ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system enhances NAS performance and data integrity
QuTS hero combines the app-based QTS with the 128-bit ZFS file system to provide flexible storage management, comprehensive data protection, and optimized performance to tackle the complexity and performance demands of modern IT. From storage management, virtualization, to collaborative media workflows, QuTS hero streamlines your business-critical tasks.
Tiered storage configuration for a QuTS hero NAS
Basic requirements for setup are similar to QTS. We recommend you to follow these steps to acquire optimal storage efficiency and performance for QuTS hero.
Step 1: System Drive & Default Shared Folders
Step 2: Read Cache & ZIL
Step 3: Data Storage
Build a highly-efficient backup center with inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction
QuTS hero supports advanced data reduction technologies (including inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction) to reduce file sizes, conserve storage capacity, and optimize performance. By deploying a GM-1000 system, you can configure one TNS-h1083X as primary storage and the other TNS-h1083X as backup storage, or offload services between the two NAS nodes and set cross backup. The TNS-h1083X also comes with snapshot protection, real-time SnapSync, and HBS remote backup services to assist organizations in accomplishing daily backup tasks with greater efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
Perfect backup storage paired with dual-controller Enterprise ZFS NAS
QNAP’s QuTS hero and QES operating systems use ZFS. Therefore, the TNS-h1083X is the perfect backup storage for the dual-controller Enterprise ZFS NAS using real-time SnapSync. If the Enterprise ZFS NAS unexpectedly stops, the TNS-h1083X (with synchronized, identical data) can immediately take over operations and services to prevent costly downtime.

Note: Enterprise ZFS NAS requires QES 2.1 (or later).
Cloud Storage Gateway provides low latency access to cloud-based data
The TNS-h1083X perfectly integrates NAS with mainstream cloud services. By deploying cloud storage gateways and enabling local caching on the TNS-h1083X using M.2 (NVMe Gen 3 x2) and U.2 (NVMe Gen 3 x4 / SATA 6Gb/s) SSD slots (M.2 and U.2 SSDs are purchased separately), organizations can seamlessly use the cloud for storage, backup, and data recovery with low-latency access, realizing cost-effective, flexible and secure hybrid cloud applications.
