An easy-to-use, all-in-one backup solution

The TS-433 can do many things, but at its heart is a complete backup solution to protect your files and data. By regularly backing up your files and device content, you can make data loss a thing of the past.

  • Back up Windows/Mac files
    For Windows, install NetBak Replicator to back up your PC to the TS-433. In macOS, simply set up the built-in Time Machine to back up files to NAS.
  • Back up photos on mobile devices

  • Back up WordPress sites
    Enjoy efficient WordPress backup/restore and site migration by leveraging the user-friendly Multi-Application Recovery Service (MARS), and easily batch backup WordPress files and database to the TS-433 with backup scheduling.

Protect your data from ransomware threats with Snapshots

Snapshots are an advanced backup method and are normally reserved for high-end business NAS. QNAP provides snapshots as standard for all NAS, including the TS-433. Snapshots work by recording the current state of the system, allowing it to be restored back to this state at any time - greatly helping in mitigating the threat of ransomware.

  • Back up PCs to your NAS
    Always remember to back up! You should routinely (or automatically) back up files and data from your computer to your TS-433.
  • Take snapshots within seconds
    Instantly take snapshots to record the current state of your system and data. You can quickly restore files and data to a previously recorded state by selecting a snapshot version from a specific time point.
  • Back up snapshots
    Multiply data protection by backing up snapshot files! Replicate snapshots in the TS-433 to a remote NAS (Snapshot Replica) and only copy the changes made. This helps save time & bandwidth, and can be run manually or on a scheduled basis.
  • Restore data using snapshots
    Snapshot content can be quickly restored to a local NAS, or restored on a folder/file basis to a local/remote NAS or cloud storage. You can also conveniently view and restore snapshots from the client side.

Centrally store and protect your huge multimedia collection

The TS-433 is your private personal cloud for your movies, videos, photos, and files that are securely at your fingertips anywhere and anytime.

  • Storage for music collections
    Use Music Station to collect and play lossless music, sing along with lyrics, and share albums, playlists or folders with friends and family. You can also put tons of music right in your pocket using the Qmusic mobile app.
  • Store high-resolution videos
    Centrally collect GoPro diaries, videos of your family, friends, and pets in Video Station, and easily share your favourites. Take all your videos with you on your mobile devices using the Qvideo mobile app.

Enhanced multimedia experience

The TS-433 supports ARM NEON technology to accelerate video processing for a greater entertainment experience. Stream media files from the TS-433 to DLNA devices and TVs using common media streaming devices including Roku, Apple TV (via Qmedia), Google Chromecast, and Amazon Fire TV.

Tips for a more productive workday

With a wide range of apps, you can easily access files from various devices, instantly synchronise files with friends’ or colleague’s devices, quickly find specific files, and automatically organise your documents and media files. You can also map the TS-433’s shared folders as network drives on your computers, making accessing NAS files easy and intuitive. The TS-433 helps you save time while being more efficient and productive.

  • File Station
    Easily manage files stored in your TS-433 using the web-based File Station. The Qfile companion mobile app also puts all your files at your fingertips, providing a complete personal cloud service that is accessible from anywhere!
  • Qsync
    Qsync is a perfect replacement of Dropbox, allowing you to synchronise files with computers and mobile devices belonging to your family, friends, colleagues, and clients.
  • Qfiling
    Save time organising and archiving your files with Qfiling. Simply categorise your files, set a schedule, and Qfiling will automatically organise and archive them.

Access your NAS from anywhere

The myQNAPcloud service enables quick and easy remote access to your TS-433, allowing you to be always connected without needing to configure complex network settings. With myQNAPcloud Link you are provided with a unique domain name for your TS-433, and will automatically connect using the best method based on your network environment.

Protect your data with higher security

The TS-433 provides advanced privacy and security settings but is easy to set up and use. Besides IP blocking and HTTPS connectivity, there are more apps that help ensure an optimal level of NAS protection against threats like malware and hackers.

  • 2-step verification
    When activated, anyone who logs in to the TS-433 must enter a one-time verification code after their username and password.
  • Advanced folder permissions
    Easily manage folder permissions, specifying read, read/write, and deny access of individual users to each folder and subfolder.
  • QuFirewall protection
    Supports IPv6, firewall access lists, and GeoIP filtering to restrict access based on geographical locations for higher NAS network security.
  • Superior security with QVPN
    A virtual private network (VPN) allows secure access to network resources and services across public networks. QVPN supports creating a VPN client, using the TS-433 as a VPN server, and WireGuard VPN service with an easy-to-use interface for setting up a secure connection.
  • Security Counsellor
    A security portal for the TS-433 to check for weaknesses and offer recommendations for enhancing NAS security. It also integrates anti-virus and anti-malware scanning software.

Host container applications

If you are curious about Docker or are a hobbyist developer, Container Station on the TS-433 integrates Docker lightweight virtualisation technology, allowing you to run all kinds of self-contained applications. You can download apps from the built-in Docker Hub, including popular and fully-configured applications, and deploy them with just one click. From smart homes to multimedia applications, you can explore your creativity and bring containerised applications to life.

Besides Container Station, more apps (including tools for backup/sync, content management, communications, download, and entertainment) are available from the App Centre. Simply click and install on-demand to further extend the functionality of your TS-433.

Flexible and economical storage expansion

QNAP provides easy and affordable solutions to expand your NAS storage capacity.

    Connect expansion enclosures (sold separately) to the TS-433, and manage NAS storage expansion with the user-friendly Storage & Snapshots Manager app.
  • Mount cloud storage or remote file servers
    Mount cloud storage or remote file servers to expand the capacity of the TS-433 while also centrally managing files on the NAS, cloud storage, and remote devices.
  • Migrate to a new NAS
    Install your NAS hard drives into a larger QNAP NAS and retain all your existing data and configurations.
  • Upgrade RAID capacity
    Hot-swap lower-capacity drives with larger-capacity drives to expand your NAS capacity so it can grow with your files and multimedia collections.
