NAS Qnap TS-431XEU-2G Rack 1U

The high-performance, shallow-depth quad-core TS-431XeU includes a 10GbE SFP+ port to fully support high-speed 10GbE networks at an economical price with maximized ROI. The shallow design is perfectly suited for installing the TS-431XeU in a compact rack, or in places with a large amount of cabling. The TS-431XeU provides versatile multifunctional functionality and unique features, including VJBOD (Virtual JBOD) - a cost-effective way to use unused NAS storage space to expand the storage capacity of other QNAP NAS - and Container Station - which enables users to rapidly develop and deploy Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The TS-431XeU is a cost-effective storage solution designed for growing businesses looking to be able to backup, restore, private cloud, storage for virtualization, and future-proof their IT infrastructure for 10GbE networks.

Compared to a traditional 4-bay rackmount NAS, the TS-431XeU is only 294mm (11.46in) deep. This makes the TS-431XeU an excellent choice for smaller racks, and unused space can be reserved for cabling or ventilation. The TS-431XeU saves space for flexible deployment and is especially suitable for multiple locations and applications, including offices, AV rooms, and security surveillance recording.

The TS-431XeU is equipped with an Alpine AL314 quad-core 1.7GHz ARM® Cortex-A15 processor from Annapurna Labs, the Amazon company, with SATA 6Gb/s and up to 8GB DDR3 RAM. Its encryption acceleration engine provides encryption performance unmatched in its class with full NAS AES 256-bit volume encryption, boosting system performance and security while ensuring data safety Confidential business documents stored on the TS-431XeU. In addition to two Gigabit Ethernet ports, the TS-431XeU also includes a 10GbE SFP+ port to support high-speed 10GbE networks in enterprises that require higher bandwidth for virtualization and fast backup and restore of a number of growing data.

The professional type TS-431XeU is designed to provide 24/7 operations and services. Support for full RAID configurations and hot swapping allows hard drive replacement without service interruption. QNAP's advanced RAID recovery technology also helps in the event that a healthy drive is accidentally removed from a degraded RAID volume. The system can be recovered by reinserting incorrectly removed hard drives so that the data can continue to be accessible. The TS-431XeU offers high reliability and efficiency with support for multiple port-trunking modes including fail-over support.
