QTS is the operating system for entry- and mid-level QNAP NAS. WIth Linux and ext4, QTS enables reliable storage for everyone with versatile value-added features and apps, such as snapshots, Plex media servers, and easy access of your personal cloud. System
Access-Anywhere with myQNAPcloud – Safe and secure remote access over the internet to your storage systems, apps or just file storage In our 4k Average Latency tests, the TS-464 NAS showed 105.02ms read and 378.85ms write in SMB, and iSCSI reported 102.72ms read and 357.55ms write. Comparatively, the TS-453D had 874.06ms read and 382.29ms write for SMB, and 100.26ms read and 575.87ms write for iSCSI. In our last 4K test (standard deviation), we saw the QNAP TS-464 NAS with 76.69ms read and 562.122ms write for SMB, and 84.44ms read and 905.26ms write for iSCSI performance. The TS-453D NAS scored 734.97ms read and 458.11ms write for SMB, and scored 115.60ms read and 1148.64ms write for iSCSI.As it stands, these are the few bits of information that have landed, that point at these units. Though there is still information that we can largely be sure of AND a lot we can surmise from these images and the product families. Let’s discuss. What Should We Expect From the QNAP HS-264 and TS-464 NAS? Finally, the TS-X64 range also features better USB support, arriving with USB 3.2 Gen 2 at 1,000MB/s performance potential, whereas the TS-X53D systems only have USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gb/s or 500MB/s approx) Multimedia Console – one portal access point to manage media access, searching, indexing and transcoding on your NAS device. Now that we know how easy the QNAP TS-464 is to setup, how does it actually perform? I'm happy to say that the device works extremely well!
HDMI 2.0 supports 4K output, providing great benefits for applications like video editing or industrial design that demands high resolution as well as intensive media storage, transfer, and display. With our two test configurations, the TS-464 meets or beats the older model TS-453D, which shouldn’t be too surprising. While in some cases these performance differences may not seem too great, considering the additional capabilities of the TS-464, much greater performance can be achieved. Unfortunately, most home and even prosumer network gear does not support 2.5GbE. You can get them from QNAP, but if you want something from a company like Ubiquiti, you have to move up to their Enterprise line, which isn't very practical in a SOHO environment. Applications Container Station – much like the VM app, Container station lets you mount and access smaller virtual tools and GUIs, then access them over the network or internet. This is an area where you really see how both brands focus their priorities on the solutions they offer, as well as how the components common to NAS have evolved in the 2 years between their respective releases. The Synology DS423+ arrives with a familiar architecture to it’s predecessor (the DS420+) and is a fairly tried and tested formula by the brand. Synology was the first company to introduce NVMe SSD storage bays into desktop NAS systems around 5 years ago (something that QNAP has only really been catching up on in the last 2 YEARS). Likewise, Synology has made a few very brand-specific decisions in their system architecture that this rather more proprietary brand is often keen to implement. For example, the default DDR4 memory inside (2666Mhz SODIMM) is actually soldered to the main internal board (4x 256MB Modules), with an additional empty memory slot to allow an additional 4GB Synology-branded memory module. As the DS423+ has a CPU that has a maximum 8GB of memory, this is an oddly artificial limitation that results in the DS420+ only allowing 6GB of max memory, an odd move that is perhaps done out of system PCI/Bandwidth, rather than any kind of manufacturer restriction. The QNAP features a newer gen CPU (as you would expect after the later release) and this CPU allows up to 16GB of memory (4GB in the default model) across two upgradable slots. Likewise, returning to those M.2 NVMe slots, both system feature 2 bays that can be used for SSD storage upgrades, although both the DS423+ and TS-464 support SSD caching (when a pool of SSDs is used to speed up data write/read in conjunction with the larger HDD RAID array), Synology ONLY RECENTLY allowed NVMe Storage Pools on their platform, whereas QNAP has allowed NVMes as standalone storage pools, for app booting, running the OS from and even their own special internal tiering system known as QTier. This is the first of several key differences between the QNAP TS-464 and Synology DS423+ NAS that show the divide in hardware between these units.
