The QNAP TS-264 2-Bay NAS Enclosure, powered by an Intel Celeron N5095, quad-core processor (burst up to 2.9GHz), features two (2) 2.5GbE RJ45 ports and Port Trunking for up to 5Gbps combined bandwidth. With M.2 PCIe Gen3 and PCIe Gen 3 slots, the TS-264 provides flexibility in extending NAS functionality, allowing you to install a QM2 card for M.2 SSD caching, or Edge TPU for AI image recognition and various 10GbE/5GbE network cards (SSDs and PCIe cards sold separately). The TS-264 comes with 8 GB RAM for running light VMs and Containers, and supports multi-cloud backup, cloud storage gateways, 4K HDMI output and real-time transcoding, alongside expandable storage capacity and feature-rich apps to perform as a cost-efficient, reliable 2.5GbE NAS.
The TS-264 is powered by an Intel Celeron N5095 quad-core processor, features two (2) 2.5GbE ports and supports SATA 6 Gb/s drives and up to 8 GB DDR4 memory. The integrated Intel AES-NI encryption engine also helps protect confidential data without impacting system performance.
The TS-264 has two (2) M.2 PCIe Gen3 slots, enabling SSD caching or SSD storage pools for improved performance, or Edge TPU for AI image recognition.
The TS-264 supports SSD caching and features two (2) M.2 slots that support M.2 PCIe NVMe SSDs with 2280 form factors (sold separately) for boosting overall NAS performance. Qtier technology can also be used to empower the TS-264 with auto tiering that helps continuously optimise storage efficiency across all installed storage devices.
By leveraging a Google Edge TPU to QNAP AI Core (the AI-powered engine for image recognition), the TS-264 can perform high-speed face and object recognition. Google Edge TPU enables QuMagie to quickly process thousands of photos with high-speed AI Image recognition and classification, and QVR Face to analyse real-time video for instant facial recognition.
While SSD prices continue to fall, and SSD capacity and performance continue to increase, organisations can easily take advantage of SSD strengths. The TS-264 supports numerous SSD-aware features that significantly maximise NAS performance with high cost-effectiveness.
The TS-264 comes with two (2) 2.5GbE RJ45 (2.5G/1G/100M) LAN ports that allow you to use existing CAT5e cables to upgrade network speeds from 1-Gigabit to 2.5-Gigabit. The dual 2.5GbE ports also support Port Trunking for up to 5 Gbps transmission speeds, improving the efficiency of bandwidth-hungry business applications such as large file transfers, fast backup/restore, and multimedia transfer & editing.
The TS-264 is ideally matched with QNAP’s managed and unmanaged 2.5GbE/10GbE switches (sold separately) to form high-speed, secure, and scalable network environments without going over budget. QNAP also provide 2.5GbE/5GbE/10GbE PCIe cards and USB 5GbE adapters (sold separately) for Windows/Linux workstations, allowing you to easily build a high-speed network environment for productive team collaboration.
With two (2) USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) ports and two (2) USB 2.0 (480Mbps) ports, you can quickly backup and transfer large files to/from the TS-264. UPS and other compatible USB devices can also be connected for greater functionality and application potential.
The TS-264 has one (1) PCIe Gen 3 x2 slot that allow for installing various expansion cards (sold separately) for expanding application potential.
The TS-264 features Intel UHD Graphics that supports dual-channel hardware decoding and real-time transcoding. The HDMI 2.0 output supports up to 4K, providing great benefits for applications like video production/editing or industrial design that demands high resolution and colour realism as well as intensive media storage, transfer, and display. By connecting the TS-264 to an HDMI display, you can directly watch multimedia content saved on the NAS, or use the TS-264 as a versatile workstation by directly outputting virtual machines from Virtualisation Station or Ubuntu Linux Station.
With integrated Intel OpenVINO AI computing resources, the TS-264 accelerates AI image recognition performance without impacting other applications or services. QNAP AI Core primarily works with the QuMagie application.
The TS-264 comes with the QTS 5 operating system as standard, providing a next-generation usage experience with an updated system kernel, optimised user interface, and advanced security features.
The TS-264 supports various apps that cover all your backup needs. Practice safe IT habits by regularly backing up files and device content, allowing them to be easily restored when needed.
The TS-264 supports block-based snapshots that record the state of the system at any time. It helps protect data, which can be restored back to a specific point of time, greatly helping in mitigating the threat of ransomware.
By running multiple virtual machines and containers on the TS-264, you can deploy multi-tenant environments and applications to increase management efficiency and save hardware costs. Coupled with the Network & Virtual Switch app that boosts interoperability between virtual machines, containers, QNAP NAS, and other physical devices on the network, you can flexibly allocate physical and virtual network resources to simplify network deployment.
The TS-264 is loaded with flexible privilege settings and security measures. Besides IP blocking, 2-step verification, HTTPS connection, there are more apps that help ensure optimal NAS protection against threats like malware and hackers.
The TS-264 integrates rich apps for storing, managing, synchronising, searching, and archiving files. It supports SMB/CIFS, AFP, and NFS protocols for streamlined file sharing across Windows, Mac, and Linux/UNIX, and provides the smartest NAS solution for professionally managing your files.
QVR Elite (licence sold separately) is QNAP’s subscription-based smart surveillance solution, allowing you to easily build a surveillance system with lower TCO and higher scalability. Recordings are saved as MP4 files, allowing playback on nearly every device. QVR Elite also integrates QNAP AI-based solutions to build smart facial recognition for retail and door access systems with QNAP NAS. You can arrange a dedicated, independent storage space for surveillance data on the TS-264 and enjoy simplified camera management, storage space allocation, camera live viewing and playback.
QNAP provides easy ways to expand your storage capacity. Here are several ways to expand your TS-264 storage as needed to accommodate data and business growth.
The TS-264 provides an App Centre that includes feature-rich apps to expand your NAS potential.
Hard drives are at the heart of your NAS, and ensuring their long-term health and reliability is absolutely crucial. QNAP provides various methods and tools to help you monitor hard drive health, ensuring that you can take proactive decisions to safeguard your data and files.
