Easy to upgrade memory took sodimm ddr4 3200 16 gig. Qnap went to soldered on memory on new machines suppossedly due to a ram shortage so now you can not upgrade their ram so this was a HUGE no no for me. I was a Qnap lover, but a friend has a older version of this and I thought i'd give em a try. Software looks almost identical to a Qnap so was easy for me to get in and go. 2x2.5 gb networking. it does transfer very quickly. 4X Gen 3 m.2 (NOTE THESE GET HOT). I used heat sinks for all 4 and have had zero problems. It's worth a few bucks to toss heat sinks on em. if your only going to cache boost with em get small cheapies they run much cooler. Took a few tries to get the setup I wanted with my raid and SSD caching. This was a neck and neck with Qnap ts464. its cheaper and does the same stuff, but you can upgrade the ram. I have both this and the Qnap ts464 this is my favorite. This thing for Plex is a beast! transcodes multiple streams like a champ.



Reasonable speed,quiet,has a on/off switch on it

This QNAP runs quickly and quietly. The VM is Microsoft Server 2019, and it is very fast. I have it configured to boot off of a RAID-1 SSD drive array, and the AMD Ryzen processor is very fast. Adding RAM and the SSD drives was EASY. Very nice design on the case, easy access 3 screws and that was it. I added five 16-TB drives in RAID-5, and it is used as a Veeam Offsite Repository target server.

Its very nice to have, I'm using it as just a media drive and it hasn't given me any problems. I have it setup plugged straight into my router, so i can access it from any device on my network. I had no problem with either of the app on my android phone or tablet.



Very fast Robust with lots of options

Unit comes with 8 mb of RAM. Upgrading to 32 was easy and allowed use of the more advanced QTS Hero software.



Affordable. And works very well



Great unit

Works superbly. Easy to setup. Very good management software. Lots of other users (e.g. on Reddit). Bought empty, and populated with four (4) 6TB drives (WD6001F4PZ-49CWHM0). More storage than I'll need for a decade.

DDR5 gives on-die error correction Extra bays give cache options Compatible RAM upgrades TrueNAS compatibility

Best value at the discounted price More space and specs Processor and memory stays low Multiple bays offer great expansion with secure raid Love multiple NICs Option to add PCIe 10Gb NIC
