QNAP TS-x53D Series
Ideal for SOHO users and enthusiasts, this NAS offers a powerful yet easy-to-use solution for backing up, syncing and sharing files, streaming videos, and more. It's powered by an Intel quad-core processor, features dual 2.5GbE connectivity that has much higher throughput than 1GbE, and supports PCIe expansion for add-on cards (sold separately) of 10GbE, M.2 SSD for cache acceleration, or Wi-Fi 6. A built-in HDMI 2.0 connects to your 4K TV and directly plays media files stored on the NAS. Scalable storage lets you start small, and expand storage capacity with RAID or expansion enclosures (sold separately) as your data grows.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I also added the QNAP pci-e wireless card to the NAS. It's very nice to be able to place the NAS anywhere in the home. I don't have an AX router but do have an AC one that reports a rock steady 866 Mbps. Quite adequate for my needs.
I don't use the HDMI port but may some day. I use the NAS mainly as a file server and music host for my ripped audio collection.
I run Logitech Media Server software on it to serve a few Squeezeboxes around my home. The performance is quick and stable. Running the new QTS 5.0.0 software.
I've been through a handful of QNAP NAS devices over the years. They have come a long way, the software packages keep getting better. No complaints at all.
For my small business customers, I use these as centralized file servers for small offices. However you use it, I have to point out something that another 1 star reviewer complained about. They had lost everything due to a hack. First, do NOT expose this product to the internet. Any device exposed to the internet is at risk. Second, you must have backup if you store your data on these devices. It should be something off site - cloud backup. Even if you use RAID (redundant) disk drives, it is NOT a substitute for having a backup of your data somewhere that is NOT on this device. I would say the same thing if you store your data on your PC.
Finally, I would caution people that these devices are much more complicated than setting up your average router. The user interface is very easy, but there are lots of things to configure - network config/users/passwords/shared folders/anti-virus/backup, etc. You can even run a virtual PC inside this device - Windows or Linux.
Update: After 2 months, I found one problem that I do not like. With the cheap PCIe card for NVMe m.2 memory, I can only use the SSD as cache memory. I can not do Qtier. It is also not good as cache memory for write cache as it could fail before writing it to my HDD. This makes me believe now Synology might be a better option if you really want to have m.2 SSD because it is built-in for Synology NAS. Qnap is not cheaper if I need to buy the RAID PCIe card. Well, I guess I am still getting cheap security camera licenses. For this reason, I took out one star.

Es hat alles problemlos funktioniert. Meine alten Platten wurden sofort erkannt - es muss nur die Reihenfolge der Platten beachtet werden - und das System hat alles einwandfrei migriert.
Anschließend noch einige Anpassungen und die neue Firmware installiert.
Das System läuft rund und sorglos.
Einziger Kritikpunkt ... es gibt beim TS-453D keinen Ruhemodus, d.h. es muss immer heruntergefahren werden, wenn man das wünscht.
Ich kann die NAS von QNAP nur weiter empfehlen
Plenty of hardware (added another 8 GB of RAM) solid and stable software. Plus lots of features. Match better than my old Asustor.
Only downsize - it's plastic. But I did not expect anything better at this price range
très performant et facile à utiliser
