QNAP NAS 2-Bay Tower Intel Quad-Core, 8GB RAM, PCIe Slot, Dual 2.5GbE, HDMI 2.1 & SSD Caching TS-264
QNAP NAS 2-Bay Tower Intel Quad-Core, 8GB RAM, PCIe Slot, Dual 2.5GbE, HDMI 2.1 & SSD Caching TS-264 - Description
The QNAP TS-264 is a compact yet formidable 2-bay desktop NAS engineered to meet the demanding storage, backup, and multimedia needs of modern professionals and growing businesses. Driven by an Intel® Celeron® quad-core processor and integrated with 8GB RAM, this NAS easily tackles heavy multitasking workloads—including virtualization, massive file backups, collaborative editing, and real-time video conversion.
Next-Generation Networking & SSD Acceleration
Equipped with dual 2.5GbE (2.5G/1G/100M) RJ45 network ports, the TS-264 allows users to multiply transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps using Port Trunking. Furthermore, two onboard M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 3 slots let you configure NVMe SSD caching or Qtier auto-tiering storage, drastically reducing latency and accelerating IOPS-demanding applications without sacrificing your standard 3.5-inch drive bays.
Future-Ready Expandability & 4K Multimedia
Scale your infrastructure as your data grows. With a built-in PCIe Gen 3 x2 slot, you can easily install a dual-port 10GbE network card, an additional QM2 SSD card, or wireless adapters. The integrated HDMI 2.1 port delivers pristine 4K @ 60Hz video playback coupled with real-time hardware transcoding, making the TS-264 the ultimate centralized hub for digital media and private cloud virtualization.
