From storage management and virtualization to collaborative media workflows, QuTS hero streamlines your mission-critical tasks.

Data integrity is key
QuTS hero“s self-healing features ensure 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 caching technology
Main memory read cache (L1 ARC), second level SSD read cache (L2 ARC) and the ZFS intent log (ZIL) for synchronous transactions with power failure protection are supported simultaneously to increase performance and security.

RAID Z offers reliable data protection.
Multiple RAID levels allow for flexible capacity utilization. RAID Triple Parity and Triple Mirror offer a higher level of data protection.

QSAL (QNAP SSD Antiwear Leveling) improves data security
The SSD lifespan at RAID level is automatically and regularly detected to prevent simultaneous SSD failures and improve your data security and system reliability.

App Center ecosystem expands NAS functionality
Apps for backup/sync, virtual machines/containers, content management, productivity and other functions 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, save storage capacity, and optimize performance. For example, when replicating 20 virtual machines on a NAS using the same template, the storage space requirement for all 20 virtual machines can be reduced by up to 95%. Whether used for 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 greater cost-efficiency while improving random write performance and extending SSD lifespan.


Optimization technologies for higher SSD performance and lifespan
Writing coalescence
Converts all random writes into sequential writes with reduced I/O, effectively increasing write performance in all-flash environments.

Pool Overprovisioning
Dedicated storage space can be flexibly reserved in an SSD storage pool, allowing new data to be written to a complete block even when the pool is almost full, thus improving the performance of fragmented pools.

TRIM
QuTS hero enables SSDs to be informed to delete unneeded data blocks and to process the deletion tasks during system idle times, meaning it does not have to wait until 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 easily adjust the permission settings of the secondary NAS to ensure continuous operation. SnapSync provides the strongest support for uninterrupted business operations and helps users reduce the risk of data loss.

Snapshots multiply backup protection.
With virtually unlimited, instant snapshots, you no longer need to worry. Thanks to copy-on-write technology, snapshots are created almost instantly without interrupting ongoing data writing. Snapshot Replica replicates snapshot files to the backup NAS, simplifying data backup with version control.

HBS simplifies 3-2-1 backup plans
HBS centralizes backup, recovery, and synchronization for easy data transfer from the TS-h2490FU to another QNAP NAS, a remote server, or cloud storage. HBS supports QuDedup technology, which eliminates redundant data at the source and accelerates multi-version backups.
