  More and more people are turning to network attached storage (NAS) as an
alternative for PC-based servers to store their digital contents due to native NAS
advantages such as low power consumption, small size, and easy installation/setup. The
QNAP TS-210 Turbo NAS is the most economic two-drive storage solution for Prosumers and
SOHO users who want a NAS with compelling features, solid performance, low power
consumption and high reliability.
Incorporating a Marvell 800 MHz CPU and 256MB DDRII RAM, the power consumption of the
TS-210 Turbo NAS in operation is only 14W which is much less than that of a PC. The TS-210
offers features more often found in much higher end NAS servers, including built-in iSCSI
target service, policy-based unauthorized IP blocking, SNMP (Simple Network Management
Protocol), remote replication, a Gigabit LAN port, and 3 USB ports (the front USB port
includes an auto-copy feature).
The TS-210 Turbo NAS is not only an ideal storage server but also a multimedia station
to enhance your home entertainment experience. The built-in UPnP/ DLNA media server (with
TwonkyMedia enabled) of the Turbo NAS supports gaming consoles for media playing and the
NAS works well with NFS-supported High-Definition (HD) digital media players. Also, the
TS-210’s AJAX-based NAS management software utilizes a web interface that allows
intuitive management of all the Turbo NAS features.

Virtual Disk Drive
(VDD) adds flexibility to storage expansion along with ease of management
The unique "Virtual Disk Drive" adds flexibility to expand the capacity of NAS.
By using the built-in iSCSI initiator, the NAS can connect to other iSCSI targets on the
network and turn them into virtual disks, which become multiple single volumes on the NAS.
Up to 8 virtual disks can be stacked. The NAS serves as the storage stack chaining master.
The user only needs to connect to this single entry (QNAP NAS) and is able to reach and
use all the iSCSI target storages on the network.
Flexible Built-in iSCSI Target Service
With the built-in iSCSI target feature, the NAS can be an ideal solution for backup or
storage expansion. Small business and SOHO users can easily create dedicated virtual
drives (up to 8 iSCSI devices) on the NAS for their PCs or existing servers. The iSCSI
drives on the NAS can be formatted as file system and used as local drives.
S.M.A.R.T & Advanced HDD Health Scanning (HHS)
The NAS supports Hard Disk Drive S.M.A.R.T (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting
Technology) for monitoring the hard drive status. Moreover, the NAS is embedded with HHS
Technology which supports disk checking and bad blocks scanning.
UPS Support
The NAS supports the majority of USB UPS devices (usbhid-ups supported) which enables the
users to store the data in time and avoid critical data loss when power outage occurs
during data transfer.
Complete Backup Solution
QNAP Backup Software - NetBak Replicator
The backup software, NetBak Replicator, is provided for the NAS users to perform real-time
synchronization or schedule backup from multiple PCs to the NAS.
3rd Party Backup Software Ready
The NAS works well with other backup software, e.g. Acronis True Image, CA BrightStor
ARCserve Backup, EMC Retrospect, Symantec Backup Exec, and LaCie Silverkeeper.
Encrypted Remote Replication
The data on the NAS can be backed up to or from another Turbo NAS over the network
securely.
One Touch USB Auto Copy
The one touch button can be configured to trigger instant data backup from the external
USB device to the NAS or the other way round (applies to the USB device connected to the
front USB port of the NAS only).
Cross-platform Data Sharing and Storage Center
Sharing Files across Windows, Mac, Linux, and UNIX
The NAS is designed for users to share the files across Windows, Mac, Linux, and UNIX
environment.
Support Windows AD
The Windows AD feature enables server manager to import user accounts from AD domain to
NAS to reduce the time and effort for account setup, and users can use the same set of
login name and password.
Web File Manager
The NAS provides Web File Manager for you to easily download, upload, and manage the files
on the server by web browser.
Ease of User and Share Folder Management
The NAS supports batch creation of users and share folders to save the time and effort of
the server manager in account and folder creation. For the security of Windows network
environment, server managers can hide or show network share folders.
Power Management
Hard Disk Standby
You can configure the hard disks to enter standby mode if there is no disk access within
the specified period.
Schedule Power on/ off
The flexible schedule power on/off feature is now provided on the NAS for IT
administrators to manage the NAS server's up time according to the working hours. You can
set the time for automatic system power on, power off, or restart on any days of the week.
UPS Support
The Turbo NAS supports the majority of USB UPS devices which enables the users to store
the data in time and avoid critical data loss when power outage occurs during data
transfer. It also supports advanced stand-by mode setting that you can set the time for
the server to enter standby mode when an abnormal AC power supply is detected. When the
power resumes, the server resumes to the operation status before the power outage.
Auto Power on After Power Loss
You can configure the NAS to turn on/ off when the AC power resumes after a power loss.
Secure data storage, access, and sharing
- Comprehensive event logs: Detailed logs of file-level data access to the NAS via samba,
FTP, AFP, HTTP, HTTPS, Telnet, and SSH, and networking services accessed by online users
are all recorded.
- SSL security (HTTPS): The NAS can be accessed and configured by web browser securely.
- Remote login to the NAS by SSH (secure shell) or Telnet connection is supported.
- Secure FTP: The data can be transmitted with SSL/TLS (explicit) encryption. Passive FTP
port range setup is also supported.
- Write-only access right on FTP server: The third party partners are allowed to upload
data to the NAS but not able to read or edit the data on FTP server.
Policy-based Automatic IP Blocking
To prevent the NAS from malicious attacks, the server manager can create an IP filter
policy to allow, deny, or auto-block the IP address or network domain which attempts to
connect to the NAS via SSH/ Telnet/ HTTP(S)/ FTP/ samba/ AFP.
