QNAP TS-467X 4-Bay Dual 10GbE Tower NAS

Bring Shared Work onto a Faster Network The TS-467X brings dual 10GbE networking to a compact business-storage platform built for shared projects, backup and everyday collaboration. Its AMD Ryzen Embedded V1500B processor gives teams four cores and eight threads, while SATA drive bays and dedicated M.2 slots let you plan bulk storage and SSD acceleration separately. It suits studios and smaller organisations moving beyond a single-workstation storage routine. Choose the drives, protection level and network path around the way your team works. Fast network ports help only when the switching, client connections and storage layout can support them. This diskless NAS gives you that flexibility without requiring a separate network expansion card for its built-in 10GbE connections. Highlights AMD Ryzen Embedded V1500B quad-core eight-thread processing Two built-in 10GBASE-T network ports SATA storage plus two dedicated M.2 NVMe slots Memory expansion to 64GB with optional ECC support QTS supplied with a qualified upgrade path to QuTS hero PCIe expansion and USB-A/USB-C connections at up to 10Gbps Key Features A Faster Route to Shared Files Two built-in 10GBASE-T ports serve high-bandwidth file access, large backups and multi-user work. Supported port trunking and suitable switch configurations can share traffic across links, while one client’s actual transfer rate still depends on its network path, the workload and the installed storage. Use the NAS alongside appropriate cabling, switching and workstation adapters. Separate Bulk Storage from SSD Acceleration SATA bays support compatible hard drives and SATA SSDs, with two dedicated M.2 2280 PCIe Gen3 x2 slots for NVMe SSDs. Supported SSD caching can improve random-access workloads; QTS also supports Qtier auto-tiering. These functions have different drive, memory and software requirements. Select suitable heatsinks for M.2 SSDs and shut down before working on non-hot-swappable M.2 or PCIe devices. Start with QTS and Plan Any ZFS Upgrade QTS is supplied as the default operating system. The platform also supports QuTS hero for a ZFS-based deployment, with at least 8GB RAM required. The standard 4GB configuration therefore needs a memory upgrade before using QuTS hero. Inline deduplication requires at least 16GB RAM. Back up important data and plan initialisation before switching operating systems; application availability and storage features differ between them. Make Protection Part of the Workflow Hybrid Backup Sync supports planned backup and synchronisation to supported NAS, external and cloud destinations. Qsync provides supported file synchronisation between devices. Combine these tools with appropriate snapshots, permissions and independent backup copies. RAID and snapshots help with particular failures or mistakes, while a tested separate backup remains essential for ransomware, device loss and wider incidents. Plan Cameras with the Right Entitlement On a supported configuration, QVR Surveillance provides two base camera channels, with six additional channels claimable after registration for a total of eight. QVR Pro separately provides eight built-in channels on compatible QTS installations. Choose the application, camera settings, storage retention and RAM together. Maximum recording capacity depends on the model, operating system, camera bitrate and licence support; plan the system before going beyond the free entitlement. Keep Expansion Deliberate One PCIe Gen3 x4 slot accepts compatible expansion cards, while the built-in USB connections run at up to 10Gbps. USB4 expansion requires the optional QXP-40G2UC card; it is not a built-in USB4 port. Check card dimensions, software support and connected expansion-unit compatibility before allocating the single slot. Memory can expand to 64GB, and ECC requires replacing the supplied non-ECC memory with a supported matched configuration. Summary TS-467X is a considered choice for a team that wants faster shared storage, adaptable drive layouts and a clear backup strategy. Begin with the supplied QTS configuration, then plan memory, SSD acceleration and expansion around the workload. Storage drives are sold separately. Match the NAS, network and protection plan so the finished system is comfortable to manage as your data and applications grow. Frequently Asked Questions Are Hard Drives or M.2 SSDs Included?ExpandCollapse No. This is a diskless NAS. Choose compatible SATA drives and any required M.2 2280 NVMe SSDs separately. The M.2 slots use PCIe Gen3 x2; appropriate SSD heatsinks are recommended. Is ECC Memory Installed as Standard?ExpandCollapse No. The listed configuration includes 4GB of non-ECC DDR4 memory. ECC is supported as an upgrade. Remove the supplied non-ECC module before installing a compatible ECC configuration, and do not mix ECC with non-ECC modules. The two SODIMM slots support up to 64GB. Can I Use QuTS hero with the Standard Memory?ExpandCollapse The standard 4GB configuration uses QTS. QuTS hero requires at least 8GB RAM, and inline deduplication requires at least 16GB. Upgrade memory and confirm application support before changing the operating system. Back up your data before initialising a different storage environment. How Many Camera Channels Are Included?ExpandCollapse QVR Surveillance includes two base channels, with six more claimable after registration on a supported configuration, for eight in total. QVR Pro separately lists eight built-in channels on compatible QTS systems. These are separate application entitlements. Camera resolution, bitrate, operating system, RAM, storage and licence support determine a suitable recording design; the free-channel count is not a fixed maximum. Does It Have Built-in USB4?ExpandCollapse No. Its built-in USB-A and USB-C ports are USB 3.2 Gen2 at up to 10Gbps. Connecting supported USB4 expansion hardware requires the optional QXP-40G2UC PCIe card and a compatible expansion unit. Does RAID Replace a Backup?ExpandCollapse No. An appropriate RAID layout can tolerate certain drive failures. It does not replace an independent backup for accidental deletion, ransomware, theft or a wider system failure. Use separate backup copies and test that important files can be restored. 続きを読む
