Powered by AMD Ryzen 7000 Series 6 Core processor and DDR5 memory, the TVS-h1277AX series combines ZFS data integrity with the upcoming Qtier storage tiering technology. It redefines performance standards for professional video collaboration and enterprise virtualization.
Zen 4 Architecture & DDR5 RAM
Powered by AMD Ryzen 7000 Series 6 Core processor and supporting up to 192 GB DDR5 memory (optional ECC supported).
Accelerate with U.2 SSDs
Features multiple hybrid bays supporting U.2 PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSDs for massive bandwidth.
Accelerate AI with NFS over RDMA
Bypass CPU overhead for high-throughput, low-latency direct storage ideal for AI workloads.
10GbE & 2.5GbE
Built-in dual 10GBASE-T and dual 2.5GbE ports accelerate large file sharing.
PCIe Gen 4 Expansion
Three PCIe Gen 4 slots for 25GbE cards or NVIDIA RTX GPU cards.
Virtualization Applications
Supports VMs, containers, centralized storage, backup, and disaster recovery.
AMD Ryzen 7000 & DDR5: Driving Multitasking Limits
Adopting the latest Zen 4 architecture, the TVS-h1277AX provides a significant IPC uplift. Combined with DDR5 memory (expandable up to 192 GB), it effortlessly handles heavy workloads, including multiple virtual machines (VMs), containers, and high-resolution video transcoding.
Fuse U.2 NVMe Speed with HDD Capacity. Qtier is Coming.
Maximize your storage efficiency without compromise. The TVS-h1277AX features hybrid bays that support both U.2 NVMe SSDs and traditional HDDs, allowing you to combine the speed of NVMe with the capacity of hard drives.
Powerful AMD Ryzen PRO 7000 Series processor with 6 cores
The TVS-h1277AX is powered by the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 7645 processor (Zen 4 architecture), delivering exceptional multitasking performance and energy efficiency. Combined with 64 GB DDR5 memory and 3 x 25GbE SmartNIC, it achieves outstanding sequential throughput and random IOPS for demanding enterprise workloads.
Qtier for QuTS hero
Maximize storage efficiency. Move active data to high-performance SSDs and cold data to high-capacity HDDs.
NFS over RDMA | Unleash the True Potential of 25GbE
Eliminate CPU bottlenecks. NFS over RDMA transfers data directly between memory, delivering local NVMe-like responsiveness to your workstation.
PCIe Gen 4 Expandability for Future-Proof Upgrades
The TVS-h1277AX is equipped with three PCIe Gen 4 slots, enabling you to install 25GbE network cards or dedicated NVIDIA RTX GPU cards for AI inference and virtual machine GPU passthrough.
Run VMs and Containers
With no additional fees, you can run multiple VMs of different OS on TVS-h1277AX. 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.
Containers
Run Docker, LXD, Kata Containers and download Container Apps using Container Station.
VM High Availability
VM Live Migration and HA (High Availability) guarantee continuous operation and minimal downtime.
Network & Virtual Switch
Flexibly allocate virtual network resources and configure VLANs to ensure virtual services via the virtual network topology in Network & Virtual Switch.
High availability (HA) and failover with dual-NAS architecture
Avoid unplanned downtime and data loss. Create a HA cluster with two TVS-h1277AX - 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).
Note: High Availability (HA) will be supported starting with QuTS hero h6.
AI-powered enterprise search
Build a smart knowledge hub with RAG Search
TVS-h1277AX integrates the Qsirch search engine with RAG technology, cloud-based large language models (LLMs), and generative AI. This enables precise natural language searches across vast NAS file content, while generating summaries and actionable insights.
Full-text search
Searches for files based on file name, content, title, metadata, email title and body text, file path, and more.
Document preview
Preview the content of unopened documents, view keyword-relevant paragraphs, and check out a few relevant sentences related to the file subject.
Image search
Search for images by color or object. AI OCR recognizes and enables capturing text from images.
At-a-glance file distribution
Stay informed of storage utilization and distribution of data and files stored on the TVS-h1277AX via charts and analytics.
