The QNAP TS-832PX-4G-US is a high-performance NAS solution ideal for home users and small businesses seeking efficient networking and storage capabilities. Featuring an 8-bay design, this versatile device supports various RAID configurations, ensuring data redundancy and protection for your critical files. With 4GB of RAM and a powerful processor, the TS-832PX delivers fast and reliable performance for file sharing, backup, and multimedia streaming. Its user-friendly interface makes it easy to manage data, while advanced features like cloud integration and remote access enhance productivity and collaboration. Whether you need a centralized storage solution or a reliable backup system, the QNAP TS-832PX-4G-US provides the flexibility and security to meet your needs.

The quad-core 1.7GHz TS-832PX features eight 3.5-inch SATA 6GB/s drive bays, providing huge storage potential for a wide range of applications and everyday usage. With two 10GbE SFP+ and two 2.5GbE LAN ports, the TS-832PX supports next-generation networks for empowering bandwidth-demanding applications and providing smoother file access and sharing. Various PCIe cards are also supported, including QM2 cards that provide M.2 SATA/NVMe SSD caching and Qtier auto-tiering storage to boost NAS performance.

Supports AES-128-GMAC for SMB signing acceleration

SMB signing (also known as security signatures) is a security mechanism in the SMB protocol. For business applications that demand high-level security, SMB signing helps enhance file sharing security by protecting against interception attacks. However, SMB signing can also negatively impact data transmission performance. QTS 5.1.0 supports AES-128-GMAC signing acceleration (only in Windows Server 2022 and Windows 11 clients) that not only greatly increases data signing efficiency over SMB 3.1.1 but also enhances the CPU utilization of the NAS system - providing the best balance of security and performance.

Extend NAS Functionality with a PCIe Card

With a PCIe Gen 2.0 slot, the TS-832PX provides flexibility in extending NAS functionality and potential applications. To optimize system performance, install a QNAP QM2 card for M.2 SATA/NVMe SSD caching/10GbE connectivity and use with Qtier for optimal system performance. You can also use a QNAP Wi-Fi 6 (802.11AX) network card to create a wireless environment. Additional options include QXG 5GbE/2.5GbE network adapter cards and USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) cards. All these options ensure that the TS-832PX can be upgraded to fit future requirements.

Protect Important Data with Snapshots

Snapshots fully record the NAS system state and metadata and can be used to quickly restore files to previously-recorded states if they are accidentally deleted/modified or if the system is compromised by ransomware. QNAP snapshots are block-based and only record modified data. Not only does this save storage space, but also reduces the time required to back up and restore data. The TS-832PX supports up to 256 snapshots per NAS and up to 64 snapshots per volume or LUN.

Multi-Point File Backup, Access, and Sync

The TS-832PX supports common file sharing protocols (including SMB/CIFS, AFP and NFS) for Windows, Mac, and Linux/UNIX devices. Coupled with Qsync (a utility that transforms a QNAP NAS into a secure, high-capacity data center for file synchronization) any file uploaded to the TS-832PX becomes available for all linked devices (such as computers, laptops, and mobile devices). Hybrid Backup Sync helps you easily backup or synchronize data on the TS-832PX to another QNAP NAS, remote server, or cloud storage (including Microsoft One Drive, Google Drive, and Dropbox) for disaster recovery.
