QNAP Enterprise - All-Flash NAS

The QNAP TS-h2490FU is the latest addition to the company’s QuTS hero line. Sporting a 2U form factor, QNAP states that it is designed more for performance, as it is highlighted by its AMD EPYC 7302P (16-core) processor and all NVMe-flash storage.

The QNAP TS-h1290FX stands out as a high-capacity, high-speed NAS tailored for demanding tasks like intensive video editing and large-scale file sharing. Powered by advanced AMD EPYC processors and supporting up to 1TB of memory, the H1290FX offers robust performance and expansion options. Its design prioritizes quiet operation and diverse connectivity, including multiple 25GbE ports onboard, making it an adaptable and discreet addition to any professional environment.

Late last year, we showed how we were Building New STH Studio Storage NAS around the QNAP TS-h1290FX. The reason we picked this platform versus building our own was simple: it is a 12-bay U.2 NAS based on AMD EPYC with built-in 25GbE and multiple PCIe Gen4 slots. With a relatively expandable system that is very quiet, there is a lot to like in this NAS. Make no mistake, however: it is a high-end NAS in the truest sense of the word, and as a result, it is not a NAS for everyone.
