Modern businesses face the challenges of dramatic growth of digital data as well 
as raising productivity and efficiency. To well deploy the business IT environment 
with a reliable, affordable, scalable, and easy-to-maintain storage center to 
securely store, share and back up the digital assets has become the top task for 
the server managers nowadays in small and mid-sized companies. The Turbo NAS 
is the brand-new rackmount chassis network attached storage (NAS) server to 
satisfy these requirements. 

The Turbo NAS is equipped with the next-generation Intel® Atom D510 1.66GHz 
Dual-Core processor delivering exceptionally high performance, yet with low 
power consumption for energy-saving commitment. The Turbo NAS provides 
versatile business applications to maximize server consolidation in the business 
environment. The Turbo NAS is integrated as a powerful all-in-one application 
server, which requires no extra time and efforts for software installation. The 
server managers can adopt the NAS in many of the system integration projects or 
office applications quickly. The Turbo NAS is also an affordable solution capable of 
business-class server applications, secure data backup and sharing, and iSCSI 
service for virtualized and clustered environment.

The Most Affordable and Flexible Virtualization Solution
The Turbo NAS is certified as compatible with VMware® vSphere4 (ESX 4.0 and 
above) virtualization platform. The NAS can be utilized as the networked 
shared storage of VMware virtualization environments and Windows cluster 
servers. Comparing with traditional SAN (Storage Area Network), the Turbo 
NAS is a competitive alternative with much lower setup and maintenance 
costs in an IP SAN.

The Feature-rich and Integrated Applications for Business 
The NAS supports file sharing across Windows, Mac, Linux, and UNIX 
platforms. Versatile business applications such as file server, FTP server, 
printer server, web server, and Windows AD support are provided. The 
dominant features, such as WebDAV, Share Folder Aggregation (also known as 
DFS), IPv6 and IPv4 dual-stack, Wake on LAN, scheduled power on/ off, HDD 
S.M.A.R.T, comprehensive log systems, and policy-based unauthorized IP 
blocking are also available.

NAS + iSCSI storage solution:
The Turbo NAS can serve as a NAS for file sharing and 
iSCSI storage concurrently.

Flexible multiple LUNs management:
The NAS supports multiple LUNs (Logical Unit Numbers) and 
iSCSI targets. The LUNs can be flexibly mapped to, 
unmapped from, and switched among different iSCSI targets.

Secure IP SAN environment deployment:
Designed with CHAP authentication and LUN masking, the 
advanced ACL (Access Control List) offers you the 
capability to block the access from unauthorized initiators.

Designed for virtualized and clustered environments:
Comparing with the high cost Fibre Channel SAN, the 
Turbo NAS is an affordable system that can be deployed as 
a storage center for virtualized and clustered server 
environments, such as VMware and Microsoft Windows 
Failover Cluster.

The unique "Virtual Disk Drive" adds flexibility to expand the capacity of 
NAS. By using the built-in iSCSI initiator, the NAS can connect to other 
iSCSI targets on the network and turn them into virtual disks, which 
become multiple single volumes on the NAS. Up to 8 virtual disks can be 
stacked. The NAS serves as the storage stack chaining master. The user 
only needs to connect to this single entry (QNAP NAS) and is able to reach 
and use all the iSCSI LUN on the network.

Online RAID Capacity Expansion:
The storage capacity of a RAID configuration can be expanded by replacing the 
larger hard drives. All the data will be kept and seamlessly moved to the newly 
installed hard drives without turning off the server.

Online RAID Level Migration:
You can upgrade the disk configuration to higher RAID level with the data 
retained without turning off the server.

* 

The RAID configurations available vary according to the product models and

   the number of hard disk drives installed.

The Turbo NAS offers RAID 0, 1, 5, 5+hot spare, 6, 6+hot spare

*

, single disk, and JBOD disk configurations. It also supports hot-swap design that a failed member 

drive of a RAID configuration (RAID 1 or above only) can be replaced by hot swapping without turning off the server. 

The Turbo NAS supports multiple bonding modes: Balance-rr (Round-
Robin), Active Backup, Balance XOR, Broadcast, IEEE 802.3ad, Balance-
tlb (Adaptive Transmit Load Balancing) and Balance-alb (Adaptive Load 
Balancing).

The Turbo NAS provides a number of powerful features for you to 
manage the server more efficiently at lower cost.

The NAS offers complete backup 
solution for data protection, including 
cloud-based storage backup (Amazon 
S3), Apple Time Machine support, 
encrypted remote replication, third 
party software backup, one-touch-
copy backup and QNAP exclusive 
Windows-based utility NetBak 
Replicator. The users can choose 
different backup modes for redundant 
data backup.
