Dual-core high performance
The TS-351 is designed for home and small offices, allowing you to effortlessly manage files and enjoy multimedia entertainment while also providing reliable data protection. It uses an Intel® Celeron® J1800 dual-core 2.41 GHz processor (burst up to 2.58 GHz) and 2GB/4GB DDR3L memory (upgradable to 8GB), provides 3.5-inch SATA 3Gb/s and 6Gb/s drive bays, and supports AES 256-bit encryption for both full NAS volumes and shared folders, ensuring system performance while protecting the confidentiality of sensitive business data stored in the NAS.
Absolute performance with AMD Ryzen™ and up to 64GB RAM
Powered by a high-performance AMD Ryzen™ 3 1200 processor with AES-NI encryption acceleration and up to 64GB DDR4 RAM, the TS-351 delivers aggressive yet power-smart performance to meet your multitasking demands. For resource-demanding business applications such as VDI, R&D, private cloud, and server virtualization, look no further than the TS-351.
Elegant appearance, effective airflow
The TS-351 sports a stylish and elegant look with an industrial design concept to provide effective airflow and better cooling, ensuring smooth performance even under the heaviest loads. The tool-less 3.5-inch hard drive installation allows easier system setup and maintenance, while the front-panel LEDs assist in viewing system status.
M.2 SSDs for cache acceleration or efficient tiered storage
The TS-351 supports SSD caching, and features two M.2 slots that support M.2 PCIe (Gen2 x1, 5Gb/s) NVMe SSDs with 2280 form factors (sold separately) for boosting the overall workflow of intensive, IOPS-demanding applications. Moreover, Qtier™ technology empowers the TS-351 with auto tiering that helps continuously optimize storage efficiency across M.2 SSDs, a 2.5-inch SATA SSD, and high-capacity HDDs with around-the-clock acceleration. The new Qtier™ 2.0 features IO-awareness that empowers SSD-tiered storage with a cache-like reserved space to handle burst I/O in real time, greatly maximizing the advantages of SSD.
Enjoy optimized SSD performance with extra over-provisioning
With SSD prices continuing to become more affordable for home and small business users, there's never been a better time for using SSDs in your NAS to enjoy higher performance, faster file backups, smoother multimedia experiences, and optimized virtualization applications. The latest QTS 4.3.5 takes SSD functionality even further by supporting software-defined SSD RAID extra over-provisioning (OP) that enables you to allocate additional OP space from 1% to 60%, beneficial for optimal SSD random write speeds and extended lifespan with higher endurance. Now you can use affordable consumer SSDs for the TS-351, adjust the SSD OP, and potentially attain performance and endurance levels similar to enterprise-grade SSDs.
Snapshots protect your data against ransomware
Snapshots help protect your data by fully recording the NAS system state and metadata. Use Storage & Snapshots Manager or File Station to easily manage snapshots and quickly restore the system to a normal state if an error occurs. QNAP snapshots are block-based and only record the changed data. Not only does this save storage space but also reduces the time required to back up and restore data. The TS-351 with 4GB RAM can support up to 256 snapshots per NAS and 256 snapshots per volume/LUN.
Have fun with your NAS!
The TS-351 transforms how to enjoy your photos, music and videos throughout your home and beyond. It also supports 360-degree panorama photos and videos!
Take photos anytime, anywhere and manage them with Photo Station. Organize photos by folders or albums, and view them in several modes.
With powerful smart playlists, comprehensive search functions and a user-friendly interface, Music Station is more than just music to your ears.
