Case Study: Serreyn Network Services achieves server consolidation, triple storage capacity and 75% power savings with Synology Inc.

Serreyn Network Services - Customer Case Study

Serreyn Network Services, a small network security consulting firm in Whitewater, Wisconsin, was running three separate servers for iSCSI, FTP and backups that were costly and time‑consuming to manage. Tasked with finding enterprise‑class storage on an SMB budget, Serreyn evaluated Synology Inc. (starting with a DiskStation desktop unit) and chose the RS3412RPxs RackStation to consolidate iSCSI targets, FTP hosting, Time Machine backups and site syncing.

Synology Inc.’s RS3412RPxs and DiskStation Manager replaced Serreyn’s three older systems, delivering nearly triple the storage capacity, freeing up almost half their rack space and reducing power consumption by about 75%. The Synology solution provided the required high IOPS for iSCSI plus FTP and Time Machine support and added features like bandwidth throttling that helped lower their datacenter bandwidth costs, giving Serreyn enterprise performance at an affordable price.
