Ultra home multimedia applications

10GbE ready, 400 TB NAS solution and virtualization-aware storage         

QNAP presented a powerful 400 TB NAS Solution for  virtualization combining its high-end Turbo NAS TS-x79U series with new additions of REXP-1200U-RP and REXP-1600U-RP. It provides a flexible solution for  IT administrators to expand the total capacity of the Turbo NAS up to 400TB. Equipped  with many other powerful features including 10GbE ready, SSD cache, VMware VAAI  and vSphere Client plug-in, Microsoft SCVMM/ODX, and thin-provisioned volume,  the Turbo NAS not only effectively optimizes efficiency and reliability in  virtualization applications, but also serves as a high performance NAS for data  backup.         

“The  great storage expansion solution will relieve IT administrators from having to  invest big at initial setup,” said David Tsao, product manager of QNAP. “The  solution can largely reduce inflexibility in IT budget allocation for  businesses that do not see rapid growth of storage demand in the near future,  but in some point of time afterward.”         

QNAP  has been continuously improving user experience in virtualization. The QNAP  virtualization-aware solution offers optimal performance for businesses to deploy a  virtualization environment.
