Network attached storage manufacturer QNAP has announced the immediate availability of its new quad-core 3-bay NAS storage solution which takes the form of the QNAP TS-332X. Offering a RAID 5 array for balancing capacity and protection with the fewest disks together with a 10GbE SFP+ port, three M.2 SATA 6Gb/s SSD slots, and supports SSD caching and Qtier auto-tiering technology. Dan Lin, Product Manager of QNAP explains a little more.
“The TS-332X is a small NAS, but it is packed full of competitive features. It allows for RAID 5 protection in a budget configuration, supports M.2 SATA SSDs, and performs efficient tiered storage. It is a cost-effective 10GbE NAS that empowers even the most budget-conscious small offices to upgrade their entire IT infrastructure.”
The QNAP TS-332X NAS is equipped with an AnnapurnaLabs, Alpine AL-324 quad-core 1.7 GHz Cortex-A57 processor which can be supported by 2, 4 or up to 16 GB of DDR4 RAM and offers a 10GbE SFP+ port. Configuration options include :

“The TS-332X supports up to three SATA 6Gb/s M.2 SSDs with 2280 form factors (sold separately), allowing users to create a high-capacity SSD cache for boosting IOPS-demanding applications, or RAID 5 tiered storage with balanced performance and redundancy protection. Coupled with QNAP’s Qtier technology that empowers the NAS with auto tiering, storage efficiency is optimized constantly across M.2 SSDs, 2.5-inch SSDs, and high-capacity HDDs with improved overall system performance.”
