The TS-253A can automatically increase the processor's clock rate from 1.6 G Hz to 2.08 G Hz when performing CPU-intensive tasks. The TS-253A features Intel AES-NI hardware-accelerated encryption engine to drive transfer speeds of up to 224 MB/s with AES 256-bit encryption for both full NAS volume & shared folders, boosting system performance & security while ensuring the safety of sensitive business data stored in the TS-253A. Superior real-time & offline 4K video transcoding* Featuring advanced 8th-generation Intel HD Graphics, the TS-253A supports 4K (H.264) hardware decoding & delivers superior real-time 4K (H.264) & 1080p video transcoding to convert videos to universal formats that can be smoothly played on PCs, mobile devices & Smart TVs. With offline transcoding, even when you can only connect using a low-speed Internet connection, you can still enjoy smooth video playback via File Station, Video Station, & the Qfile mobile app by selecting a pre-rendered lower resolution video. The TS-253A also means that you can set a dedicated folder for automatic video transcoding. QTS 4.2
- Simple, convenient & efficient Thanks to the intuitive user interface of QTS, your NAS experience is smarter, smoother & spectacular. Its modern flat design streamlines loading times, & the intelligent desktop means that you can find desired functions quickly, create desktop shortcuts or group shortcuts, monitor important system information on a real-time basis, & open multiple application windows to run multiple tasks concurrently, bringing greater working efficiency. Disaster recovery solutions brings peace of mind The TS-253A offers various data recovery options. RTRR (Real-Time Remote Replication) supports real time or scheduled data backup to a remote QNAP NAS or FTP server & synchronizes files to a remote folder from a local folder with better backup efficiency. The TS-253A also supports the rsync protocol to back up data to another remote server on a scheduled basis. Data can also be backed up to & restored from a range of cloud storage services, including Amazon S3, Amazon Glacier, Microsoft Azure, Elephant Drive, Dropbox, Google Drive, Google Cloud Storage, & more.

You can take snapshots for both volumes & LUN (up to 256 snapshots per volume or LUN & maximum 1024 snapshots per NAS ), efficiently replicate volume/LUN snapshots via Snapshot Replica to remote servers by copying only the changes made, & quickly clone a volume /LUN snapshot as a local volume without interrupting the current system operation. You can even set up the system to automatically take a snapshot of the volume before backup via RTRR/rsync, even when the file is opened. Datastore for virtualized environments The TS-253A is also an i SCSI/ IP-SAN storage that supports VMware & Citrix, & is compatible with Microsoft Hyper-V & Windows Server 2012, benefiting flexible deployment & management in any virtualization environments. The TS-253A supports VMware VAAI & Microsoft ODX to increase performance by offloading server loading for ESXi server & Hyper-V respectively, & supports QNAP v Sphere Client plug-in & QNAP SMI-S provider with enhanced operational efficiency & management in virtualization applications.
