The QNAP TVS-951X 5/9-Bay NAS featuring 10GBASE-T for the Home
QNAP NAS have really been busy in Q2 of 2018. We have seen a considerably number of new NAS server devices be revealed by them and none have split opinion in the way the 9-Bay (5 Hard Drive and 4 SSD) based NAS range has. The latest unit to join this colleciton is the new QNAP TVS-951X NAS and with 10Gbe (10Gbase-T), an HDMI port and an impressive Intel Celeron CPU – this could potentially be the best of the bunch! Let’s find out what the QNAP TVS-951X has in store for us in 2018.
What are the Specifications of the QNAP TVS-951X 10Gbe NAS
The TVS-951X is cost effective and suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMBs), as well as home users looking to invest in a media NAS that is 10Gbe enabled.

When will the QNAP TVS-951X NAS be Released?
Release details are still very thin on the ground at the moment. Like the QNAP TS-963X and TS-932X, this new TVS-951X does not have an official release date yet, however we think it will land in late Q2 or very early Q3. The QNAP TVS-951X is the latest in a line of 9 Bay NAS devices that arrive with 10Gbe connectivity, at an affordable price. We hope to see more information on this NAS in the next month or so and will of course update you as soon as we hear more.
