5x HDD + 4x SSD hybrid storage
AMD Ryzen™ quad-core 2.2 GHz CPU
2x 2.5GbE, 1x 10GbE
Featuring an AMD Ryzen™ V1000 series V1500B quad-core processor and 10GbE/2.5GbE connectivity, the 9-bay TS-h973AX packs a high-capacity hybrid storage infrastructure into a compact physical footprint. With five 3.5-inch SATA 6Gbps drive bays, two 2.5-inch U.2 NVMe SSD slots (Slot 1 & 2 support both U.2 NVMe and SATA SSDs ), and two 2.5-inch SATA 6Gbps SSD slots, the TS-h973AX can benefit from SSD caching to boost IOPS-intensive applications. With the ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system, the TS-h973AX ensures data integrity and supports block-level inline data deduplication and compression, near-limitless snapshots, and real-time SnapSync to satisfy mission-critical file servers, virtualization servers, collaborative video editing, and efficient data backup and recovery with business-class performance, job reliability, and lower overall cost.
To run memory-intensive applications such as Virtualization Station, Q'center, Qsirch, QVR Center, Qsync, or Boxafe, please purchase TS-h973AX-32G model or upgrade the memory of TS-h973AX-8G to at least 16GB to ensure smooth system operation.
-
Optimized SSD performance and lifespan
Install high-performance U.2 NVMe PCIe Gen 3 x4 SSDs or SATA 6Gb/s SSDs in the dedicated SSD slots for cache acceleration and improved random I/O.
-
10GbE/2.5GbE connectivity
One 10GBASE-T Multi-Gig and two 2.5GbE LAN ports accelerate virtualization, intensive file access, large backup/restoration tasks, and media transfer.
-
SaaS backup and recovery
Experience a business-class backup center, supporting backup/restore of cloud data and VMs (including Google™ Workspace, Microsoft 365®, VMware® and Hyper-V).
-
Virtualization applications
Host multiple virtual machines and containers to run a wide range of applications on the TS-h973AX.
-
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.
-
Flexible storage expansion
Flexibly scale your total storage capacity to match your business growth by connecting USB expansion enclosures (TR series JBOD).
