Case Study: Photographer Zakary Belamy achieves secure, flexible global photo storage and streamlined workflows with Synology Inc.

Zakary Belamyt - Customer Case Study

Zakary Belamy, a Paris-based professional photographer with a 10+ year archive of over 3 TB of images, faced unreliable, time-consuming backups and constant hard-disk upgrades that risked losing irreplaceable photos. He turned to Synology Inc., initially buying a DS407e and later a DS1512+, seeking a simple, protected, and globally accessible storage solution to replace manual mirroring and annual disk migrations.

Synology Inc. implemented DiskStation devices using Synology Hybrid RAID (SHR), scheduled backups, Photo Station and remote access (FTP/download links), giving Zakary flexible expansion with mixed-size drives, automated data protection, and worldwide file delivery. The result: consolidated and protected storage of his 3+ TB archive, elimination of manual syncing and yearly disk purchases, faster client delivery of large files in minutes, reduced travel gear and paid cloud services, plus ongoing DSM updates and responsive support.
