Synology FlashStation FS200T 6-bay all-flash NAS-server Intel Celeron J4125 4GB DDR4

The Synology FlashStation FS200T is a compact 6-bay all-flash NAS designed for small and medium businesses that demand low-latency, high-throughput shared storage. Powered by an Intel Celeron J4125 quad-core processor and 4 GB of DDR4 memory, it leverages Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM) for enterprise-grade data management in a desktop-friendly form factor. Its six 2.5-inch bays accept SATA SSDs exclusively, delivering consistent flash performance without the noise and heat of spinning drives.

Advantages

The FS200T combines dual-port networking — one Gigabit Ethernet and one 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet — with full iSCSI support, making it ideal for block-level storage workloads such as virtual machine datastores and database hosting. RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, and JBOD are supported, giving administrators flexible data protection options. Two USB 3.0 ports enable external drive connectivity or direct UPS management, and the Synology DSM software ecosystem provides snapshots, cloud sync, active backup, and centralized user management out of the box.

Suitable for

• Small business shared storage and file server consolidation
• Virtual machine datastore using iSCSI block-level access
• Low-latency database hosting requiring all-flash performance
• Workgroup backup with Synology Active Backup for Business

How to use

Install compatible 2.5-inch SATA SSDs into the six drive bays, connect the FS200T to your network via the provided Ethernet ports, and power on the unit. Use Synology's web-based DSM wizard to initialise drives, select a RAID level, create shared folders, and configure user accounts. For iSCSI workloads, create LUNs through DSM's Storage Manager and map them to your VMware, Hyper-V, or Linux hosts.

Recommendations

Use enterprise-grade 2.5-inch SATA SSDs with a sustained write endurance rating and enable the 2.5GbE port as your primary data path to maximise throughput; reserve the GbE port for management traffic or link failover to ensure uninterrupted access during maintenance.
