QNAP Launches SAS-Enabled Turbo NAS and 2.5-Inch High-Density Turbo NAS

QNAP today launched five business-class, SAS-enabled Turbo NAS models, including TS-EC1679U-SAS-RP and TS-EC1279U-SAS-RP, which support both SAS and SATA 6Gbps HDDs, and the 2.5-inch high-density SS-EC2479U-SAS-RP, SS-EC1879U-SAS-RP, and SS-EC1279U-SAS-RP. The support of SAS HDDs increases disk I/O performance and offers high reliability for data transmission and storage. The new models offer storage expansion port(s) allowing seamless capacity expansion with QNAP RAID expansion enclosures.



The new SAS-enabled models are equipped with a quad-core Intel Xeon 3.4GHz CPU, 8GB DDR3 ECC RAM, 10GbE option, and support SSD caching for improved performance of IOPS-demanding applications such as virtualization and data center deployment.

Highly scalable, the new models support online capacity expansion by connecting multiple QNAP RAID expansion enclosures (REXP-1600U-RP and REXP-1200U-RP) for over 400TB raw total storage.

The SAS-enabled Turbo NAS models are certified by major virtualization solutions, support VMware vSphere 5.1 and Citrix XenServer, and are compatible with Microsoft Hyper-V and Windows Server 2012. They also support of VMware VAAI, QNAP vSphere Client plug-in, Microsoft ODX, and QNAP SMI-S provider.

The new models offer flexible backup and recovery solutions. Windows and Mac users can use the QNAP NetBak Replicator utility and Apple Time Machine respectively to back up data. Disaster recovery solutions include Real-time Remote Replication (RTRR) to cloud storage including Amazon S3, ElephantDrive, Symform, and Google Drive. Third-party backup software such as Veeam Backup & Replication and Acronis True Image are also supported.

Among other features are cross-platform file sharing for Windows, Mac, and Linux/UNIX, support for Windows AD and LDAP directory services and the Windows ACL (Access Control List) feature.

Key specifications:

  • TS-EC1679U-SAS-RP: 16-drive 3U rackmount unit, quad-core Intel Xeon 3.4 GHz CPU, 8GB DDR3 ECC RAM (expandable to 16GB), 4x Gigabit LAN ports, optional 10GbE support, supports 3.5/2.5-inch SAS/SATA 6Gbps HDDs/SSD, HDDs hot-swappable, 2x storage expansion port, 2x PCIe slot, 2x USB 3.0 port;
