Taipei, Taiwan, February 4, 2013 – QNAP^® Systems,   Inc. today released one case study, demonstrating how QNAP Turbo NAS helps an  Austrian education institution increase efficiency in file sharing and  management among four workgroups in different cities in Austria."By  releasing the case study, we hope to provide those organizations planning on  adopting a NAS solution to improve work efficiency with a clear idea about how  it can really help," said Edward Lin, director of marketing of QNAP.         

The Student  Union (called ÖH) of FH Oberösterreich (University of Applied Sciences Upper  Austria) is an inter-campus organization providing counseling services for  nearly 5,000 students. To create wonderful campus magazines regularly, the  Chairman of ÖH had to organize teamwork with four workgroups in different cities  in Upper Austria. To ensure all team members access the files in a timely  manner and share digital  assets without  the hassle, he deployed one unit of TS-659 Pro II to store and share a large number of  content-rich files. The TS-659  Pro II has successfully served as an efficient file sharing system among teams, and also built up  a secure private cloud to store and share important data.         

“When it comes to file sharing, just upload the files to  Turbo NAS via MyCloudNAS service, and then generate a download link for quick  file sharing. No more geographical restriction and inconvenience in sharing large size file,” said Daniel Zeilbauer, Chairman of  ÖH. “The TS-659 Pro II has taken us to the new level in  terms of file management,” concluded Zeilbauer.         

The TS-659 Pro II is a high  performance NAS for SMB, satisfying various business needs such as storage,  file sharing, backup, and virtualization applications, and more. Supporting 4TB  hard drives, the TS-659 Pro II accommodates up to 24TB large storage capacity.  Embedded powerful Intel^® Atom^™ dual core processor,  it delivers blasting fast data transfer speed. It features  cross-platform file sharing that enables smooth file sharing among users using Windows^®, Mac^®, Linux and UNIX  systems, and supports particle business applications such as Windows ACL/LDAP,  Windows AD, Advanced folder permission, RTRR, AES 256-bit volume-based data encryption, IP  blocking, FTP Server, Printer Server, and so on.         

MyCloudNAS service enables users to access the Turbo NAS via Internet  from anywhere. Moreover, the TS-659 Pro II is  an efficient storage center with advanced iSCSI services, being VMware^® Ready^™,  Citrix^® Ready^™ and Microsoft Hyper-V compatible as an ideal shared storage solution  for virtualized and clustered environments.
