With Computex 2026 only days away, Synology today released their last year's announced 2.5" 6-bay successor to the DS620slim. Named the **FS200T** , this 2.5" **6-bay device** has advanced in the world of Synology, transitioning from a desktop DS series to the distinguished **FlashStation lineup**. Indeed, the smallest member of the entire portfolio is here to stay, now with a new name, category, and several upgrades. Synology FS6420 & FS3420 overviewFollowing the rollout of the RS XS+ models, these two new second-generation FS models deliver increased speed and performanceBLACKVOID.CLUBLuka Manestar 2026 FS lineup new 2U models ## : Prologue Starting in late 2024 and extending through mid-2025, Synology implemented several changes to its business practices and policies that were not well received by the general public, particularly among home and small business users. Specifically, we are referring to their HDD compatibility policy, known as the HCL 4.0, which was published on April 16th, 2025. New 2025 Synology disk compatibility policyNew 2025 Synology disk compatibility policy regarding disk support in upcoming new NAS modelsBLACKVOID.CLUBLuka Manestar Announcement of the new restrictive HCL 4.0 disk compatibility policy In short, the policy mandates the use of Synology-only drives for all new and upcoming X25 DS models, although some models are still accepting enterprise drives such as the HAT5300. As anticipated, the restricted drive compatibility over the following six months generated significant negative publicity in various forms until the release of DSM 7.3 in October 2025. DSM 7.3-81180 & 7.3.1-86003New #Synology #DSM 7.3 is here with some major changes! HCL 5.0 disk policy, as well as the beta of the new Synology Tiering feature!BLACKVOID.CLUBLuka Manestar DSM 7.3 introduced a new HDD HCL 5.0 disk compatibility policy The new HCL 5.0 largely reverted the previous restrictions, restoring full compatibility for all desktop X25 models with both Synology and third-party drives. However, it is important to note that there is no guarantee that Synology will not attempt to enforce similar policies again in the future, or that certain features* may not be supported when using non-Synology drives (as is already the case). For now, customers are free to use any drive size and brand within the desktop models as they prefer. ### *Compatible Synology drive benefits * Volume-wide deduplication (available with Synology SSDs) * Drive firmware updates throught DSM * Synology 1-stop techinical support The reason for revisiting these past policies in an article about the new FS200T model is straightforward. The FS200T is a successor to the DS620slim, sharing the same form factor with minimal hardware changes. Although the hardware remains largely similar, the name alone warrants a brief overview that could shed light on the future prospects of this form factor. ## : Intro From Synology's perspective, the new FS200T introduces several changes compared to its predecessor. Moving away from the DS (Disk Station) series and adopting an FS (Flash Station) vertical form factor, Synology aims to position this compact device as an all-flash solution from the outset. FS200T naming profile The previous DS620slim name clearly indicated it was a 6-bay model introduced in 2020, whereas the FS200T name now emphasises the CPU family and product generation, similar to the naming conventions used for the DP series. However, this clarification does not fully explain the initial prologue. The key reason is that users unfamiliar with the Synology compatibility list might not realise that the FS models are compatible with both Synology-branded drives and certain third-party options. Regardless of the updated HCL 5.0, the new FS200T is not compatible with any 2.5" SSD on the market, only with Synology-branded SAT5200 series. Notably, compared to its predecessor, the FS200T no longer supports 2.5" HDD drives, only SSDs. FS200T disk compatibility (May 2026)Official supported accessories - drives and RAM (May 2026)Synology at Computex 2025The 2025 Computex is soon here and #Synology will be there to present new hardware, software, and services.BLACKVOID.CLUBLuka Manestar At Computex 2025 Synology presented a lot of their new upcoming hardware including the current X25 segment ### :: Hardware overview From a hardware perspective, the new FS200T features some internal updates, but nothing substantial. Although the device was initially expected to be released in 2025, Synology decided to launch it this quarter. Despite expectations that some further refinements to its specifications might occur, no such changes have been made. The new FS200T - smallest and most compact Synology FlashStation > ## All-flash design for quiet operations at home or in compact workspaces The 6-bay FS200T continues to feature the announced **Intel Celeron J4125** quad-core CPU. This is an improvement over the DS620slim’s J3355, but as an FS series model, expectations were higher for a more capable processor. With the new profile naming, future generations may see more significant upgrades. Compared to the DS620slim’s two-core CPU and 2GB of DDR3 memory, the **FS200T offers a quad-core setup with 4GB of DDR4 RAM** , with an upgrade path to support up to 8GB of memory. FS200T - a 6-bay 2,5" SSD compact model from the front The FS200T preserves its compact size, with a depth of less than 18 cm, matching the external appearance of the DS620slim. It supports hot-swapping drives in all six bays. While the model is designed to operate silently and efficiently, the minimal noise—approximately 21 dB—originates solely from the single 80mm vent at the rear. > ## Miniature all-flash storage for enthusiasts The rear of the FS200T maintains the same port setup as previous models, featuring **dual USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and LAN ports**. The notable upgrade is the addition of a **2.5GbE port alongside the standard 1GbE port** , aligning with the configurations on models like the DS425+ and DS725+. Back view houses all available ports The FS200T's compact size makes it an excellent desktop solution or portable device. Its all-flash configuration minimises concerns about data damage during transport and makes it suitable for mobile use, such as in a mobile home. Its low heat output, minimal noise—around 21dB—and small form factor, combined with enhanced performance and improved network connectivity, position this NAS as a prime choice for home users, small office content creators, and enthusiasts. In terms of power consumption, it averages approximately 25.5W during regular use and about 19.06W with complete disk hibernation. Actual power use may vary depending on DSM services and packages, which can affect hibernation and sleep states. **Weighing 1.4 kg** , the FS200T ranks as the second heaviest in the X25 series, just above the DS225+ (1.3 kg) and below the DS725+ (1.5 kg). It does not feature M.2 NVMe slots, similar to other Synology models, and many competing units offer full NVMe configurations. However, its primary limiting factor is the upgraded 2.5GbE network interface. Even with an HDD setup, it's possible to saturate the 2.5GbE connection, especially with SSD or NVMe arrays. Synology chose to focus on a reliable, tested 2.5" SSD setup, which runs cooler and provides more storage at a lower cost. Synology Extended Warranty PlusSynology has introduced a new service for selected devices called extended warranty plus with up to 5 years of protection for your devices.BLACKVOID.CLUBLuka Manestar Extended Warranty Plus program The suggested retail price in the US is $499, translating to approximately €500 in most EU countries. Like other models in this class, the **FS200T includes a 3-year warranty** , with options for Extended Warranty Plus (EW201) in select markets, extending coverage up to 5 years. ## Sign up for free, today!

Last week, Synology rolled out three XS+ models from its RS lineup and simultaneously refreshed its popular FS segment with second-generation versions of its two existing 24-bay models. Same exact look as any other 2U rack-based Synology model Identical on the exterior except for minor differences on the rear panel, these 2U rack devices deliver substantial processing power and expansion capabilities through Gen4 x8 and x16 slots. While the XS+ RS models exclusively feature Intel Xeon-class processors, the FS lineup takes a different approach. The **FS3420 utilizes Intel processor** , whereas the **FS6420 is powered by AMD EPYC silicon**. FS6420/FS3420 with cover Starting with the FS6420 model, this 24-bay 2U rack-mounted NAS represents a significant generational leap over its predecessor, the FS6400, in both processing power and overall hardware configuration. The AMD EPYC 7303 processor, despite being released in 2021, marks a substantial upgrade from the aging Skylake-based Intel Xeon Silver 4110 from 2017. With 16 cores and 32 threads in a single-socket configuration, the FS6420 now **supports up to 1024 GB of RAM** across 16 slots using 64 GB modules—double the maximum capacity of its predecessor. The**standard configuration has also doubled from 32 GB to 64 GB**. While the EPYC's 155W TDP is double that of the older Skylake silicon, the performance gains justify the increased power consumption. The EPYC processor delivers higher clock speeds, superior instructions-per-cycle (IPC) efficiency thanks to its modern Zen 3 architecture, and demonstrates clear advantages in multi-threaded workloads. Overall, the 7303 offers superior value for compute-intensive applications and outperforms across most workloads. The FS3420, successor to the FS3400, shows more modest improvements. From a CPU perspective, the upgrade is incremental. Both generations use 2021 Ice Lake Intel Xeon processors. The **FS3420 upgrades from the D-1541 to the D-1739** , the same processor used in Synology's 2026 RS XS+ refreshed lineup. This change adds two cores and slightly increased L3 cache, while **expanding RAM capacity from 16 GB standard (128 GB maximum) to 32 GB** standard with support for up to 192 GB. FS6420/FS3420 with no decorative cover showing all 24 2.5" bays Both devices have received additional internal upgrades aligned with Synology's 2026 RS lineup refresh, primarily the **transition to PCIe 4.0**. The FS6420 benefits most notably with**dual full-length Gen4 x16 slots** , while the FS3420 adopts the same **dual Gen4 x8 slot configuration** found across the RS XS+ models. The widespread adoption of PCIe 4.0 across the RS and FS portfolios this year is significant, as it**enables potential GPU support** ,**** a development that could allow Synology to offer on-device LLM hosting capabilities through compatible graphics cards. The software foundation for this is already in place with the introduction of Synology AI Console earlier this year, positioning the hardware to leverage these capabilities as they become available. Synology AI Console#Synology #AIConsole beta is here. A new management tool for 3rd party AI tool integration into MailPlus and Office packages.BLACKVOID.CLUBLuka ManestarSynology AI Console 1.2The new 1.2 version of #Synology #AIConsole is here. It brings 3rd-party #openAI compatible API support, as well as de-identification of sensitive elements.BLACKVOID.CLUBLuka Manestar Both models feature a significantly cleaner rear panel layout, with notable connectivity changes. The 1GbE port array has been removed entirely, and **10GbE connectivity is now limited to two interfaces**. The legacy serial port has been replaced with a dedicated 1GbE management port, while older USB 3.0 ports have been **upgraded to USB 3.2 Gen 1** specification, offering 5 Gbps speeds. FS6420 back side with a lot less ports than the previous generationsFS3420 looks nearly identical to the FS6420 The dual redundant power supplies on the left side provide essential failover protection for mission-critical deployments, though the compact ventilation design warrants careful consideration. These units should be installed in dedicated rack enclosures to manage noise levels appropriately. This streamlined connectivity design delivers a more contemporary port configuration that gives end users the flexibility to populate PCIe slots with compatible expansion cards, allowing the NAS to be customized for specific requirements. Both new FS models maintain the familiar physical footprint and 2U form factor, with a depth under 800 mm compatible with the Synology RKS-02 rail kit. Weight remains relatively consistent across generations at 15.5 kg. However, compatibility has shifted notably in this generation, particularly regarding SSDs. Unlike their predecessors, the FS6400 and FS3400 which supported third-party drives, the new **FS6420 and FS3420 are restricted to Synology's proprietary SAT5200 series** , available in capacities ranging from 960 GB to 7 TB. Currently compatible list of drives for the FS6420 and FS3420 NAS models (May 2026) * DDR4 ECC RDIMM: D4ER02-64G / D4ER03-32G (for the FS3420) * Enterprise Series 2.5" SATA SSD: SAT5200 Series * 25GbE Network Interface Card: E25G30-F2 * 10GbE Network Interface Card: E10G30-F2/E10G30-T2/E10G30-T1 * Rail Kit Sliding: RKS-02 As expected, both new models come with **Synology's standard 5-year warranty**. Official pricing will be announced shortly, with **global availability anticipated in June 2026**. ## Sign up for free, today! Verified Synology news portal Subscribe Email sent!
