Explore this buying guide ↗Why consider this model?
- A documented fit to investigate for a 2U rack deployment that needs twelve native SATA positions, redundant power, built-in 2.5GbE links and an owner-configured two-drive RAID 1 choice under either QTS or QuTS hero. The reviewed U.S. 8G profile begins with one 8 GB DDR4 UDIMM and ships without data drives.
Tradeoffs to weigh
- This is a diskless rack chassis, not a ready-populated pool or quiet desktop NAS. A single built-in link tops out at 2.5GbE; faster Ethernet needs compatible expansion. The guide/current selector differ on 2.5-inch HDD wording, published dimensions and weight; the guide overview also conflicts with its detailed/current 64 GB memory ceiling. Confirm exact drives/firmware, memory modules, rack rails, cabinet fit and seller contents. QuTS hero's 8 GB minimum is only its entry threshold; QNAP recommends more memory for heavier use. No independent throughput, noise, power or reliability test is available.
