Robust Data Protection with Btrfs

DS1821+ supports a Btrfs file system optimized by Synology to offer both high reliability and high performance. Btrfs supports advanced storage technologies that meet the needs of modern business:

• Advanced snapshot technology provides schedulable and near-instantaneous data protection of shared folders and LUNs
• File and folder level data restoration offers users who wish to restore only a specific file or folder more flexibility
• Flexible Shared Folders and user quota system provides comprehensive quota control for all user accounts and shared folders
• File self-healing allows Btrfs file systems to autodetect corrupted files using mirrored metadata and to recover broken data using RAID configurations
• Inline compression compresses data before writing it to the drive, to optimize storage use and reduce write commands to the drives
