TBS-464-8G-US 4 Bay M.2 NVMe SSD NASbook Intel Celeron N5105/N5095 4-core CPU, 8GB DDR4 Memory, and 2.5GbE (1G/100M/10M) Network Connectivity (Diskless)

Qnap had a great eco system. This little box is absolutely silent. I’m running 4x4tb drives in a raid 5 and get a little over 10tb. It’s kinda a niche product. You can get more space for less with spinning rust. I personally use it on the network I built in my semi truck and for that spinning drives seemed like a bad idea. It’s been a powerful little Plex box and an absolutely fantastic file storage box. It’s definitely well built and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy another one if I had a use for it. Setup is super easy. It has a ton of apps and docker so you can run almost anything on it. You will wanna some additional repos to get the most out of it. If you can get a dual 5gbe connection going to it you can read and write fast enough to saturate the bandwidth.

There is alot to like here but the lack of memory expansion without sacrificing one slot to use as an SSD Cache. Means this thing is extremely hampered by tech limitations when performing more than a few tasks at a time. Using it as a media server and NVR pretty much tops the system out especially if you load new content on and it starts generating thumbnails. It surprises me that for the NVME version of this NAS they went to a plastic case. Drives with naturally higher operating temp you remove the metal chassis that acts like a giant heat sink??? They had to spend money on plastic tooling to build a less efficient chassis as far as thermal management goes... just an odd choice that adds significant development cost that has to be recouped over the life cycle of the product. They could have kept it metal and sold it a lower price point; enticing more consumers or price the same and pad their margins... Either way you look at it a bad organizational choice one of many that keeps this NAS from being perfect. That being said if you accept its limitations it does a pretty darn good job.

Incredibly fast. Maxes out at 5gbps due to nic speed but it’s silent, fast and rock stable. Highly recommend this model. I run raid 5 on 3x 2tb samsung nvme ssd and a 256gb Nvme cache Running a 8esxi VMware farm off of it flawlessly

Easy set up, quiet, does what it is supposed to do

I thought this would be perfect for my new Home Entertainment NAS given the NVME Disks which are 100 times faster than old 3.5 inch, and even 2.5 SSD. It doesn't translate into performance though, it is as slow as if not even slower than 3.5 7,200 rpm hard drives. 16 Hours to do a 387 GB Backup, hours to copy and paste. Don't waste your money, build your own like I am going to do. In addition, now half the apps won't work.

Easy to setup. Ideal for small business or home setup

It's unfortunate that the previous reviewer had pretty problems making it work with 4 nvmes. However my experience is different with these setup: 1 2TB iron wolf nvme ssd 3 2TB Samsung pro nvme ssd All are configured as single disks (no RAID nor JBOD) with thick and some thin volumes. No RAID because won't need it for performance and don't really need redundancy since I have snapshots enabled, backing up those snapshots and I have daily backups to an USB 3.2 hard disk enclosure with QuDedup. On top of that I have an on demand one touch sync backup on another USB 3.2 RAID 1 storage (bigger capacity since also using this to archive some things) I did have an issue with my first external storage though. HB3 is not happy with me assigning a volume name different from the Disk ID seen by the NAS. So has to rename that volume. Other than that, things are working great. Longevity is another thing that I will have to look at thought. So if something goes wrong l, will update. Otherwise, assume everything is running smoothly Tip for those new at this, do make sure you add qnapclub as an app repo. Lots of useful stuff there

What do I like about this device? It's advertised as a NAS. It uses SSD NVMe storage. So, it's definitely quiet, and the storage can be redundant, fast, and as much as you can afford to stuff in it. What do I NOT like? It's advertised as a NAS, but it's not designed as a NAS. Sure, it will get the job done, but it takes A LOT of effort, research, and experimenting to get there. As a NAS, there's TWO things this device needs to do EASILY: 1) Create users, and 2) start backing up their data. There is no easy way to understand how to set up the storage or storage options. What are the home folders for? What do Sharing Folders do differently? How do you create regular users versus power/admin users? Why is QNAP Sync so difficult to configure? Why can't Sync allow an administrator to setup syncing and new folders for new users in three clicks or less? How many apps and configurations do I need to just back my f*@#$*! data up??? QNAP has not put much thought into making this an easy appliance to own. And, considering the cost of both the device and the subsequent SSDs you have to buy, it's very disappointing. Also, the instructions for setup are quite confusing. Single-sided SSDs need heat pads on both sides, and an extra on the bottom? The drawings do not clearly show this, and doesn't explain about SSDs which have labels on them (like Samsung). Do you remove them first? Apply the pad over it? Then there's the issue of heat. These things pump out heat, and the internal fan isn't quite enough to keep things cool. Perhaps that's a noise issue, but they should've placed vents on the top or bottom of the unit to allow external cooling options (like attaching a quiet 100mm fan or blower). I haven't even dug deep into the multimedia or other features, but every application is a complicated setup, it seems, and I doubt you'll even use it for this considering the non-friendly setup and the cost of the storage. QNAP: If you're going to advertise this as a NAS, it should out-of-the-box be ready to do so, easily and quickly. There should be a wizard with proper language grammar that walk the user through initial setup of storage, users, and syncing. We shouldn't all need to be a seasoned Linux users to get our money's worth.

Facil instalación con conocimientos mínimos, trabaja muy rapido, aunque dice 8GB, hay que entender que son 8GB por slot de cada SSD, en total 32 GB. Me encanto la customización de loa SSD, me permitió configurar 3 en RAID 5 y 1 en 0, ahi se hacen respaldos automáticos incrementales gracias a que tiene sus propoñias apps dentro de su centro de descargas

QNAP NAS HDD からの乗り換え。SSDなので駆動部品がファン以外なし。 とても静かで安定している。 メーカーの互換リストにないがKIOXIAのSSDで問題無く動作。 ビープサウンドの音量設定が無いのかな？ちょっと煩く、そこだけ不満。

Using as a file server so that I can both backup and access media. I am not a network guy, but I am above average for technical hardware issues. This literally to 10 to 20 minutes. 1) I installed the drives in the order the device wanted. It has giant #'s so that was pretty easy. 2) I placed the gooey sticky pads on the drives followed by the heat sync. 3)I plugged in the system (my computer was wireless) and Qfinder pro found it, and performed some firmware updates. 4)I initialized the drives (just like partitioning a disk) 5)I chose the RAID - it gave you the option for redundancy of just one large drive. If you choose redundancy - RAID 1 option you get 1/2 the storage but redundancy. I have an offline drive and use the HD on my computer so I did not use redundancy. This step is essentially formatting your drive. 6)I mapped a drive to my computer and I now have a z: drive on my network. I also installed the Plex server so that I can steam music to my stereo with my Shield. You can install media server apps too. Anyways if you didn't follow what I did - find a techie friend. If I sounded like I barely understand what I am talking about you are likely more advanced than me and will do fine.

導入後２ヶ月問題なく動作している。 ハードディスクに比べSSDのNASは設備投資費用を除いてとても優れていると思う。 但し、この製品は他社のSSD・NASに比べ利点は少ないと思う。 QNAP製品のNASからNASへのバックアップ機能がなければ他社製品を選んでいたかもしれない。 自分が感じた利点はQNaのNasというソフトウエア面での経験値。 設置も設定もQNAP経験者にとっては楽に出来る。 逆にハードウエアとしてのアドバンス性というか利点は少ない。 稼働中は静かだが結構筐体は暑くなる。もう少し冷却性に優れたシャシーを考えられなかったのだろうか？

SynologyはM.２SSD使えないので試しに購入。HDDみたいな物理故障や温度の心配をしなくてよく省エネで静かで素晴らしいです。アプリの画面がよくわからないので設定がめんどうです。特に通知の設定項目がものすごく多く、どれをONにしたらどんなときに通知のメールが来るのかわからないのでのぞみの設定にするのが大変です。その点Synologyは簡単に使えて便利でした。SynologyがM.2対応してたらそっち買うんですけどね
