The TBS-453A M.2 SSD NASbook
QNAP Systems has officially launched the world's first M.2 SSD-based 4-bay Network Attached Storage (NAS) system, the TBS-453A NASbook.
Based on a quad-core Intel Celeron N3150 1.60 GHz processor with support for up to 8GB of dual-channel DDR3L-1600 SO-DIMM memory, the new QNAP TBS-453A NASbook has support for up to four M.2 (2280/2260/2242) SATA 6Gbps SSDs and not only offers full NAS functionality in a compact design but also adds a couple of other features as well.
With dimensions set at 230x165x25mm, it is obvious that TBS-453A NASbook is quite small for a NAS, which is mostly thanks to the usage of M.2 SSDs for storage. The biggest part of any NAS are actual storage bays, usually with room for at least two 3.5-inch HDDs, so the advantage of TBS-453A NASbook is quite obvious. It also offers support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 5 + hot spare, JBOD and single disk volume types.
In addition to the support for four M.2 SATA 6Gbps SSDs, the new QNAP TBS-453A NASbook also comes with two Gigabit Ethernet ports and three Gigabit switch ports, four USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0 port, two HDMI outputs support up to 4K 2160p UHD resolution, two 3.5mm microphone jacks, built-in speaker and one line out jack, for for amplifier or headphone amplifier.
All these specifications allows the QNAP TBS 453A NASbook to function not only as a NAS but also as a file station, backup station, FTP server, four-port LAN switch, surveillance recording device, media player or even a karaoke machine.
As most QNAP NAS systems, the TBS-453A NASbook is also based on QTS 4.2 OS (based on embedded Linux) and supports most Linux apps. When it comes to security, the TBS-453A NASbook comes with Intel AES-NI hardware-accelerated encryption with AES 256-bit encryption. It also comes with an IR controller.
The new QNAP TBS-453A NASbook will be available in a couple of versions, featuring 4GB or 8GB of RAM and with two or four 240GB M.2 SSDs or as a barebone, without SSDs. Although it should already be available, according to QNAP, we could not find it listed in retail/e-tail store so there is no word on the price.
