This QNAP runs quickly and quietly. The VM is Microsoft Server 2019, and it is very fast. I have it configured to boot off of a RAID-1 SSD drive array, and the AMD Ryzen processor is very fast. Adding RAM and the SSD drives was EASY. Very nice design on the case, easy access 3 screws and that was it. I added five 16-TB drives in RAID-5, and it is used as a Veeam Offsite Repository target server.

Great unit



i was looking for a new Plex server for full 4k HD remux HEVC mkv files. This is it!!! Play files without issue using LG tv plex app. If youre looking for a new Plex server you wont regret this purchase.


Affordable. And works very well

Very easy to set up (automatic wizard or 'manual') Very easy to install physical drive (no screws) Lightening fast

This was supper easy to set up!!




Decent price for the hardware, sleek design, upgradable RAM, software updates are frequent, drive bays are solid, can control fan speed for the CPU

Reasonable speed,quiet,has a on/off switch on it

Easy to configure. The item arrived in Raid 1 (Mirrored) so it was only 1800GB available space. This is a backup device, so I needed Raid 0 (stripped) for full size. It was really easy to change Raid types, set up my shared folders and stsslyart the copies. 1.4 TB later and it's already beginning to fill to where it will live it's life. Firmware upgrade was a snap also. Everything worked flawlessly.

DDR5 gives on-die error correction Extra bays give cache options Compatible RAM upgrades TrueNAS compatibility

- Easier than I expected to setup; - smaller than I expected, which is great!; - quieter than I expected! Overall Im surprised with the quality, ease of use and speed.
