Qsync
Your Turbo NAS becomes a safe data center for file synchronization with huge storage. Qsync provides multiple ways of file synchronization and group file sharing, greatly enhancing the flexibility of collaboration. Whenever you add, edit, delete or rename a file on one computer, the change applies to all others linked with the Turbo NAS, so you have identical data on all your devices.

Use space effectively
Remove the files on one computer without affecting the files stored on other devices linked with the Turbo NAS. Even when someone updates the same files from another computer, Qsync will ensure that you will always have the latest files. When synchronizing files, you can choose to only sync specific subfolders within the Qsync folder.

Share team folders with different groups of people
Create subfolders within the Qsync folder, and share each with different groups of Turbo NAS users as a file exchange center. Everyone in the same subfolder is always kept up-to-date with the latest version of the files.

Quickly share files with download links
You can create download links to share files with others. This greatly reduces the time in creating user account and password for users just to share less-important documents.

Storage for Virtualization

The QNAP Business Series Turbo NAS is a virtualization-aware storage solution which supports VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, and Citrix XenServer. QNAP vSphere plug-in and QNAP SMI-S provider highly increase the productivity and efficiency.

Datastore for VMware

• VAAI for iSCSI, VAAI for NAS
  VMware vStorage APIs Integration (VAAI) is a set of APIs that allow ESXi hosts to offload processing for certain storage-related services to storage systems. The integration of QNAP NAS with VMware VAAI offers optimal performance for customers to deploy a virtualization environment.
  
  The QNAP NAS, VAAI iSCSI and VAAI NAS are VMware certified. Businesses can either select iSCSI or NFS as a centralized storage to boost performance. VAAI for iSCSI supports Full Copy (hardware-assisted copy), Block Zeroing (hardware-assisted zeroing), Hardware-assisted Locking, and Thin Provisioning with space reclaim. VAAI for NAS supports Full File Clone, Extended Statistics, and Reserve Space.
  
  The QNAP NAS uniquely supports VAAI iSCSI and VAAI NAS to enhance storage performance in a virtualized environment.
• Enhanced Performance by VAAI

• vSphere Plug-in
  The vSphere plug-in allows users to manage the QNAP Turbo NAS directly on the vSphere client, making datastore management more effective.

Storage for Microsoft Hyper-V

• ODX (Offloaded Data Transfer)
  With ODX support, the QNAP Turbo NAS becomes a high performance iSCSI storage solution under Windows Server 2012, including Hyper-V virtualized environment. QNAP storage enables full copies of virtual machines within the NAS without requiring the Windows hosts to read and write the data. This highly reduces the loading of Windows hosts and improves the performance of copy and move operations for Windows 2012 hosts using the QNAP iSCSI storage. When providing QNAP storage to a Windows 2012 file server, the end user using Windows 8 client workstation will also benefit from the Offloaded copy process for large file transfers.

• NAS Management via SCVMM
  The QNAP SMI-S provider enables management of the QNAP Turbo NAS directly through Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2012 (SCVMM).

10 Gigabit Ethernet Storage Solution for the Virtualized Data Center
The QNAP TS-x70 Series Turbo NAS supports an optional 10GbE adaptor, including SFP+ and 10G Base-T interface. The 10Gb speed increases the agility of data transmission in a virtualized environment, intensifying NFS and iSCSI connection performance, and enables more VMs with multiple transactions running concurrently without performance penalty.

Proactive Data Protection

QNAP SMART Data Migration
The data stored on the Turbo NAS is constantly monitored to reduce potential data loss and rebuilding time. If the Turbo NAS detects a possible drive failure or abnormal health status, the data will be proactively migrated to a new spare drive. This ensures valuable business assets are well stored and protected.

Supports TLER and ERC
TLER (Time-Limited Error Recovery) and ERC (Error Recovery Control) are now supported with compatible hard drives, improving drive error handling in RAID applications. This latter prevents the hard drives from prematurely failing out of RAID arrays, forcing rebuilds, and RAID volume loss. The data will be retrieved more quickly when a hard drive takes too long to respond from bad blocks.

RAID Read Error Recovery
When read errors are detected in the hard drive blocks, they are automatically corrected with healthy ones. The bad block recovery will run in the background and ensure data is well stored in the hard drives.

RAID Hot-spare and Global Hot-spare Drives
A hot spare drive can be configured so that if a hard drive in a specific RAID group fails, the hot spare drive will operate automatically. Moreover, the QNAP storage also supports global hot spare drives which allow the administrator to share the spare drives efficiently among multiple RAID Groups.

Abundant Business Features
The Turbo NAS supports abundant server applications.
	Web Server Multiple websites can be hosted on the Turbo NAS with the built-in web server and virtual host feature.
	Syslog Server By collecting and storing the logs of other network devices on the Turbo NAS with the Syslog server support, the IT administrator can monitor the status of these devices and collect the information necessary for further troubleshooting.
	RADIUS Server The RADIUS server centralizes and consolidates user authentication by maintaining a list of user accounts that are authorized for remote network access through dial-up equipment, Wi-Fi access point, or VPN connections.
	Proxy Server With the help of the Squid App add-on, the QNAP Turbo NAS can be used as a Proxy Server.

HIPAA Compliant Storage Solution
While medical data (e.g ePHI) constantly increases, IT administrators are required to develop a strategy of strong storage platforms within their medical organizations. QNAP meets the electronic requirements of HIPAA for storing PHI data by providing a base to protect the confidentiality and security of “individually identifiable health information”. QNAP provides a full range and variety of storage models that can easily fit into different scales of deployment. Choose based upon capacity, performance, and price range to meet the need of any type of medical environment.

Secure Measures for Data Storage and Access
Policy-based Unauthorized IP Blocking Users can allow, deny or auto block specified IP addresses or network domains which attempt to connect to the Turbo NAS via SSH, Telnet, HTTP(S), FTP, Samba, or AFP.
Remote Login The Turbo NAS supports remote login by SSH (secure shell) or Telnet connection.
SSL Security (HTTPS) The Turbo NAS supports HTTPS. Users can upload a secure certificate and RSA private key in X.509PEM format issued by a trusted provider to allow access the Turbo NAS by secure SSL login.
Secure FTP The Turbo NAS offers secure data transfer with SSL/TLS (explicit) encryption. Passive FTP port range setup is also supported.
Encrypted Remote Replication by Rsync The data on the Turbo NAS can be backed up to or from another Turbo NAS or rsync server over the network securely.
FIPS 140-2 Validated AES 256-bit Volume-based Data Encryption The disk volume with FIPS 140-2 validated AES 256-bit encryption can only be accessed by an authorized encryption password or key. This prevents sensitive data on the Turbo NAS from unauthorized access, even if the hard disk drives or the entire system were stolen.
Advanced Folder Permissions Advanced folder permissions allow users to configure folder/subfolder access to the Turbo NAS. With this feature enabled, users can manage the folder permissions from Microsoft Windows or the web-based management interface of the Turbo NAS without complicated procedures.
Antivirus The integrated antivirus solution for the Turbo NAS ensures business continuity by offering detection against the latest viruses, malware, worms, and Trojan horses with continuous free virus database updates.

QNAP Flexible Volume
QNAP Flexible Volume provides a more secure and flexible way to store and manage the NAS data. This next generation volume offers powerful features such as storage pooling with multiple RAID, thin-provisioned volume with space reclaim, and online capacity expansion.

Block-based iSCSI LUN
In addition to storing data, the QNAP Flexible Volume can be utilized as an iSCSI LUN at the same time. The block-based iSCSI LUN provides less overhead which improves the overall read/write performance. The blockbased iSCSI LUN takes advantage of Flexible Volume features such as thin provisioning LUN with Space Reclaim and online capacity expansion.

Online Capacity Expansion
Increase the capacity size of the LUNs, volumes, and storage pools on the fly. The Turbo NAS allows you to add more hard drives to increase the storage capacity of the storage pool on demand. The LUN and volumes can also be expanded online without interrupting the services.

Thin-provisioned Volume
Pre-allocate storage to give the appearance of having more capacity than actually available. This allows you to consume storage on demand as data is written to disk, instead of having capacity ahead of time.

Space Reclaim
Space reclaim complements thin provisioning so storage can be recovered and used for other NAS applications. Normally when data is deleted in a volume the storage capacity cannot be transferred back to the overall storage pool. But with space reclaim, space can be recovered and allocated back to the overall storage pool. This provides a much more efficient space usage.

Alert for Volume/LUN Threshold
An alert can be created once a LUN or volume reaches a particular threshold size with email and SMS notifications. This prevents the storage or volume from running out of space, and the administrator can add more storage space or expand an existing volume if necessary.

App Center

Powerful, organized, rich-in-content
The new App Center makes it easy to find and install all sorts of apps and also acts as a central platform to manage and update your installed apps.

Mobility and Remote Access

Qfile
You can manage as many Turbo NAS units as you want with Qfile and conveniently connect to any of them on the login page. Enabling the auto-upload function will let your pictures and photo albums automatically sync to your Turbo NAS and works as a real-time backup of your precious photos. Qfile displays a thumbnail list view for you to easily identify the file type at a glance. You can move, copy, rename or delete files on the Turbo NAS, all with your mobile device.

Qmanager
Qmanager lets you monitor the CPU usage, memory usage, system event info, and active users. You can also remotely check the connection status or logged in users to prevent unauthorized access. Remotely restart or shut down your Turbo NAS, and use Qmanager to turn the application services on and off. You can use Wake on LAN to power on your NAS. It only takes a single click and you are done!
