QNAP TS-473A-8G

The device uses an AMD Ryzen™ V1000 series V1500B quad-core processor, which offers excellent performance thanks to its up to 4-core/8-thread design and 2.2Ghz Turbo Core clock speed. The TS-473A has two 2.5GbE RJ45 ports and two PCIe Gen 3 expansion slots for flexible deployment of networks up to 5GbE/10GbE. Two M.2 NVMe SSD slots allow users to enable Qtier technology and SSD caching to ensure optimal storage utilization. The TS-473A supports both QTS and QuTS hero systems, so users can switch the NAS operating system to the solution that suits them according to their needs.

High performance with AMD Ryzen™ processor
Equipped with an AMD Ryzen ™ V1000 series V1500 quad-core 2.2 GHz processor, it can support up to 64 GB of RAM (ECC memory is also supported*), and it also has USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports to support data transfer speeds of up to 10 Gb/s . The TS-473A also features a USB-C port to support additional devices to transfer large media files and ensure more efficient workflows.

Transform your network with a cost-effective 2.5 GbE switch
A network upgrade doesn't have to be expensive, and a 2.5GbE connection provides an immediately noticeable improvement over a standard 1GbE connection. QNAP 2.5 GbE switches support Multi-Gigabit NBASE-T™ technology, enabling the use of existing CAT5e cables to connect multiple computers and NAS, helping organizations build high-speed, secure and scalable network environments within budget without exceeding it.

Switch operating systems to ensure optimal data integrity and reliability
The TS-473A also supports QuTS hero - QNAP's ZFS-based NAS operating system. With end-to-end data integrity, data reduction technologies (embedded data deduplication, compression and compression) and other capabilities, QuTS hero uses remaining system resources to provide an optimal environment for protecting business data.

Increase random access speed with SSD caching
SSD cache increases IOPS performance and reduces the latency of accessing storage volumes. They are an excellent solution for IOPS demanding applications (including databases and virtualization) and significantly improve the performance of general workflows.
