QNAP TL-D400S

The TL SATA JBOD can be used with QNAP NAS solutions, such as setting RAID parameters and creating a storage pool with the Storage and Snapshots app, and can be used as NAS external storage device. In addition, the QNAP JBOD Manager desktop utility can easily display information about the JBOD status, health, fan speed, and firmware updates.

The TL SATA JBOD supports both 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch SATA 6Gb/s drives while the TL-R1200S-RP features a redundant power supply to optimize system uptime.
