Synology DS124
Synology DS124
The Synology DS124 serves as a centralised tower-type network storage for storing, sharing, and backing up digital data in both home and business environments. The single-slot unit for a 3.5" SATA HDD or 2.5" SATA SSD provides secure file access from anywhere via the internet and the DiskStation Manager operating system. The system is powered by a quad-core Realtek RTD1619B processor clocked at 1.7GHz and 1GB of DDR4 RAM. This allows users to manage their documents, photos, and multimedia without needing to use paid public cloud services.

Private cloud
The centralised Synology Drive system replaces public cloud services, keeping data under the user's full control. Access stored files from computers running Windows, macOS, and Linux, as well as from mobile devices with Android and iOS. On-demand synchronisation saves space on local drives by downloading data only when the user is actively working with it.
Effective team collaboration
Data is shared between users via secure links, making it easier to collaborate on joint projects. The Synology Drive ShareSync service synchronises files between several separate Synology devices in different locations. This ensures teams always have the latest versions of documents, no matter where they are.
Automatic backup
Protecting data from loss or ransomware attacks relies on regular, real-time backups of important folders. The Hyper Backup tool transfers selected folders, system settings, and applications to multiple different destinations. Users can also use snapshot technology, which captures the state of data at a specific moment and is used for quick recovery in case of accidental deletion.
Synchronisation with the public cloud
The Synology Cloud Sync service connects local storage with commercial cloud platforms like Google Drive, Dropbox, and Microsoft OneDrive. This allows users to create copies of data from these services directly on their own hardware. This process helps maintain full ownership of information while providing another layer of backup in case of an external provider outage.
Intelligent photo management
The integrated media management app automatically organises uploaded photos and videos into clear albums. Algorithms based on face detection and geolocation data make it easy to find specific shots in large libraries. Sharing albums with family or colleagues is done via secure links with the option to set access permissions.
Professional video surveillance
The device also serves as a hub for camera systems thanks to the Surveillance Station application. Users can connect compatible IP cameras and watch live streams or save recordings. The system supports thousands of camera models and offers remote access to monitor properties via a web browser or mobile app.
