A Compact, 1U rackmount NAS for small and midsize business needs.

We’ve just touched on some of the most popular applications here, do yourself a favor and explore the QNAP application library.

The QNAP TS-h1290FX is a 12-bay, all-flash NVMe NAS powered by an AMD EPYC CPU and bringing impressive performance with 25GbE.

Synology is showcasing new storage solutions focusing on data protection, disaster recovery, and edge solutions at VMware Explore 2023 in Las Vegas this week. This includes the new active-active SAN UC3400, active-passive system SA3400D, and DiskStation Manager (DSM) 7.2.

With the launch of TrueNAS SCALE 22.12.2 earlier this year, there is clear intent by the iX team to talk a little more to the enterprise. Some of the upscaled messaging comes via new hardware systems and support for managing NVDIMMs and improvements in HA and replication features. But another major push has come around

Synology has introduced two new dual-controller systems to its product portfolio, the UC3400 and SA3400D. The UC3400 is designed for mission-critical SAN storage, offering an active-active system for efficient high availability. The SA3400D is a versatile active-passive system suitable for both NAS and SAN applications.

QNAP has recently launched its TS-hx87XU-RP series, a line of NAS devices available in 9, 18, 22, and 30-bay models. The family of NAS integrates the Intel Xeon E-2300 series processors with 10GbE and 2.5GbE Multi-Gig connectivity and an HDD/SSD hybrid storage architecture that balances performance, capacity, and cost. Under review today is the 18-bay

Continuing on with our WD Gold 22TB SMB performance series, we will look at how these enterprise-grade drives fare when populated inside the QNAP TVS-h1288X. In our last review, we were impressed with the results when combining the 22TB WD drives with the Synology DiskStation DS1821+. Configurations like these will certainly give businesses more flexibility

Back in August, we reviewed the WD Gold 22TB CMR HDD, which was highlighted by OptiNAND-enabled ArmorCache technology. We previously tested the Golds via our 36-bay Supermicro Storage SuperServer (SSG-540P-E1CTR36H) with TrueNAS installed (RAID2Z); however, we wanted to gauge the performance (and value) of the 22TB Golds when used in an SMB environment.
