cloud easily. Cloud Station is the perfect package to sync files across multiple
devices. Files can be edited in offline mode and later synced to Cloud Station,
which keeps up to 32 historical versions, allowing you to restore a file back to
previous version or recover deleted files. With the mobile app DS cloud, any
change made to a file is automatically synced to your smartphones and tablets.
For distributed enterprises, Synology's 2-way sync between different
DiskStations ensures employees at different locations share the same information
in real-time. IT administrators can handpick individual folders that they want
to sync to different devices, manually or automatically based on file format and
size. Folders synced by Cloud Station can be encrypted on DSM — no one will be
able to access its content without your private key.
Secure your data
DS216+II offers advanced security measures to protect you from potential
security holes. Security Advisor analyzes system settings, password strength,
network preferences and removes any possible malware. AppArmor blocks malicious
programs from accessing unauthorized system resources. You can also customize
the trust level in Package Center to avoid installing packages from untrusted
sources, safeguarding your NAS from unknown or tampered files. In addition,
DS216+II provides other security add-ons, such as AES encryption, 2-Step
verification, IP block & allow list, Antivirus packages, firewall, and DoS
attack prevention.
Get mobility with our apps
Synology develops versatile mobile apps — DS note, DS audio, DS video, DS
photo, DS cloud, DS file, DS get and DS cam — allowing you to access and manage
the contents of your DS216+II with smartphones and tablets. QuickConnect brings
an easier network experience as it eliminates complicated router configuration
or port forwarding. With Synology mobile apps, your multimedia collection and
work files are always on the go.

consumes 7.40W in HDD Hibernation and 17.40W in access*. With special fan and
the smart airflow design, the DS216+II keeps the system running cool 24/7, while
its noise dampening design makes it quieter than PC counterparts. Synology
