Description

12x HDD + 4x SSD hybrid storage
Intel® Xeon® W six-core processor, up to 4.7 GHz
4x 2.5GbE, 2x 10GbE, 3x PCIe slots

 

The high-capacity TVS-h1688X features a powerful Intel® Xeon® W processor and allows for installing two QNAP (sold separately) to attain four Thunderbolt™ 3 ports, making it a perfect match for Thunderbolt™-equipped Mac® and Windows® users for high-speed media collaboration. The built-in 10GbE and 2.5GbE connectivity supports Port Trunking and failover to further satisfy bandwidth and reliability demanding business applications. Running the ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system, the TVS-h1688X supports block-level inline data deduplication and compression, near-limitless snapshots, real-time SnapSync, and read/write cache technologies, helping your business achieve reliable service-level agreement performance, from creative workflows to file server, virtualization server, and efficient file backup and recovery applications.

 


  • High-speed Thunderbolt™ 3

    Attain quad-port Thunderbolt™ 3 connectivity by installing two QXP-T32P expansion cards in the PCIe Gen 3 x4 slots.

    QXP-T32P expansion cards are sold separately

  • 10GbE/2.5GbE connectivity

    Two 10GBASE-T and four 2.5GbE LAN ports accelerate virtualization, intensive file access, large backup/restoration tasks, and media transfer.

  • Flexible PCIe expansion

    PCIe slots allow for installing 5/10/25/40GbE adapters, QM2 cards, or graphics cards to increase application performance.

  • 4K HDMI™ output

    4K media playback and real-time transcoding; directly output videos to an HDMI™ display (up to 4K @30Hz).

  • Virtualization applications

    Supports virtual machines and containerized apps, centralized storage, backup, sharing, disaster recovery, and storage expansion.

  • Cloud storage gateway

    Cloud storage gateways realize hybrid cloud applications by working with the cache space reserved on NAS to ensure low-latency data access to the cloud.
