2nd Gen AMD EPYC processors and DDR4 ECC memory
The TS-h2490FU is armed with 2nd Gen AMD EPYC 7002 series processors (Rome). Based on the "Zen 2" architecture with cutting-edge 7nm process technology, up to 128 PCIe lanes of I/O are provided for 32Gb/s dedicated bandwidth per SSD. With DDR4 ECC memory that detects and corrects single-bit memory errors for higher reliability, the TS-h2490FU provides 8-channel modules and 16 Long-DIMM slots to fulfill memory-intensive workloads.
Demonstrating immense computing power and multi-tasking capabilities, the TS-h2490FU is the ideal choice for uncompromising performance demands in HPC, virtualization, and hybrid/multi-cloud applications.
U.2 NVMe Gen 3 x4 All-Flash Storage Array
The 2U rackmount TS-h2490FU has 24 drive bays for U.2 NVMe Gen 3 x4 SSDs, with each individual SSD having 32Gb/s dedicated bandwidth for the utmost application response times. Coupled with powerful ZFS data deduction and SSD optimization technologies, the TS-h2490FU provides solid foundations for overcoming complexity and performance demands in today's evolving data center workloads.
Supports larger capacity U.2 SSD
The single capacity of U.2 NVMe SSDs has increased from 7.68 TB to up to 61.44 TB, allowing the TS-h2490FU all-flash NAS to provide over 1 PB of raw capacity when fully populated. It supports workload-demanding applications such as enterprise data centers, AI/machine learning, edge storage, and virtual machines with ease.
Verified as Veeam Ready Object
QuObjects is verified Veeam Ready, ensuring both compatibility and reliability for achieving efficient backup and recovery with Veeam Backup & Replication.
Empower high-speed data transfer with four 25GbE ports
The TS-h2490FU provides breakthrough network connectivity with two pre-installed dual-port 25GbE SFP28 SmartNICs (that use the Broadcom NetXtreme-E Series BCM57414, Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx, or the same level SmartNIC). With failover and Port Trunking for up to 100Gb/s bandwidth, the TS-h2490FU empowers your organization with the bandwidth to tackle the most demanding applications, including data centers, virtualization, massive file transfer, high-speed backup/restoration, and multimedia transmission.
Leverage the M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD to U.2 Adapter
Install one or more QDA adapter in the TS-h2490FU to maximize PCIe bandwidth utilization in a cost-effective way by using M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD instead of the U.2 SSD for optimizing data-intensive applications. It can also boost IOPS performance when configuring SSD caching. Users can monitor drive health and manage SSD usage from the QTS Storage & Snapshots Manager. The M.2 SSD installed in the QDA adapter is hot swappable.
Multiple PCIe Gen 4 slots for flexible expansion
The TS-h2490FU is equipped with five PCIe Gen 4 slots. With twice the I/O performance of PCIe Gen 3, the TS-h2490FU can take advantage of many PCIe cards to expand application potential.
10GbE/25GbE/4 0GbE/100GbE network cards
Enable lightning-fast throughput for bandwidth-hungry tasks (such as virtualization, massive data transmission, and fast backup/restoration).
QM2 M.2 SSD/10GbE cards
Add M.2 SSD caching or 10GbE (10GBASE-T) connectivity for optimized performance and bandwidth.
SAS/SATA storage expansion cards
Designed for connecting the TS-h2490FU to SAS 12Gb/s or SATA 6Gb/s expansion units for petabyte-scale storage capacity.
Robust hardware paralleled to boost all-flash NVMe performance
The TS-h2490FU features high-level hardware with an expandable architecture to provide businesses with high performance and low latency access. With a removable motherboard drawer design, IT staff can easily maintain the TS-h2490FU without needing to remove it from the rack.
ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system enhances NAS performance and data integrity
QuTS hero combines the app-based QTS with the 128-bit ZFS file system to provide flexible storage management, comprehensive data protection, and optimized performance to tackle the complexity and performance demands of modern IT. From storage management, virtualization, to collaborative media workflows, QuTS hero streamlines your business-critical tasks.
Data integrity is key
QuTS hero's self-healing ensures data integrity and reliability. Write Once, Read Many (WORM) is also supported.
Data reduction improves storage efficiency and performance
Inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction reduce file size to conserve storage capacity and optimize performance.
Multi-level cache technology
Main memory read cache (L1 ARC), SSD second-level read cache (L2 ARC), and ZFS Intent Log (ZIL) for synchronous transactions with power fail protection are simultaneously supported to boost performance and security.
RAID Z enables robust data protection
Multiple RAID levels allow flexible capacity utilization. RAID Triple Parity and Triple Mirror deliver higher levels of data protection.
QSAL (QNAP SSD Antiwear Leveling) enhances data protection
RAID-level SSD lifespan is automatically and regularly detected to prevent simultaneous SSD failure, improving your data protection and system reliability.
App Center ecosystem extends NAS functionality
Apps for backup/sync, virtual machines/containers, content management, productivity, and more features can be used to expand the application potential of the TS-h2490FU.
Inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction improve SSD endurance
QuTS hero supports advanced block-based data reduction technologies (including inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction) to reduce file sizes, conserve storage capacity, and optimize performance. For example, if 20 virtual machines on a NAS are replicated using the same template, then storage space requirements for all 20 virtual machines can be reduced by up to 95%. Whether acting as primary or backup storage, the TS-h2490FU optimizes storage utilization to provide a reliable storage cornerstone in the Big Data era. All-flash solutions thus achieve higher cost efficiency while improving both random write performance and SSD lifespan.
More SSD performance and lifespan optimization technologies
Write Coalescing
Transforms all random writes to sequential writes along with reduced I/O, effectively increasing write performance in all-flash environments.
Pool Over-provisioning
Dedicated space can be flexibly reserved in an SSD storage pool to allow new data to be written into a complete block even if the pool is almost full, thus improving the performance of fragmented pools.
TRIM
Allows QuTS hero to inform SSDs to delete unneeded data blocks and process the deletion tasks during system idle times, meaning it does not have to wait for when new data is written to the block.
Real-time SnapSync ensures minimal RPO with real-time disaster recovery
Real-time SnapSync ensures that both the primary and secondary NAS maintain identical data. When data is written to the source, it is immediately written to the destination. If the primary NAS goes offline, IT staff can simply adjust the privilege settings of the secondary NAS to ensure continuous operations. SnapSync provides the strongest support for nonstop business operations and helps users to reduce the risk of data loss.
The TS-h2490FU also supports snapshots and remote backup to help organizations accomplish routine backup tasks cost-effectively and efficiently.
