Qnap TS-h1886XU-RP R2 18-Bay Rackmount 2U Enterprise NAS With Xeon D-1622 and 4x2.5GbE RJ45 Ports

Qnap Systems, Inc. launched the TS-h1886XU-RP R2 enterprise-grade rackmount NAS model which runs on QuTS hero OS, a ZFS-based file system.

Powered by Xeon D-1622 processor and 32GB DDR4 ECC memory, it delivers reliable server-grade performance to help enterprises tackle business IT challenges, including high-speed centralized file storage, virtualization, backup, DR, and cloud storage gateways.

“The TS-h1886XU-RP R2 provides enterprises with a high-performance cost-effective 10GbE NAS. Compared to its predecessor, it has 4x2.5GbE ports, making file transfer and information sharing more efficient. The TS-h1886XU-RP R2 is fully equipped to support virtualization applications, remote backup and disaster recovery, cloud storage gateways, and security management to maximize the efficiency and value of enterprise IT,” said Jerry Deng, product manager.

The NAS serves as a hybrid storage device with 12x3.5-inch 6Gb SATA drive-bays, 6x2.5-inch SATA 6Gb SSD slots. It features dual channel DDR4 ECC (expandable to 128GB) which can detect and correct single-bit errors, along with dual redundant power supplies for enhanced system reliability. It has 3 PCIe slots, one of which has a preinstalled dual-port 10GbE SFP+ network expansion card that supports performance RDMA protocols (including RoCE and RoCEv2) which reduces CPU load and application latency. The PCIe slots support adding 25GbE network cards, an entry-level graphics card (supports accelerating AI-enhanced apps such as image recognition), a QM2 card to add M.2 SSD caching, or a SAS expansion card to connect multiple storage expansion devices and achieve petabyte-level storage.

The TS-h1886XU-RP R2 uses the ZFS-based QuTS hero OS. Designed with a focus on data integrity, the ZFS file system is self-healing and WORM compliant. It also supports block-level inline de-dupe and compression for optimal storage utilization, faster data transfer, and longer SSD lifespan. It also features up to 65,535 snapshots and real-time SnapSync to record system status and data.

Qnap App Center also offers a selection of apps to expand NAS potential, including natively hosting VMs and containers, flexible local/remote/cloud backup, Google Workspace and Microsoft 365backup, VMwareand Hyper-V virtual machine backup, setting up cloud storage gateways to deploy a hybrid cloud, with WireGuard VPN supported.
