PAS7700 debuts as Synology’s NVMe storage system for enterprises

According to Synology, PAS7700 features an active-active dual-controller architecture, ensuring non-disruptive operations across all layers — from storage media, memory, system, to network and protocols

Taiwan-based Synology, a maker of network-attached storage (NAS) appliances, has unveiled PAS7700, an active-active NVMe all-flash storage solution. Engineered to deliver uninterrupted services for enterprise mission-critical workloads, the storage device is scheduled for release in the second half of 2025.

“PAS7700 is the culmination of Synology’s 25 years of engineering experience in data management and storage,” said Kenneth Hsu, Director of the System Group at Synology. “By combining our deep software and hardware development expertise with close collaboration with partners and enterprise customers, we’ve engineered PAS7700 to deliver ultra-high performance at a price point previously unseen in the enterprise storage market.”

PAS7700 integrates two controllers and 48 NVMe SSD bays within a 4U chassis and can scale up to 1.65 PB of raw capacity with 7 additional expansion units, the company said. It supports a range of file and block protocols, including NVMe-oF, has a memory upgradeable to 2,048GB, and supports high-speed 100GbE networking.

According to Synology, PAS7700 features an active-active dual-controller architecture, ensuring non-disruptive operations across all layers — from storage media, memory, system, to network and protocols.

With security at its foundation, PAS7700 offers built-in 3-2-1-1 protection capabilities, including immutable snapshots, replication, off-site tiering and backup options.

Optimised for demanding workloads, PAS7700 leverages an end-to-end NVMe design to deliver millisecond-grade low latency and exceptional IOPS. It achieves up to 2 million IOPS and 30GB/s sequential throughput.

PAS7700 also supports Synology applications such as Synology Drive and Synology Office, increasing the maximum number of concurrent users by threefold compared to existing Synology product stacks. It enables enterprises to achieve primary storage-grade performance and reliability at the cost of mainstream storage.
