The ioSafe 1522+ is an innovative five-bay network-attached storage (NAS) device. This flexible, inclusive solution is for businesses of all sizes, including those with remote locations in fire- and flood-prone areas.

“The 1522+ is the next proof point in our commitment to delivering the world’s most innovative and effective fireproof and waterproof data protection solutions,” said Randal Barber, CEO of ioSafe parent company CDSG. “This powerful device helps businesses and government agencies, media companies, and creative professionals restore enormous amounts of data faster than ever after a disaster, ensuring as little disruption to their businesses as possible.”

The 1522+ comes standard with 8GB of configurable RAM and is upgradeable to 32GB, making it ideal for a wide range of storage environment tasks, including running virtual machines and data server applications for a department or an entire company.

New to ioSafe NAS devices is an optional 10GbE network port for the fastest access and performance. In addition, four 1 GbE LAN ports enable link aggregation for high throughput and failover support. 

The 1522+ uses the trusted Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM), which includes on-site or cloud-integrated backup, data encryption, data sharing, synchronization, and surveillance.

“I have seen an ioSafe device perform above expectations in a live-fire situation in Portland, Oregon, where a dental practice suffered the complete loss of building and equipment,” said Tom Wynkoop, hardware support supervisor, Astra Practice Partners, a company that provides front- and back-office solutions for dental practices in the Pacific Northwest. “We extracted the drive, performed a 100% recovery, and had the practice back in business the following day. ioSafe products perform, surviving both extremes: the fire itself and the fire department’s water when extinguishing the fire.”
