Synology today launched the DiskStation neo+ Series, comprising the DS1825neo+, DS1525neo+, DS925neo+, and DS725neo+. This new lineup introduces a more accessible memory configuration, allowing customers to easily balance performance and budget requirements.

"Desktop models remain at the heart of our NAS ecosystem," said Bie-I Chu, Executive Vice President of the Synology NAS Group. "As memory market dynamics shift, the neo+ Series reinforces our commitment to accessibility, giving customers the freedom to scale hardware according to their immediate budget and future growth." Built on the same platform as the DS Plus Series, the neo+ models feature 4 GB non-ECC DDR4 SODIMM memory as default, making them significantly more affordable upfront.

The lineup includes built-in M.2 slots for SSD caching, 2.5GbE ports, and storage expansion via the DX525 unit. The DS1825neo+ and DS1525neo+ feature PCIe 3.0 slots for optional 10GbE or 25GbE adapters. All models support existing ECC memory upgrades up to 32 GB. Powered by DSM, the series delivers comprehensive data sharing, synchronization, backup, and surveillance solutions including Synology Drive, Active Backup Suite, and Surveillance Station. The neo+ Series is now available globally.
