Dual core CPU with floating-point unit enhances productivity
DS214 delivers outstanding read/write performance with an average over 106.38 MB/sec writing speed under RAID 1 configuration in a Windows environment, and over 110.65 MB/sec reading.1 The built-in floating-point unit enhances the overall capability of the main CPU, and is particularly advantageous in speeding up thumbnail creation when uploading large amounts of photos or videos.
Hardware encryption engine enhances file transfer speeds
DS214 is equipped with an encryption engine which offloads encryption calculation tasks away from the main CPU. Thus, the CPU can be free for other important tasks. In addition, with the encryption engine, DS214 runs at an increased performance level when compared to a pure software encryption implementation
Easy hard drive installation
To ensure your data safety and convenience, the tool-less hard drive trays allow you to install 3.5" hard drives without a screwdriver. Additionally, DS214 supports hot-swappable hard drive trays, enabling instant and risk-free hard disk replacement.
