Designed for on-demand scalability the SA3410 12-Bay NAS Enclosure from Synology lets enterprise data centers, studios, and growing businesses store large data volumes without sacrificing speed and performance, thanks to sequential read speeds of up to 6200 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 3000 MB/s. Built with 12 drive bays that can accommodate 3.5" SAS-3 and SATA III hard drives, as well as 2.5" SSDs, the SA3410's storage can be expanded to have 96 total drive bays using seven RX1222sas expansion units.

NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices run 24/7, making power consumption a steady, though low, cost. The real ongoing expense is replacing hard drives as they fail or filling empty bays to expand storage.
Common Failure Modes
Hard drive failure is the most common issue, which is why NAS uses RAID redundancy to prevent data loss. Fan failures and power brick deaths are the primary hardware issues for the enclosure itself.
Buy based on the software ecosystem (e.g., Synology DSM) and the number of drive bays you need for redundancy and future expansion. CPU power matters greatly if you plan to run media servers like Plex.
The NAS enclosure itself can last a decade. However, the hard drives inside are consumable and typically need replacing every few years depending on workload.
