• Reliable design for immediate use: RX1217 securely connects to Synology RackStation servers via a high-bandwidth expansion cable, ensuring maximum data throughput and smooth operation - as if they were part of the RackStation's internal drives. The SATA 6Gb/s interface delivers high quality and exceptional data processing performance.

• Eco-friendly and easy to manage: Hibernation mode can be manually set to activate automatically when the system is inactive for a certain period of time. This not only saves energy, but also extends the life of hard disks. The RX1217 will also intelligently power on/off along with the connected RackStation, so no user intervention is required for efficient system operation.
