Synology said it has started shipping its previously-announced DX510 expansion chassis for its DS1010+ and DS710+ NASes.
The DX510 uses an eSATA port multiplier to connect up to five 2.5 or 3.5" SATA drives to the main NAS via a single eSATA cable.
The drives in the DX510 can be used to expand internal RAID volumes or create new volumes.
The DX510 is available now at street pricing around $480.
Thecus Technology recently announced the N1200 combination BYOD NAS and router.
The N1200 can accept one 2.5" or 3.5" SATA hard drive and has one eSATA and two USB 2.0 ports for capacity expansion. A "one-touch" copy button is provided for easy file back up from digital cameras or USB flash drives.
