QNAP Systems, Inc., a leading computing, networking, and storage solution innovator, today launched the TS-x64U NAS (including 4 and 12-bay models). Supporting PCIe Gen 3 expandability, 2.5 GbE connectivity and 4K HDMI output, the TS-x64U enables not only installing a QM2 card for M.2 SSD caching or Edge TPU for AI image recognition, but also convenient virtual machine display and smooth multimedia streaming.

The TS-x64U is powered by an Intel Celeron N5105/ N5095 quad-core 4-thread processor (burst up to 2.9 GHz) with Intel AES-NI encryption engine and 4 GB DDR4 memory (upgradable to 16 GB dual channel). The TS-x64U has a PCIe Gen 3 slot allowing installing a 10GbE network card, a QM2 card for NVMe SSD caching or Qtier, or a Coral M.2 Accelerator for AI image recognition. The TS-x64U has two 2.5 GbE ports, two USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) and two USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) ports that provide faster data transfer and backup. The TS-x64U's storage capacity can be expanded by connecting TL and TR storage expansion enclosures.The TS-x64U adopts the latest QTS 5.0 operating system, and includes rich NAS home/business applications: HBS (Hybrid Backup Sync) realizes efficient local/remote/cloud backup jobs; Block-based snapshots make data protection and recovery easier and effectively mitigate the threats of ransomware; HybridMount provides cloud storage gateways that integrate private and public cloud storage and enable local caching; Virtualization Station and Container Station enables light virtualization applications; QVR Elite helps deploy a cutting-edge smart surveillance system; and KoiMeeter provides a complete cross-platform video meeting and wireless presentation solution. Home users will also enjoy the wide range of multimedia applications (including Plex ), streaming capabilities, and a built-in HDMI port, which allows them to enjoy their multimedia on their device of choice.
