"We're pleased to extend our collaboration with QNAP to bring innovative NAS solutions to the Small and Medium Business (SMB) market" said Dilip Ramachandran, senior director of marketing, AMD Embedded Solutions. "The AMD G-Series SoC is well suited to provide high performance and flexibility at low power consumption levels."

Featuring the latest QTS 4.2 operating system, the TS-x63U series provides ever-comprehensive virtualization applications. Users can run multiple applications on Windows/Linux/UNIX/Android based virtual machines on the NAS with the Virtualization Station; operate multiple isolated Linux systems on the NAS as well as download apps from the built-in Docker Hub Registry by using the Container Station which integrates LXC and Docker lightweight virtualization technologies; and simplify virtual storage management for VMware, Microsoft and Citrix virtualization solutions.



The QTS Storage Manager can be used to manage the entire NAS capacity, and quickly create volume/LUN snapshots for easy backup, restoration and cloning. The TS-x63U series provides an easy way to immediately expand the total storage with up to 24 drives (192TB total raw capacity with 8TB drives) by connecting one QNAP expansion enclosure (12-bay UX-1200U-RP or 8-bay UX-800U-RP). SMBs can freely enlarge their storage capacity to tackle storage-intensive applications such as video surveillance, archiving large data, TV broadcast storage, and more.



The TS-x63U series functions as an all-in-one NAS with feature-rich business applications. Cross-platform file sharing for Windows, Mac, and Linux/UNIX users makes the TS-x63U series an excellent centralized storage solution. The support for Windows AD, LDAP directory services and Windows ACL boosts productivity for permission settings. It can work as a domain controller for Windows, and provides flexible backup solutions for Windows and Mac and disaster recovery solutions with RTRR, rsync and cloud storage backup.



QNAP offers versatile apps to improve work productivity: Qsirch quickens NAS data searching with its powerful near real-time full-text search engine; Qsync adds central configuration mode and remotely erasing Qsync folder, and is helpful for group file sharing and collaboration; Q'center allows central management of multiple QNAP NAS units; and Gmail Backup helps archive important emails in the NAS.
