Quad-core CPU and built-in two 10GbE SFP+ ports

The TS-431XU is equipped with an AnnapurnaLabs, an Amazon company Alpine AL314 quad-core 1.7 GHz ARM® Cortex-A15 processor with 2GB DDR3 RAM (upgradable to 16GB) and SATA 6Gb/s hard drive interface. Its hardware-accelerated encryption engine provides unmatched encryption performance in its class with AES 256-bit full NAS volume encryption, boosting system performance & security while ensuring the safety of sensitive business data stored in the TS-431XU. Besides two inbuilt Gigabit Ethernet ports, the TS-431XU also includes two 10GbE SFP+ ports to fully support 10GbE high-speed networks For businesses that demand higher bandwidth For virtualization and fast backup & restoration For an ever-growing amount of data. The extra Pcie slot allows For the installation of a 10GbE SFP+ NIC For flexible high-speed network deployment.

QM2 expansion card redefines NAS function

QNAP's QM2 is a Pcie expansion card that features dual M.2 SSD Slots and 10GbE connectivity* (individual cards may vary in functionality). This allows users to easily set up SSD caching to optimize NAS performance. 10GbE-compatible models can also future proof the TS-431XU For use with 10GbE networks. Equipped with a dedicated cooling module, the QM2 can maintain its high performance even when tasked with the highest workloads.

SSD cache acceleration

The TS-431XU supports SSD caching to greatly boost the IOPS performance of storage volumes to increase operational efficiency. It is perfect For improving the overall workflow of IOPS-demanding applications and allows the best of both cost and performance by combining SSDs with HDDs.

High reliability design ensuring business continuity

The business-ready TS-431XU is designed to provide 24/7 operations and services. The support For comprehensive RAID configurations and hot-swapping allow For replacing hard drives without service interruption. QNAP's advanced RAID recovery technology also helps if any healthy drives are accidentally removed from a degraded RAID volume. The system can be recovered by reinserting the wrongly-removed hard drives so the data can still be accessible. The TS-431XU delivers high reliability and efficiency with support For multiple port-trunking modes including fail-over support.
