Just to clarify, Synology doesn’t actually make dedicated “CCTV” or surveillance drives. Instead, standard NAS drives—like Seagate IronWolf, Western Digital Red, or Toshiba NAS drives—are commonly used and work well for surveillance purposes. These NAS drives are designed for 24/7 operation, reliable performance, and workloads like video recording.
Toshiba’s S300 drives are specifically built for surveillance too, so they’re also a solid choice if you want drives optimized for continuous video capture. Both NAS drives and surveillance-class drives can generally be used without issue in Synology NAS units.
For the latest 2025 Synology NAS, it’s best to check the official Synology compatibility list once it’s available to confirm supported drives. Even if Toshiba S300 or other non-Synology drives aren’t officially listed, they typically still work fine.
So overall, NAS drives are perfectly suitable for surveillance use, and there’s no separate dedicated Synology CCTV drive lineup.
