Product Features
Technical Overview
At the core of the TS-673A-8G-US is the AMD Ryzen V1500B, a quad-core processor running at 2.20 GHz, paired with 8GB of DDR4 SDRAM. This combination provides ample compute power for running QNAP's QTS or QuTS hero operating systems, supporting applications like containerized services, virtual machines, and real-time data deduplication.
Storage connectivity is handled by a Serial ATA/600 controller across six hot-swappable bays. The system includes 5GB of flash memory for the OS and caching. Network performance is driven by two 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports, enabling aggregated links for up to 5 Gbps throughput. Expansion is facilitated through two PCIe 3.0 x4 slots, allowing for add-ons like 10GbE cards, NVMe caching, or wireless adapters.
