QNAP TS-231P3 NAS Tower Annapurna Labs Alpine AL-214 4 GB DDR3 0 TB QNAP QTS Turquoise, White

Equipped with an Annapurna Labs Alpine AL-314, 1.7 GHz quad-core processor, 2 GB DDR3L RAM, one 1GbE LAN port, and one 2.5GbE LAN port, the TS-231P3 features a 2.5GbE RJ45 port, providing up to 2.5 times the speed of regular Gigabit Ethernet and enabling smoother multimedia playback and everyday use. The TS-231P3 ensures data security by supporting AES 256-bit encryption and various local, remote, and cloud backup options—including snapshot protection that allows files and data to be reverted to previously recorded states if they are accidentally deleted, modified, or affected by malware.

Building a Faster Home Network with QNAP
The TS-231P3 includes one 1GbE port and one 2.5GbE port, to provide a smoother NAS experience and multimedia playback. Additional network connectivity options from QNAP include USB 3.2 Gen 1 to 5GbE adapters (supports N-BASET/Multi-Gig), QXG 5GbE PCIe cards, and QNAP QSW 10GbE switches. With all these options, users can revolutionize their home network at a cost-effective price. The TS-231P3 features three USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, providing superb multitasking performance.

Easy and Secure File Management
File Station enables direct management of files stored on the TS-231P3 and in the cloud. Users can easily upload files from their PC, drag and drop files between folders, rename/delete files, and configure file and folder permissions to prevent unauthorized access. Users can also use Microsoft Office Online to directly view/edit Microsoft Office documents stored on the TS-231P3. Confidential/sensitive data can also be encrypted to ensure extra security.

Multipoint File Backup, Access, and Synchronization
The TS-231P3 supports 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-231P3 will be made available for all connected devices (such as computers, laptops, and mobile devices). Hybrid Backup Sync helps back up/synchronize data on the TS-231P3 to another QNAP NAS, remote server, or cloud storage for disaster recovery. In addition, QuDedup technology significantly improves the efficiency of multi-version backups to the destination storage while also optimizing storage utilization. You can install the QuDedup Extract Tool on your computer and restore deduplicated files to their normal status.

Protect Important Data with Snapshots
Snapshots protect data by fully recording the NAS system status and metadata. With snapshots, users can quickly restore files to previously recorded states if files are accidentally deleted, modified, or if the system is compromised by malware. QNAP snapshots are block-based and only record modified data. This not only saves storage space but also reduces the time required to back up and restore data.

Take Full Control of the NAS System Status and Data Security
Notification Center consolidates all QTS system events and alerts, providing you with a comprehensive app solution for notifications. Security Counselor recommends actions and settings to improve the security of the TS-231P3.

Always Stay Informed
Notification Center provides a unified app solution for QTS system events and alert notifications. This eliminates the need to configure various app settings, helping users streamline management processes and save time.

Comprehensive Surveillance Solution for 24/7 Security
Surveillance Station features a user-friendly interface and supports over 3,000 IP cameras. With an expandable IP camera channel licensing system, users can build a comprehensive surveillance system for real-time monitoring, video and audio recording, and playback. Budget-conscious users can also save money on cameras by using USB webcams to record footage. Surveillance broadcasts can be viewed at any time using the Vmobile app on mobile devices.

Expand NAS Functionality with Containers and Applications
Container Station integrates lightweight LXC and Docker® virtualization technologies, allowing users to host and operate containerized applications directly on the TS-231P3. With many popular and fully configured applications available from the built-in Docker Hub® (e.g., for automation and multimedia), the TS-231P3 offers users a wealth of potential functions and application possibilities.

The TS-231P3 also offers applications for backup/synchronization, content management, communication, downloading, and entertainment. Each app can be installed from the QTS App Center with a single click.
