TS-809 Pro Turbo NAS

Overview

Modern business requires a reliable and secure storage solution to back up,
protect, and manage data effectively. The TS-809 Pro is the powerful 8-bay
high-volume member of QNAP’s award-winning Turbo NAS family designed
for business users. It is a NAS of class-leading performance, supports

server in an economic way. Moreover, the “Virtual Space Allocation” (Thin
Provisioning)
allocate the capacity of iSCSI LUN (Logical Unit Number) at the beginning

regardless of the physical volume capacity.
advanced RAID configurations for data protection, built-in iSCSI target
service, AES 256-bit volume-based encryption, lots of enterprise-grade
server features, and delivers high reliability for multiple concurrent
applications.

Versatile Applications for Business

The TS-809 Pro supports file sharing across Linux, UNIX, Mac, and Windows

platforms. Versatile business applications are supported, e.g. file server, FTP

server with encryption, printer server, web server, and encrypted remote

Superior performance and advanced RAID redundancy

The TS-809 Pro is featured with Intel

®

Core™2 Duo 2.4GHz CPU and 2GB
DDRII memory. It supports RAID 0/ 1/ 5/ 6/ 5+Spare, JBOD, online RAID
capacity expansion, and online RAID level migration.

replication by Rsync. Also, Windows AD (Active Directory) is supported to
help create an easy-to-access environment and lower the maintenance cost.
SSH login and web page SSL login enable users to transfer, store, and share
data securely.

iSCSI Solution with Flexible Virtual Space Allocation

The TS-809 Pro can serve as a NAS and an iSCSI target server. The built-in
iSCSI target feature provides an affordable IP-SAN (Storage Area Network)
alternative. The server manager can set up the NAS to expand the storage
capacity for existing application servers, such as database server and mail

Secure Data Protection by AES 256-bit Volume-based Encryption

The TS-809 Pro’s dominant ‘volume-based encryption’ feature secures the
server data by AES 256-bit encryption. Even if the hard drives were stolen,
there is no need to fear the confidential would be leaked since the data can
only be accessed by an authorized password.

Iometer is a benchmark tool to
test disk performance. It is a
useful indicator for the
measurement of the I/O
transfer rate and the average
I/O response time.

• Benchmark program: Iometer 2006.07.27

• Client PC: Intel® Core™2 Quad 2.34GHz
CPU, 2GB RAM, NVIDIA nForce Networking
Controller, Windows Vista 32-Bit SP1

Network Failover

Failover allows the NAS to
sustain the failure of one
network port to provide
continuous services.

Load-Balancing

Bandwidth aggregation is
supported to boost the file
transfer speed (works with
managed Ethernet switch
with 802.3ad configured).

Multi-IP Setting

The NAS can be deployed
with two different IP
settings for sharing among
different workgroups in two
different subnets.

Intelligent Power Management

Hard Disk Standby

The hard disks can be configured to enter standby mode if there is no disk access
within the specified period.

Schedule Power on/off

The flexible schedule power on/off feature is now provided on the NAS for IT
administrators to manage the NAS server’s up time according to the working hours.

UPS Support

The NAS supports the majority of USB UPS devices which enables the users to
store the data in time and avoid critical data loss when power outage occurs
during data transfer.

Practical System Management Tools

S.M.A.R.T. & Advanced HDD Health Scanning (HHS)

The NAS supports Hard Disk Drive S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting
Technology) for monitoring the HDD status. Moreover, the NAS is embedded with HHS
(HDD Health Scan) which supports disk checking and bad blocks scanning.

Instant SMS/ Email Alert

The server manager can configure the SMTP server and SMSC server settings on the
NAS in order to receive instant system warning or error messages by email or SMS.
