QuTS hero
Featuring highly reliable data protection and data reduction, and optimized for SSD-based applications
Learn More: QuTS hero operating system, How to migrate data & folder permissions between QTS and QuTS hero with HBS3?
1. QTS and QuTS hero use different file systems. You must remove all the drives from the TS-873A before switching from QTS to QuTS hero.
2. QuTS hero requires a NAS with at least 8 GB memory.
3. Inline Data Deduplication requires a NAS with at least 16 GB memory (at least 32 GB memory is recommended for optimal performance).
4. It is recommended to create an SSD RAID with at least two SSDs for the QuTS hero system drive to attain optimal system performance. Please note that M.2 SSD hot-swapping is only supported by M.2 SSD slots on PCIe cards (such as the QM2). M.2 SSD slots that are built into the NAS do not support hot-swapping.
5. It is recommended to upgrade the memory to 16GB or more when using the TS-x73A series NAS with the QuTS hero operating system, especially if installing multiple QPKG applications, to ensure better system stability and performance.
Obtain performance benefits from M.2 SSD caching
The TS-873A features 2 M.2 NVMe SSD slots for you to enjoy SSD caching or Qtier auto tiering Technology
Improve random data access speeds with an SSD cache
SSD caches accelerate IOPS performance and reduce latency for storage volumes. They are perfect for IOPS-demanding applications (including databases and virtualization) and can significantly improve overall workflows.
Maximize the value of SSDs with Qtier Technology
Qtier™ Technology empowers the TS-873A with auto tiering that helps continuously optimize storage efficiency by automatically moving data between M.2 SSDs, 2.5-inch SSDs, and high-capacity HDDs based on the data's access frequency. Qtier™ 2.0 features IO-awareness that empowers SSD-tiered storage with a cache-like reserved space to handle burst I/O in real time, greatly maximizing the advantages of SSDs.
Note: Qtier Technology is supported by QTS
Upgrade to 10GbE and abundant capability with PCIe expansion
The TS-873A features two PCIe Gen 3 x4 slots that allows for various expansion cards for expanding application potential.
Note: TS-873A uses high-profile expansion cards
Easy and Secure File Management
File Station allows direct management of files stored on the TS-873A and in the cloud. Users can easily upload files from their PC, drag/drop files between folders, rename/delete files, and configure file/folder permissions to prevent unauthorized access. Microsoft Office Online can also be used to directly view/edit Microsoft Office documents stored on the TS-873A. Confidential/sensitive data can be encrypted to add extra security.
