Qnap TS-451DeU 4-Bay 1U Rackmount NAS With 2.0GHz Processor, 2x2.5GbE ports and 2xM.2 2280 6Gb SATA SSD Slots

Qnap Systems, Inc. introduced the TS-451DeU, a dual-core 2.0GHz short depth rackmount 4-bay NAS.

Featuring a 1U 12-inch-depth chassis that allow installation in small media cabinets or places with a lot of cabling, it provides dual 2.5GbE ports, 2xM.2 2280 6Gb SATA SSD slots, storage scalability, and highly-anticipated business and media features. It is a cost-effective entry-level rackmount NAS.

“The TS-451DeU presents a modern 2.5GbE NAS solution for businesses to tackle everyday tasks like file backup/restore, and to boost team collaboration with higher productivity,” said Jason Hsu, product manager. “As the short depth design is suited for media cabinets, the TS-451DeU is also an ideal multimedia server with the support of video streaming and transcoding.“

The 4-bay TS-451DeU is powered by an Intel Corp.‘ Celeron J4025 dual-core 2.0GHz processor (bursts up to 2.9GHz), features 2GB DDR4 memory as standard (expandable to 8GB), and supports AES-NI encryption engine and 6Gb SATA drives. Two built-in 2.5GbE RJ45 ports allow performance network deployment and deliver up to 5Gb/s under a port trunking configuration. Users can also leverage the firm’s range of networking solutions (sold separately) to build collaborative, future-proof IT infrastructure for bandwidth-hungry applications – for example, 10GbE/5GbE Multi-Gig PCIe expansion cards to upgrade their computers, and 10GbE Multi-Gig switches to connect multiple workstations and devices. The TS-451DeU has two M.2 SSD slots for optional caching configuration to boost application performance, and supports Qtier auto-tiering for storage efficiency.

The TS-451DeU meets storage demands for security, backup, file sharing, and central management. Qsync streamlines cross-team file sync to boost productivity. Block-based snapshot ensures data protection and instant restoration, and works effectively vs. encryption-based virus threats. HBS (Hybrid Backup Sync) with 2.5GbE connectivity facilitates local/remote/cloud backup tasks, and saves time and storage with the help of QuDedup technology that de-duplicates backup files at the source.

It features a built-in App Center that includes install-on-demand apps to increase NAS application potential, such as hosting multiple VMs and containers, deploying a cloud storage gateway, using a Plex media server, creating a multi-zone multimedia hub, implementing a professional video surveillance system.
