The integrated Intel® AES-NI encryption engine also helps protect confidential data without impacting system performance.Accelerate AI–powered image recognition and caching with TPU and PCIe expansionThe TS-264 has two M.2 PCIe Gen3 slots. enabling SSD caching or SSD storage pools for improved performance. or Edge TPU for AI image recognition.Install M.2 NVMe SSDs for cache acceleration or efficient tiered storageThe TS-264 supports SSD caching and features two M.2 slots that support M.2 PCIe NVMe SSDswith 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 optimize storage efficiency across all installed storage devices.Accelerate AI–powered image recognition with TPUBy 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 analyze real-time video for instant facial recognition.SSD caching and auto-tiering enable 24/7 optimized storage efficiencyWhile SSD prices continue to fall. and SSD capacity and performance continue to increase. organizations can easily take advantage of SSD strengths. The TS-264 supports numerous SSD-aware features that significantly maximize NAS performance with high cost-effectiveness.SSD over-provisioning(Over-provisioning)You can add additional SSD over-provisioning (1% ~60%) to avoid write amplification and improve SSD random write speeds and endurance. You can potentially attain enterprise-grade SSD performance levels from affordable consumer SSDs!SSD cache accelerationEnables SSD caching for increasing IOPS performance and reducing latency for storage volume. This feature is perfect for IOPS-demanding applications including databases and virtualization. The TS-264 also supports write-only cache to boost write-intensive applications.Qtier for auto-tieringQtier technology drives auto-tiered storage with continuous data optimization across high-performance SSDs and high-capacity HDDs based on access frequency. I/O-Aware Qtier can reserve a cache-like space in the SSD tiered to handle burst I/O in real time.Streamline large file transfers and video editing with 2.5GbEThe TS-264 comes with two 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.Future-proof your IT infrastructure for high-speed networksThe TS-264 is ideally matched with QNAP’s managed and unmanaged 2.5GbE/10GbE switches 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 for Windows®/Linux® workstations. allowing you to easily build a high-speed network environment for productive team collaboration.Enhance productivity with multiple USB portsWith two USB 3.2 Gen
