Synology SNV5420-1600G 1.6TB Enterprise M.2 NVMe SSD
The Synology SNV5420-1600G is a high-performance 1600GB (1.6TB) M.2 NVMe SSD designed specifically for demanding caching workloads in 24/7 enterprise environments. Built for Synology NAS and storage systems, this PCIe 3.0 x4 drive delivers sustained sequential read speeds up to 3000 MB/s and write speeds up to 1000 MB/s, with exceptional random read/write performance of 660,000/120,000 IOPS. Perfect for high-performance file servers, database storage, virtualization environments, and cache acceleration applications.
Why Choose the Synology SNV5420-1600G?
This enterprise-grade SSD is engineered to work seamlessly with Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM) to maximize I/O performance and system responsiveness. It accelerates slower traditional hard drives by offloading frequent data requests to high-speed flash storage, dramatically improving overall system performance without sacrificing valuable drive bays.

Built for Maximum Performance Consistency
Unlike consumer SSDs, the SNV5420-1600G undergoes rigorous validation testing specifically for Synology systems. Every engineering change is followed by comprehensive I/O stress testing, power cycling, and temperature testing to ensure the highest standards of quality and reliability in mission-critical applications.
Enterprise-Grade Data Protection
The SNV5420 Series features end-to-end data protection with dedicated power loss protection circuitry. Onboard capacitors safely write cached data to NAND flash memory during power failures, preventing data loss and corruption. This makes it ideal for applications where data integrity is paramount, including virtualization, large-scale databases, and shared folders with frequent file access.
Intelligent Integration with DSM
Synology's Enterprise Series M.2 NVMe SSDs provide more accurate health insights in DSM, including detailed workload monitoring over time. Automatic firmware updates through DSM and timely notifications of potential issues help you maintain consistent system performance and plan proactive maintenance.
Flexible Installation Options
The M.2 2280 form factor allows direct installation into dedicated M.2 slots on compatible Synology NAS models (DS1520+, DS920+, DS720+, DS420+, DS1019+, and more), or via adapter cards like the E10M20-T1, M2D20, or M2D18, freeing up valuable 3.5-inch drive bays for storage expansion.
Ideal Applications
- High-performance caching for NAS systems
- Database acceleration and transaction processing
- Virtualization environments with intensive I/O demands
- Content creation workflows requiring fast storage
- Multi-user collaboration with frequent file access
- Surveillance systems with high write demands
