Overview

QNAP TS-873AU: 8-bay NAS and 2.5 GbE LAN

The QNAP TS-873AU-4G 2U rackmount NAS offers 8 2.5"/3.5" bays and a 2.5 GbE LAN controller. It features an AMD Ryzen V1500B processor (4 cores/8 threads) which is able to boost the performance of virtual machines. It is also scalable with up to 32GB of DDR4 memory and offers a PCIe 3.0 8x slot for adding functionality via an expansion card.

The advanced hardware integrated with comprehensive software solutions makes the TS-873AU the preferred choice for resource-intensive applications and tasks.

High performance hardware

Powered by a quad-core AMD Ryzen 4-core/8-thread V1500B 2.2GHz processor with AES-NI encryption acceleration and up to 32GB of DDR4 RAM, the rack-mounted TS-873AU delivers smart yet aggressive performance to run resource-intensive business applications such as VDI, R&D, private cloud, and server virtualization.

Move to 2.5GbE networking

The TS-873AU comes with two 2.5GbE RJ45 network ports that allow you to use existing CAT5e cables to upgrade network speeds from 1 to 2.5 Gigabit. You can also achieve 5GbE speeds using Port Aggregation. To upgrade your laptops and desktops to take advantage of high-speed networks, QNAP offers various adapters and peripherals, including a USB 3.2 Gen 1 to 5GbE adapter (model name QNA-UC5G1T) and a PCIe 5GbE expansion card (model name QXG-5G1T-111C).

PCI-Express expansion card slot

The TS-873AU features a PCIe Gen3 x8 slot that allows for the installation of various expansion cards to tailor the use of the NAS according to the business needs. Whether it's adding expansion units with a SAS card, increasing bandwidth with a 40GbE card, or adding SSDs for increased cache and performance.

optimised for VMware virtualisation with iSER

The iSER (iSCSI Extensions for RDMA) protocol boosts VMware ESXi storage data transfer performance and reduces ESXi server CPU load. Support for iSER can be added to the TS-873AU by installing a QNAP PCIe 10GbE QXG-10G2SF-CX4 card that uses the Mellanox ConnectX-4 controller. iSER can provide a significant increase in performance, offering an essential tool for optimizing demanding virtualization applications.
