You can also use your laptop with a QNAP USB 3.2 Gen 1 to 5 GbE adapter (QNA-UC5G1T) or your desktop computer with a QNAP 5 GbE network expansion card (QXG-5G1T-111C) and connect it directly to the TS-431X3“s 2.5 GbE port to enjoy 2.5 times faster transfer speeds.

Easily create a high-speed network environment
10GbE improves overall network performance and daily tasks with ten times the bandwidth of 1GbE. From 10GbE NAS to switches to network adapters, QNAP offers a comprehensive range of everything needed to upgrade to 10GbE environments.

Multipoint file backup, access and synchronization
HBS (Hybrid Backup Sync) consolidates data backup, recovery, and synchronization. Combined with the TS-431X3“s 10GbE and 2.5GbE high-speed connectivity, you can easily backup or synchronize data to another QNAP NAS, a remote server, or cloud storage to build a reliable disaster recovery solution. Qsync turns the TS-431X3 into a secure, high-capacity data center for file synchronization. Any file uploaded to the TS-431X3 is made available to all connected devices, such as computers, notebooks, and mobile devices. You can also synchronize shared folders or create team folders to improve team collaboration.

Increase productivity with QNAP applications
QNAP File Station provides centralized file management, allowing you to view and manage files on your TS-431X3 and other storage sources or devices. Qfiling helps automate file organization, and Qsirch can make your file search faster. You can also use the Qfile mobile app to access NAS files from a mobile device.

Qfiling
Qfiling automates file organization. Files are automatically archived in folders based on your settings.

Qsirch
Search for images, music, videos, documents, emails and other files using keywords, colors and different filters.

Qfile
With the Qfile mobile app, you can access NAS files from a mobile device anytime, anywhere, and upload and back up files from your phone to a NAS.

Easy photo management with QuMagie-Automated AI photo categorization
QuMagie brings you a brand new photo management experience. By integrating an AI deep learning algorithm, QuMagie enables face detection, object recognition and geotagging of photos on your NAS. Similar photos are grouped into the AI albums (i.e. People, Things and Places). Other useful features include built-in timeline scrolling, customizable folder images and a powerful search tool, giving you the ultimate solution for photo management and sharing.

Protect your sensitive data with file encryption
If you share sensitive or confidential files on your TS-431X3, you can improve data security by using File Station to encrypt them into .qenc files and set a password. File recipients need to download and install QENC Decrypter on their computers and enter the correct password to decrypt, view and use encrypted .qenc files.

Protect data from malware with snapshots
Snapshots help you protect your data by fully recording the NAS system status and metadata. If a file is accidentally deleted or modified, you can use snapshots from Storage & Snapshots Manager or File Station to quickly restore files to the previously recorded state. QNAP snapshots are block-based and only record changed data. This not only saves storage space but also shortens the time for backing up and restoring data. The TS-431X3 supports up to 64 snapshots per volume/LUN and up to 256 snapshots in total.

Take full control over the status of the NAS system and data security
Notification Center consolidates all events and alerts of the QTS system and provides you with a comprehensive app solution for notifications. Security Counselor can evaluate and recommend the security settings of the TS-431X3 to improve the security of the NAS.

Host Container Applications
Container Station integrates LXC and Docker® virtualization technologies. You can download apps from the integrated Docker Hub®, easily import or export container apps, manage access controls, and quickly deploy application services across multiple platforms such as the cloud, servers, and PCs.

Flexible and cost-effective storage expansion
QNAP offers easy solutions to expand storage capacity. Here are several ways to expand your NAS storage as needed to accommodate data and business growth:

Expand RAID capacity
Hot-swap smaller capacity drives with larger capacity drives to expand the storage capacity of your QNAP NAS so it can grow with your business.

Attaching the expansion housing
Connect 2 RAID expansion enclosures (TR-004, TR-002 or TL-D800C) and use QTS Storage & Snapshots Manager to easily handle NAS capacity expansion.

Migrate to a new NAS
Install your NAS hard drives on a larger QNAP NAS and keep your existing data and configurations.
