I have three older hard drives just sitting around, I put them in and have been testing them to see how this unit would react, so far not one hiccup. I'm going to add four Seagate IronWolf Pro ST10000NE0004 10TB 7200 RPM 256MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drives later this week. If all goes well, later I'll add my second TR-004 to my TS-253Be. (according from Qnap Two TR-004 is the max you can add to compatible Qnap Nas systems)


Package was shipped quickly and arrived without delays


- Well made - Nice little heatsink on the chip. - Fast ... really fast !

I buy this NAS for the 2.5 LAN .. I haven't fully tested it yet... but I want to say that the packaging and delivery were EXCELLENT.

Up to snuff and as advertised. Currently have a 12 and 6 as is JBOD

This QNAP runs quickly and quietly. The VM is Microsoft Server 2019, and it is very fast. I have it configured to boot off of a RAID-1 SSD drive array, and the AMD Ryzen processor is very fast. Adding RAM and the SSD drives was EASY. Very nice design on the case, easy access 3 screws and that was it. I added five 16-TB drives in RAID-5, and it is used as a Veeam Offsite Repository target server.

As of DSM 7.3 you can now use any name brand drive again. I tested with my old 4 TB Seagate Red drives and no issues.



Packaged great and DVD is spotless and worked perfectly.

DDR5 gives on-die error correction Extra bays give cache options Compatible RAM upgrades TrueNAS compatibility

Easy setup, when knowing exactly what you need. Recommend adding RAM, any DDR4-sodimm. I used 3200 even though 2666 is recommended and it works. Great server for plex!



i was looking for a new Plex server for full 4k HD remux HEVC mkv files. This is it!!! Play files without issue using LG tv plex app. If youre looking for a new Plex server you wont regret this purchase.

This was supper easy to set up!!

* easy to install * performs as specified with both Windows 2019 Hyper-V Server and Debian Linux

Worked well, went in easy. Very strong.
