Qnap TS-x31K Series Desktop 1/2/4-Bay NAS With 1.7GHz Quad-core for Home and Personal Cloud Storage

Qnap Systems, Inc. launched the quad-core TS-x31K series NAS (including 1-bay, 2-bay and 4-bay models) that provides centralized data backup and management, file access and sharing, feature-rich multimedia applications and secure Snapshots protection.

Featuring a compact pure white minimalist design, the TS-x31K blends in with any home décor and takes up little space, making it a solution for home users to build reliable private cloud storage.

The TS-x31K series is powered by a quad-core 1.7GHz processor for home performance. With 1GB RAM, Gigabit LAN (1-bay: one GbE port; 2-bay and 4-bay: two GbE ports), 6Gb SATA, and AES-256 bit encryption, it delivers fast and stable connectivity. Featuring tool-less and lockable drive bays, the TS-x31K makes installation easier while also ensuring the drives are safe and secure.

“The quad-core TS-x31K series streamlines home storage and multimedia applications, allowing users to enjoy the convenience and enjoyment of a personal cloud. Users can easily access, manage and share files using an intuitive user interface, while also easily accessing files remotely by using dedicated mobile apps,“ said Jason Hsu, product manager.

The TS-x31K series is a home data center that provides well-rounded storage, sharing, backup, synchronization, and data protection. Users can regularly backup data from their Windows and macOS computers and from mobile devices, then further protect their backup data by saving to another NAS or cloud storage as an off-site copy using HBS (Hybrid Backup Sync). Users can enable snapshot protection to effectively mitigate the threat of ransomware and to restore files to previously-recorded states.

The TS-x31K provides a range of multimedia applications, including Photo Station, Video Station and Music Station, allowing users to manage and view their rich media collections. Users can also transform the TS-x31K into a Plex Media Server. More useful functions include: use Surveillance Station to build a secure surveillance system; Qsync can automatically sync files between NAS, mobile phones and computers. Users can also remotely access the TS-x31K using dedicated mobile apps and the myQnapcloud service.
