Four Gigabit network ports plus optional 10GbE upgrade, Easy to manage graphical OS, SSD caching option

Qualité exemplaire de fabrication, Performances, Richesse des applications et SSD caching
Pas de système de Snapshot des fichiers, Tarif élevé
Avec le TS-470, Qnap arrive à prendre la tête sur le plan des performances dans la catégorie des NAS quatre baies haut de gamme. De plus la qualité exemplaire de son châssis conforte son avantage par rapport à la concurrence. Nous avons pu découvrir au s...
E' certamente un ottimo prodotto indicato anche per un'utenza non esperta. Indicato soprattutto per l'utilizzo in un piccolo/medio ufficio ma anche per l'utente casalingo che vuole avere il proprio storage per gestire foto, filmati e home theatre. Qualche...
L'habitat naturale del QNAP TS-470 è sicuramente quello delle piccole e medie imprese con un numero massimo di 25 postazioni, non mancano però features che faranno sicuramente gola anche agli utenti domestici quali ad esempio uscita HDMI e porta audio i...
