Expand storage capacity by connecting multiple high-performance QNAP JBOD devices, ideal for large-scale data storage, backups, and long-term archiving. Check Compatible Devices >
Future-proof your storage with JBOD scalability
As file volumes and storage needs grow, the TS-h1277AFX can connect up to eight QNAP 16-bay TL-R1620Sep-RP JBOD expansion units, adding up to 128 additional hard drives and providing substantial storage capacity.
QNAP JBOD enclosures can only be used as an independent storage pool or volume. They cannot be combined with the storage pool or disk volume of the NAS host. NAS applications can only be installed on the host NAS.
Guarding every spark of creativity
Instant disaster recovery mechanisms effectively counter ransomware threats, ensuring your production workflow remains uninterrupted and your valuable content stays protected.
Double your protection with hybrid cloud:
Backup to myQNAPcloud Storage and access anytime
Back up your TS-h1277AFX to myQNAPcloud Storage using Hybrid Backup Sync for secure, efficient data management—without any additional bandwidth fees.
The TS-h1277AFX also supports 20+ major public clouds, ensuring near-LAN access speeds for seamless cloud sharing and multi-point synchronization.
High availability (HA) and failover with dual-NAS architecture
Avoid unplanned downtime and data loss. Dive into details
Create a HA cluster with two TS-h1277AFX — one as the active server, and the other as the passive server. If an unexpected failure or issue with the active server occurs, the passive server provides immediate protection with automatic failover. This ensures continuous storage service and system availability.
-
Easy management and monitoring
Use the High Availability Manager app to easily configure, remove, or rebuild clusters.
-
Guaranteed data consistency
Real-time data sync between active and passive servers minimizes the risk of data loss (RPO).
-
Ensured continuity of critical business
The passive server takes over within 1 minute if the active server fails (RTO < 60 secs).
Trusted storage for virtualization
Run VMs and Containers
With no additional fees, you can run multiple VMs of different OS on TS-h1277AFX. This allows you to deploy multi-tenant environments and applications to increase management efficiency and save hardware costs.
-
VMs
Securely run Windows®, Linux®, UNIX®, QuTScloud VMs using Virtualization Station Simply plug in a keyboard, mouse, and HDMI™ display to use the VM like a normal PC.
