Headquartered in Taipei, QNAP delivers its solutions to the global market with nonstop innovation and passion.
This winter, QNAP introduced its new line of QTS-Android Combo NAS devices. Designed to fit in homes and small offices/workspaces, the single bay TAS-168 and 2-bay TAS-268 feature a compact mini-tower design and are powered by an ARM v7 1.1GHz dual-core processor with 2GB of DDR3 RAM. Also, like QNAP's other NAS servers, the TAS-168 and TAS-268 are packed full of cutting-edge features and apps to provide day-to-day file storage, backup, sharing, synchronization and entertainment needs.
What really makes the TAS-168 and TAS-268 special, though, is that they run both QTS and Android. Where QTS delivers efficient data transmission, rich multimedia functionalities and solid data security, the Google certified Android system lets users playback videos, download and run apps, and manage files on a 4K display with HDMI. QTS and Android also share the same storage database, so users can access media files and documents from both systems simultaneously.
