The TS-653D - The Ultimate NAS Solution

The TS-653D integrates 2.5GbE connectivity with an Intel J4125 2.0GHz processor. This makes it an excellent NAS solution for businesses and individual users who undertake demanding backup and restore tasks, and want to upgrade to a 2.5GbE environment. You can achieve transfer speeds of up to 5GB/s by merely setting port trunking with the server’s two in-built 2.5GbE ports.

Besides, the TS-653D supports PCIe expansion, 4K HDMI output, real-time transcoding, cloud storage gateways, and multi-cloud backups. The TS-653D’s 2GbE connectivity provides immediate improvements to your network compared to regular 1GbE. What’s more, you can conveniently install SSDs to undertake cache acceleration. This optimizes storage and network performance when running data-intensive tasks.

Unmatched Encryption Performance

The security of your data is a primary consideration when purchasing a NAS device. The TS-653D comes with an Intel Celeron 2.0GHz processor that can turbo up to 2.7GHz. It supports the Intel AES-NI encryption engine, thus boosting encryption performance while ensuring the security of your data.

By leveraging snapshot protection, this server allows you to back up device data flexibly. In recent years, there has been a growth in the number of ransomware threats. Snapshots are critical as far as NAS data protection is concerned since they provide block-level security to your data. The TS-653D server supports a max of 256 snapshots per volume, thus guaranteeing the security of your NAS data.

Maximum Backup Efficiency

The TS-653D comes with Hybrid Backup Sync (HBS) for consolidating restore, backup, and synchronization functions. This allows the secure transfer of data from the server to cloud, remote, and local storage spaces. Therefore, anyone looking for a comprehensive disaster recovery and data storage plan will find this server ideal.

The TS-653D supports QuDedup technology, which prevents the duplication of NAS data at the source. Likewise, HBS minimizes backup data size while speeding up future backup tasks. This comes in handy when accelerating multidimensional backups for better protection against data loss.

More users are looking to integrate NAS with cloud services. The TS-653D can be of great help in this regard since it allows you to undertake local caching on the server besides deploying cloud storage gateways. This way, you can use your cloud environment for data backup, recovery, and storage.

Meet Your Virtualization Needs

The TS-653D is an all-inclusive server that allows you to host your virtual containers and machines seamlessly. Whatever your virtualization needs are, you can always count on this server for comprehensive virtualization support. The Network and Virtual Switch allows you to allocate ample physical network resources to your virtual machines and containers, thus simplifying network deployment.

The TS-653D stores files and data centrally, besides supporting NFS, AFP, and SMB/CIFS file-sharing protocols across Linux, Mac, and Windows networks. This improves your file-sharing capability besides enhancing the flexibility of your team projects.

Application and Use Case

The TS-653D is high-performance server designed to handle demanding tasks backup/restore, file-sharing, and multimedia tasks. It has an MRSP of $699.00.
