Last modified date: 2020-08-20

QTS is the QNAP NAS operating system designed to enhance your productivity and enrich your digital life. While QTS makes file sharing easy, users only get the full benefits of using a NAS with a user account.

Users with administrator privileges can easily create a user account to share the NAS with family members, friends, or colleagues.
