Designed for businesses and IT teams running Synology RackStation and enterprise arrays, it combines 7200 RPM operation with DSM firmware updates for dependable 24/7 storage.

Synology-tuned capacity with firmware updates through DSM.

Eliminating Compatibility Worries in Synology NAS

Recent Synology NAS models check drives against Synology’s compatibility list, and unlisted drives can trigger warnings or limit features. Even where third-party drives work, firmware issues are harder to resolve.

The Synology HAT5300 Enterprise Series 24TB removes that uncertainty. It is tested with Synology hardware and DSM, receives firmware updates through DSM and uses CMR recording for predictable rebuilds. At 24TB per drive, it delivers some of the highest capacity per bay available, so Synology NAS pools reach large usable sizes with fewer drives and less power per terabyte.

Full DSM Integration

Drive health, firmware updates and storage-pool management run inside Synology DSM, giving one interface for the whole storage stack.

Built for 24/7 Multi-Bay Operation

Rated for 550TB/year and 2.5 million hours MTBF, the drive is engineered for continuous operation in multi-bay Synology systems.
