The TS-253A NAS server is designed to grow alongside with small & medium businesses, allowing its users to use the NAS as a storage device, but also a multitasking & multifunctional light-weight server. Not only is the TS-253A reliable, it is also packed with business-critical features such as LUN/ Volume Snapshot – allowing files/folders to revert to a previous state in case of any corruption, or file-loss. The TS-253A is powered by the latest Quad-core Intel Celeron N3150 CPU which allow users enjoy 4K (H.264) video playback & 1080P/4K video real-time transcoding right from the NAS to an HD/4K display. The beginning of a new era Powered by the latest 14 nm Intel Celeron N3150 quad-core 1.6 G Hz processor, dual-channel 4/8GB DDR3L-1600 RAM (upgradable to 8GB), 2 Gigabit LAN ports & SATA 6 Gb/s, the TS-253A can deliver up to 224 MB/s read speeds. The TS-253A can automatically increase the processors 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. ...
