The 4-bay rackmount TS-471U series is powered by Intel Haswell Pentium and Core i3 processors that are capable of proiding oer 1,500 MB/s throughput and 128,000 IOPS for CPU-intensie tasks including irtualization Station, sering large numbers of simultaneous connections, and 4K ideo playback and transcoding. Its two on-board internal cache ports enables users to install mSATA flash modules to further enhance NAS performance for IOPS-demanding applications. The storage capacity of the TS-471U series can be scaled up to oer 1PB by attaching multiple QNAP RAID expansion enclosures (REXP-1600U-RP and REXP-1200U-RP).
“The dual-core TS-471U series is designed for reliability and scalability, and deliers the performance necessary for operating multiple irtual machines using irtualization Station and to edit large ideos on-the-fly”, said Alan Lin, product manager of QNAP.
