About This Product

RDS is a high-performance, all-in-one storage, 100G networking, and container platform designed for enterprise environments. Featuring 20 U.2 NVMe storage slots and a special RouterOS Edition for Storage & Compute (ROSE).

Third parties control your data. Should they? Your business, your files, your future – handed over to external providers with unclear policies and unknown risks.

Introducing the Rose Data Server (RDS2216) – a high-performance, all-in-one storage, networking, and container platform designed for enterprise environments. Secure, scalable, and under your control.

2× 100G QSFP28 ports, 4× 25G SFP28 ports, 4× 10G SFP+ ports, 2× 10G Ethernet ports, and an extra SFF-8644 interface for flexible connectivity.

Cut power consumption and heat output while maintaining high performance – an ecofriendly solution for data-heavy environments.

The most flexible, modular networking OS. Supports advanced storage capabilities, including exporting block devices over NVMe-TCP, encryption layers, and modular storage configurations for scalable infrastructure. No subscriptions. No paywalls.

Run MinIO, Nextcloud, Shinobi, Frigate, and other OCI compliant containers with ease. We’ve added two USB ports for additional devices and further adaptability.

It’s a breakthrough in flexible networking and storage for the most demanding enterprise environments. Reliable 100-Gigabit connectivity. Ultra-fast NVMe storage support. Containers. Enterprise-grade performance.

Each U.2 drive in the RDS is connected with 2× PCIe 3.0 lanes (16 Gbps per drive), and the entire disk plane has a 16× PCIe 3.0 connection to the CPU (128 Gbps total).

In practical use, CPU performance will be the limiting factor before PCIe bandwidth becomes a bottleneck, especially with multiple drives handling parallel workloads. When writing large files over NVMe-TCP, the system can sustain up to 50 Gbps continuous write speeds.
