TS-264 is a compact 2-bay NAS with superior performance. Supporting up to 22 TB storage and 4 TB M.2 SSD caching* at an affordable price, the TS-264 fulfills your multitasking challenges for file management, backup, collaboration, and video conversion.
2.5GbE NAS is a must in 2023 With increasing availability on switches, motherboards, and laptops, 2023 is the year of 2.5GbE. By setting port trunking with the two built-in 2.5GbE (2.5G/1G/100M) ports to unleash network potential and increase fault tolerance, the TS-264 delivers up to 589 MB/s transfer speeds for fast data access workflow
Processor Intel® Celeron® N5095 quad-core processor, burst up to 2.9 GHz
GPU Built-in Intel® UHD Graphics to speed up video processing and graphical computing
Memory Built-in 8 GB DDR4 memory..
Encryption Engine Features Intel® AES-NI 256 hardware-accelerated encryption to boost system performance while securing sensitive data.
Upgrade to dual-port 10GbE with a PCIe network card With a superior hardware design, you can install a dual-port 10GbE network card QXG-10G2TB in the TS-264. Combining 10GbE networking, quad-core processor, and M.2 SSD caching, the TS-264 unleashes its full performance potential.
Expand storage capacity up to 14 hard drives TS-264 supports a storage capacity of up to 22 TB by installing two 3.5-inch 22 TB hard drives in RAID 1. By connecting a TL-D1600S QNAP storage expansion unit, you can add an additional fourteen hard drives to the TS-264 to achieve up to 240 TB storage space to meet growing storage requirements.
Accelerate AI–powered image recognition and caching with TPU and PCIe expansion TS-264 has two M.2 PCIe Gen 3 slots for installing NVMe SSD (including Apacer®, Micron®, Seagate®, WD®, and more) or Edge TPU.
Install M.2 NVMe SSDs for cache acceleration or efficient tiered storage If you have a huge number of small files requiring read/write operations, you can easily boost IOPS of TS-264 by configuring its two M.2 SSDs as a cache disk.
When transmitting bigger files, you can create a storage pool with two M.2 SSDs. With Qtier automatically moving hot data to SSD and cold data to hard drives, TS-264 allows you to enjoy exceptional application performance.
Accelerate AI–powered image recognition with TPU By leveraging a Edge TPU to QNAP AI Core (the AI-powered engine for image recognition), the TS-264 can perform high-speed face and object recognition. Edge TPU enables QuMagie to quickly process thousands of photos with high-speed AI Image recognition and classification, and QVR Face to analyze real-time video for instant facial recognition.
Abundant I/O capabilities with PCIe expansion QNAP offers a wide range of expansion cards to add versatile functions to your NAS. The TS-264 has one PCIe Gen 3 x2 slot that supports various expansion cards for expanding application potential.
One Touch Copy backup with USB 3.2 Gen 2 TS-264 provides two 10Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports for faster file transfer to/from USB 3.2 Gen 2 devices. The One Touch Copy button also allows you to back up the contents of USB devices to the TS-264 with a single button press.
Smoother mobile experience with GPU Taking a lot of photos with your smartphone? Qfile mobile app will help you free up space by automatically backing up photos to the TS-264. With Intel® UHD Graphics, the TS-264 greatly speeds up converting videos to 1080p / 720p, allowing for smooth streaming to mobile devices over varying mobile network speeds.
Use your NAS like a PC QNAP’s exclusive Virtualization Station enables running multiple Windows®/Linux® virtual machines. By connecting a keyboard, mouse, and HDMI monitor, you can easily use the TS-264 as a PC.
