2.5GbE TVS-675 NAS from QNAP is powered by a Zhaoxin 8-Core processor

aWith an 8-core 2.5 GHz Zhaoxin KaiXian KX-U6580 processor, QNAP has announced the 6-bay TVS-675 NAS. The TVS-675 offers dual 2.5 GbE ports, dual M.2 SSD slots for cache acceleration, PCIe extension, multi-cloud backup, 4K HDMI 2.0 output, extendable storage capacity, and install-on-demand software.

The TVS-675 has 8 GB DDR4 memory (expandable up to 64 GB - 2x 32 GB) and supports AES-NI encryption acceleration. The built-in dual 2.5 GbE RJ45 ports can deliver up to 5 Gbps potential under Port Trunking, satisfying bandwidth-hungry applications such as large file transfers, fast backup/restoration, and multimedia transfer & editing. To attain optimal I/O and reduced latency, users can configure SSD caching by using the two built-in M.2 2280 SSDs slots (supports PCIe NVMe Gen 3 SSDs or SATA 6 Gb/s SSDs, sold separately) without occupying disk drive bays. By utilizing QNAP's Qtier technology the TVS-675 NAS can benefit from auto-optimized tiered storage to achieve optimal performance while also balancing storage utilization.

The TVS-675 provides two PCIe Gen 3 x4 slots allows for installing expansion cards to enhance NAS functionality (such as a 2.5 GbE/5 GbE/10 GbE network card, or a QM2 network/storage card). The HDMI 2.0 output allows for directly displaying NAS multimedia and virtual machines on a monitor or TV. The TVS-675 meets business storage demands for security, file sharing, central management, local/remote/cloud backup, and snapshot protection to facilitate daily tasks with greater productivity. The built-in App Center increases NAS application potential, such as hosting multiple virtual machines and containers, deploying a cloud storage gateway, building a professional video surveillance system, backing up S3 object cold data, and more.

TVS-675 NAS users can switch the operating system from QTS to QuTS hero - QNAP's ZFS-based NAS operating system that provides end-to-end data integrity, data reduction (inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction), and more features for users that need to prioritize data reliability over performance.
