Taiwan, Taipei, February 17, 2022 - QNAP® Systems, Inc., a leading computing, networking, and storage solution innovator, today released the flagship dual-CPU, NVMe all-flash storage TDS-h2489FU. Powered by Intel® Xeon® Silver 4300 processors (16 or 32 Cores) and featuring twenty-four U.2 NVMe Gen 4 x4 SSD bays, the TDS-h2489FU provides over 1 million iSCSI 4K random read IOPS with ultra-low latency. Besides exceptional hardware and connectivity (including two 25GbE SFP28 ports, four 2.5GbE RJ45 LAN ports, two PCIe Gen 4 slots, and 1200W redundant power supplies) the TDS-h2489FU uses the ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system that provides powerful data reduction and SSD optimization tools, maximizing all-flash investments for HPC, virtualization, file servers, and 4K/8K multimedia applications.

“The all-flash TDS-h2489FU drives high I/O performance and low latency with server-grade Xeon processors and U.2 NVMe Gen 4 x4 storage”, said Jason Hsu, Product Manager of QNAP, adding “capable of empowering mission-critical, latency-sensitive workloads out-of-the-box, with flexible PCIe Gen 4 expansion, the TDS-h2489FU can be further configured to meet extended mix-use applications and data transfer needs.”

The dual-processor TDS-h2489FU provides multiplied core performance, allowing up to 1 TB DDR4 ECC memory with 8-channel modules and 32 Long-DIMM slots to satisfy the computing, networking, and storage requirements of data center and business applications. The 2U rackmount chassis accommodates 24 drive bays for U.2 NVMe Gen 4 x4 SSDs to achieve the utmost application response times. With pre-installed 25GbE connectivity and PCIe expansion for 100GbE ultra-high-speed networking, the TDS-h2489FU fully unleashes the potential of all-flash storage to meet ever-demanding IT challenges.

The TDS-h2489FU provides two M.2 PCIe Gen 3/SATA 6Gbps slots that allows for installing data center SSDs to boost ZIL performance. Two PCIe Gen 4 slots (one slot pre-installed with a dual-port 25GbE NIC) are included for extending core NAS functionality, for example, adding additional high-speed network interface cards, QM2 cards to add M.2 SSDs and 2.5GbE/10GbE ports, fibre channel cards for SAN storage, and storage expansion cards to connect QNAP SAS/SATA expansion enclosures to attain petabyte-scale storage capacity. QNAP’s QDA-UMP4 adapter can be used to install affordable M.2 SSDs in U.2 drive bays, providing flexible yet cost-effective storage implementation for optimizing data-intensive applications.

Powered by the ZFS-based QuTS hero, the TDS-h2489FU focuses on data integrity with self-healing. Data reduction significantly reduces the overall storage footprint - especially helpful for increasing SSD storage efficiency when highly-repetitive data or massive small files are generated. Additional SSD-optimizing features include Write Coalescing, TRIM, and Pool Over-provisioning to assist in attaining the highest performance and lifespan from SSD investments. QuTS hero supports near-unlimited snapshots and versioning for enhanced data protection and prevents simultaneous multi-SSD failures to improve system reliability. The inclusive App Center also provides various install-on-demand apps to further expand the application potential of the TDS-h2489FU, such as hosting virtual machines and containers, facilitate VM backup, simplifying local/remote/cloud backups, setting up a cloud storage gateway to deploy hybrid cloud applications, and much more.
