The new line also features a 9-bay hybrid storage model that supports four 3.5-inch HDDs and five 2.5-inch SSDs. All NAS solutions in the TVS-x72XU series are equipped with two 10GbE SFP+ SmartNIC ports, PCIe expansion slots, and HDMI 2.0 (4K@60Hz) output. They are designed for high-speed storage, collaboration, backup, disaster recovery, and iSCSI applications. With the latest version of QTS (4.4.0), the TVS-x72XU series provides businesses with a “well-rounded” NAS solution that focuses on performance, reliability, scalability, and comprehensive business-ready capabilities. ![](https://www.storagereview.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/TVS-1672XU-RP.png) The TVS-x72XU features up to 64 GB dual-channel DDR4 memory, AES-NI encryption acceleration and integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630 for 4K (H.264) video transcoding. The equipped PCIe slots also give users the option to install 10GbE/ 25GbE/ 40GbE network cards for bandwidth-demanding applications, QM2 cards for more M.2 SSDs, and graphics cards for use cases that involve heavy GPU tasks. In addition to the two 10GbE SFP+ ports, the TVS-x72XU supports the company’s new 25GbE NIC (QXG-25G2SF-CX4), which improves file sharing and intensive data transfer rates, enables high-speed remote backup using Hybrid Backup Sync, and supports iSCSI Extension for RDMA. Moreover, SSD caching helps the QNAP series thrive in IOPS-demanding applications while allocating SSD extra over-provisioning for potential performance and endurance levels of enterprise-grade SSDs**.** Qtier auto-tiering capabilities also allow users to install the minimal number of necessary SSDs for optimal storage efficiency. **QNAP TVS-x72XU Key specifications** - TVS-872XU-i3-4G: 2U rackmount with 8 drive bays, Intel® Core™ i3-8100 quad-core 3.6 GHz processor, 4 GB RAM (4 GB x1), 350W single PSU - TVS-872XU-RP-i3-4G: 2U rackmount with 8 drive bays, Intel® Core™ i3-8100 quad-core 3.6 GHz processor, 4 GB RAM (4 GB x1), 300W redundant PSU - TVS-1272XU-RP-i3-4G: 2U rackmount with 12 drive bays, Intel® Core™ i3-8100 quad-core 3.6 GHz processor, 4 GB RAM (4 GB x1), 300W redundant PSU - TVS-1672XU-RP-i3-8G: 3U rackmount with 16 drive bays, Intel® Core™ i3-8100 quad-core 3.6 GHz processor, 8 GB RAM (4 GB x2), 500W redundant PSU - TVS-2472XU-RP-i5-8G: 4U rackmount with 24 drive bays, Intel® Core™ i5-8500 six-core 3.0 GHz processor (burst up to 4.0 GHz), 8 GB RAM (4 GB x2), 800W redundant PSU - Up to 64 GB DDR4 RAM (4 x 16 GB DDR4 UDIMM modules); hot-swappable 3.5-inch/2.5-inch SATA 6Gbps HDDs/SSDs; 2x 10GbE SFP+ SmartNIC ports, 4x Gigabit LAN ports; 4x PCle slots (One slot is pre-installed with a 10GbE NIC; TVS-2472XU-RP provides 5x PCIe slots); 2x Type-C USB 3.1 Gen2 10Gbps ports, 4x Type-A USB 3.1 Gen2 10Gbps ports; 1x HDMI 2.0 (4K @60Hz) output - TVS-972XU-i3-4G: 1U rackmount with four 3.5-inch HDD and five 2.5-inch SSD drive bays, Intel® Core™ i3-8100 quad-core 3.6 GHz processor, 4 GB RAM (4 GB x1), 250W single PSU - TVS-972XU-RP-i3-4G: 1U rackmount with four 3.5-inch HDD and five 2.5-inch SSD drive bays, Intel® Core™ i3-8100 quad-core 3.6 GHz processor, 4 GB RAM (4 GB x1), 300W redundant PSU - Up to 64 GB DDR4 RAM (4 x 16 GB DDR4 UDIMM modules); hot-swappable 3.5-inch/2.5-inch SATA 6Gbps HDDs/SSDs; 2x 10GbE SFP+ SmartNIC ports, 2x Gigabit LAN ports; 1x PCle Gen3 slot; 2x Type-C USB 3.1 Gen2 10Gbps ports, 2x Type-A USB 3.1 Gen2 10Gbps ports, 2x Type-A USB 3.0 ports; 1x HDMI 2.0 (4K @60Hz) output **Availability** The TVS-x72XU NAS series (8, 12, 16, and 24 models) are available now while the TVS-972XU and TVS-972XU-RP are expected to be released soon.
