AMD R-Series quad-core CPU, up to 64GB RAM, and AES-NI encryption acceleration
The TS-x73U is equipped with a next-gen AMD R-Series RX-421ND quad-core 2.1 GHz processor (burst up to 3.4 GHz), dual
channel 8GB/16GB/64GB DDR4 RAM (upgradable to 64GB), and four Gigabit LAN ports for lightning-fast multi-tasking with low
power consumption and the ability to deliver up to 1531 MB/s throughput with a 10GbE configuration. The TS-x73U's accelerated
encryption engine with AES-NI provides unmatched encryption performance in its class (up to 1315 MB/s with AES 256-bit full
NAS volume encryption) to boost system performance, security, and ensure the safety of sensitive business data stored in the NAS.

M.2 SSD & 2.5” SSD cache with Qtier optimization
The TS-x73U supports 2.5” SSD for caching to increase IOPS performance, and provides higher transfer speeds and reliability with
support for two additional M.2 2280/2260SATA 6Gb/s SSDs. Using an SSD cache boosts overall system performance, and is perfect
for improving the overall workflow of random IOPS demanding applications such as virtualization. The TS-x73U combines M.2
SATA SSD, 2.5” SATA SSD and high-capacity 3.5” HDD in one box to effectively realize tiered storage for exceptional application
performance and lower TCO of storage at the same time.

Higher reliability and performance with RAID 50/60
Aiming to provide the best practices for enterprise systems to SMB customers, QNAP adapted the nested RAID level management
and now supports the RAID 50/60 Storage Pool configurations. RAID 50/60 offers more flexibility for business users to freely create
a highly protected storage with increased performance and capacity using either all HDD for backup or all flash storage for online
video editing or database service.

Optimized performance for VMware
Virtualization with iSER
The TS-x73U series with dual 10GbE SFP+ ports (LAN10G2SF-MLX) supports the iSCSI Extensions for RDMA
(iSER) protocol to boost data transfer performance of the
NAS as VMware®ESXi storage and to reduce the CPU load
of the ESXi server. iSER can provide up to 20% of increased
performance, providing an essential tool to optimize
demanding virtualization applications.
Note: To create an iSER connection with VMware ESXi, the server
requires a Mellanox® ConnectX-3 Pro compatible network card
and switches compatible with Mellanox® or with PFC (Priority
Flow Control) support.

QTS 4.3 – The most intelligent and intuitive NAS operating system
The TS-x73U natively supports the new 64-bit QTS 4.3 operating system. QTS 4.3 provides robust features to enhance
management efficiency, including the intelligent Qtier™ 2.0 that learns from NAS usage, analyzes system performance and peak
usage hours to process auto tiering; Qfiling that helps categorize files based on schedules to make organizing files automatic
and efficient, and much more. With its intuitive and simplified user interface, QTS features an intelligent desktop allows you to
find desired functions quickly, create or group shortcuts, monitor important system information on a real-time basis, and open
multiple application windows to run multiple tasks concurrently, bringing greater working efficiency. QTS breaks the barriers of
devices, platforms, and geography to bring optimized cloud experiences and incorporates advanced features.
