PROS
๐Ÿ‘๐ŸปVery compact chassis design, despite large storage potential
๐Ÿ‘๐ŸปA BIG jump in hardware and scale from the TS-453Be and TS-453D, but with a largely identical RRP at launch
๐Ÿ‘๐ŸปEasily one of the most hardware packed SMB/Mid-range 4-Bay on the market
๐Ÿ‘๐ŸปUp to 16GB of Memory is fantastic
๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿปm.2 NVMe SSD Bays AND a PCIe Upgrade Slot (no need to choose one upgrade path)
๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป8x Included Camera Licenses
๐Ÿ‘๐ŸปIncludes Anti-virus, Firewall Tool, VPN client tools, Malware Remover, network manager and Security Councilor Tool
๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป3 Different Container/VM tools that also feature image download centers
๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป10Gb/s (1,000MB/s) USB Ports will be incredibly useful
๐Ÿ‘๐ŸปLarge range of expansion options in the TR/TL series in 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 Bays
CONS
๐Ÿ‘Ž๐ŸปThe PCIe Slot is PCIe 3ร—2 and the M.2 SSD Bays are PCIe 3ร—1 (likely limitations of all this H/W on a Celeron+chipset
๐Ÿ‘Ž๐ŸปQNAP Has had 3 ransomware hits in 2019-2021 (Qlocker, Qsnatch and Deadbolt). Lots of Security app/changes since, but people remember and QNAP needs to win back that trust in 2022/2023
