QNAP TS-873AeU-RP-4G
The QNAP TS-873AeU-RP-4G NAS is used for storing and managing business data in a rackmount cabinet. This network storage offers eight hard drive bays and speeds up file transfers on your local network. The device uses a quad-core AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000 processor with a frequency of 2.2GHz and supports installation in shallow-depth cabinets. The design requires 2U of rack height. The system supports either the QTS or QuTS hero operating systems for optimal data integrity and reliability. Users can take advantage of the M.2 slots for SSD caching or Edge TPU drives for AI-powered image recognition.
Key features of the QNAP TS-873AeU-RP-4G NAS
- The storage has a short chassis with a depth of 29.7cm
- The device features a quad-core AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000 processor with a 2.2GHz frequency
- The motherboard has two M.2 PCIe Gen 3 slots for connecting fast SSDs
- The design offers one free PCIe Gen 3 slot for installing additional cards
- The network interface consists of two ports with a transfer speed of 2.5GbE
Compact design
This rack-mountable device has a depth of just 297mm. This size makes it easy to install in small wall-mounted racks and multimedia cabinets. The short chassis leaves plenty of room for cabling and necessary air ventilation. Installation requires the optional RAIL-S01 rail kit. The smaller depth saves space in offices, audiovisual rooms, or security surveillance areas.
High performance with an AMD Ryzen processor
At the heart of the storage is a quad-core AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000 processor with a 2.2GHz frequency. In its basic configuration, the system uses 4096MB of DDR4 RAM. Users can expand the RAM capacity up to 65536MB to run demanding business applications. Support for ECC memory contributes to the stability of the entire system when running virtual machines. The hardware handles demanding tasks such as VDI, R&D, or a private cloud.
Fast network connection
The storage has two integrated 2.5GbE RJ45 ports for fast data transfer. Port trunking these ports provides a total transfer speed of up to 5Gb/s. This means users can use existing CAT5e Ethernet cables to speed up their network. The faster interface reduces the time needed for backups and transferring large files.
Expansion options via the PCIe slot
One free PCIe Gen 3 ×8 slot allows for the installation of add-on cards. The system lets you add network adapters with speeds of 10Gb/s or 25Gb/s. The expansion cards increase data throughput for virtualisation and large data transfers. The slot also supports the installation of QM2 cards for SSD caching or USB 3.2 Gen 2 expansion cards. Users can expand the system's functionality according to their company's current needs.
M.2 NVMe SSD slots in the QNAP TS-873AeU-RP-4G NAS
Two integrated M.2 PCIe Gen 3 slots support the installation of fast NVMe SSDs. These bays are used to set up an SSD cache or create a high-speed storage pool. The system uses Qtier auto-tiering technology to optimise hard drive performance. The slots also support an Edge TPU module for artificial intelligence.
Comprehensive backup and data protection
The storage supports backup applications to protect company files and virtual machines. The Hybrid Backup Sync tool simplifies data synchronisation to remote storage and cloud services. Block-based snapshots protect the system from the consequences of ransomware and are used for quick recovery to a previous state. Users can also run virtual machines and containers.
