This Edge Cloud Turbo vNAS enclosure has the ability to house both 3.5" and 2.5" hard drives as well as SSDs. Once drives have been installed, it can provide a data throughput of over 2000 MB/s. You can attach optional QNAP RAID expansion enclosures to give on-demand raw storage capacity for the Edge Cloud. To provide an extra boost of IOPS performance, you can install two mSATA SDDs, which are configured for caching. This NAS also supports JBOD and a variety of RAID modes including RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10, which can offer data redundancy, speed, or a combination of both. In addition, QNAP has provided a built-in App Center that features over a hundred on-demand apps so you can utilize the TVS-EC1080 Turbo vNAS in limitless possibilities.

The QNAP Turbo vNAS sports a quad-core Intel Xeon E3-1245 v3 processor and 16GB of RAM to enhance the efficiency of NAS-consuming tasks such as running multiple virtual machines, real-time 4K transcoding and serving large numbers of simultaneous connections. It can stream your multimedia library and is able to perform on-the-fly and offline video transcoding, which converts the video's resolution based upon the device's native resolution. While network connectivity is achieved using its four Gigabit Ethernet ports, this NAS can be expanded with an optional Gigabit Ethernet card or a 10GbE network adapter, which delivers faster data transmissions. Furthermore, QNAP has equipped the TVS-EC1080 with an HDMI output along with USB ports that let you use your monitor, keyboard, and mouse to access it directly.
