  QNAP TS-809U-RP is the new generation 2U rackmount model of the
worldwide award-winning Turbo NAS Series, providing superior performance for massive data
sharing, powerful all-in-one business server features, advanced RAID data protection,
built-in iSCSI target service, AES 256-bit volume-based encryption, and rock-solid
hot-swappable hard drive design for business.
The TS-809U-RP is featured with Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8GHz CPU and 2GB DDRII memory. It
supports RAID 0/ 1/ 5/ 6/ 5+Spare, JBOD, Online RAID Capacity Expansion, and Online RAID
Level Migration.
The Most Affordable and Flexible iSCSI Solution
The TS-809U-RP can serve as a NAS and an iSCSI target server. The built-in iSCSI target
feature provides an affordable IP-SAN (Storage Area Network) alternative for business. You
can set up the NAS to expand the storage capacity for existing application servers, such
as database server and mail server in an economic way. Moreover, the "Virtual Space
Allocation" (Thin Provisioning) feature is provided which allows you to flexibly
allocate the capacity of iSCSI LUN (Logical Unit Number) at the beginning regardless of
the physical volume capacity.
Secure Data Protection by AES 256-bit Volume-based Encryption
The TS-809U-RP's dominant "volume-based encryption" feature secures the server
data by AES 256-bit encryption. Even if the hard drives were stolen, there is no need to
fear that the confidential data would be leaked since the data can only be accessed by an
authorized password.
Versatile Applications for Business and Corporation
The TS-809U-RP supports file sharing across Linux, UNIX, Mac, and Windows platforms.
Versatile business are supported, e.g. file server, FTP server with encryption, and
printer server, PHP/MySQL supported web
server, and encrypted
remote replication, Windows AD (Active Directory) SSH login and web page SSL login.
Easy Setup and Low-cost Maintenance
The handy LCD display on the NAS provides a speedy and easy approach to initialize the NAS
and set up the RAID configuration without using any computer. The system information and
settings are also displayed for easy management. The schedule power on/off feature is
available on the NAS for you to flexibly manage the NAS server's up time according to the
working hours. Also, Wake on LAN is supported for convenient remote wakeup of the NAS in
the local network.
High Performance NAS for Business
Benefits of Dual Gigabit LAN Deployment
Failover
The dual LAN ports can be configured as failover which allows the NAS server to sustain
the failure of one network port to provide continuous services.
Load Balancing
The two LAN ports of the NAS can be configured as load balancing mode for bandwidth
aggregation to boost the file transfer speed (works with managed Ethernet switch with
802.3ad configured).
Multi-IP Setting
The NAS can be deployed with two IP settings for sharing among different workgroups in two
different subnets.
Supports access of multiple IP from different LAN areas
High Reliability, Disaster-proof NAS for Business
DOM Architecture with Embedded Fail-safe Dual OS
All the OS and applications are embedded on the DOM. The NAS allows system booting without
accessing the physical disk sectors and that avoids unsuccessful system startup caused by
bad block sectors or file errors on the hard drives. Two operating systems are built on
the DOM for system booting alternatively upon every system startup. When one fails, the
other one will be used to boot up instead, and the failed OS is recoverable from the other
healthy OS.
Advanced RAID Management with How-swap Design
The NAS offers advanced RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 5 + Spare, Single, and JBOD disk configurations.
It also supports hot-swap design that a failed drive can be replaced by hot swapping
without turning off the server. Besides, the best-in-class RAID on the NAS brings users a
higher level of data security by allowing one more hard drive failure than other NAS of
the same level.
Online RAID Capacity
Expansion
The storage capacity of a RAID configuration can be expanded by replacing the hard drives
with larger ones. All the data will be kept and seamlessly moved to the newly installed
hard drives. There is no need to turn off the server during the process.
Online RAID Level Migration
You can upgrade the disk configuration to higher RAID level with the data retained. There
is no need to turn off the server during the process.
Built-in iSCSI
Target Service
The TS-809U-RP can act as a NAS and iSCSI target server at the same time. It provides a
cost-efficient iSCSI solution to set up an IP-SAN. You can make use of the built-in iSCSI
target service to add up to 8 iSCSI devices. Different iSCSI Target LUNs (Logical Unit
Number) can be defined as storage expansion or backup destination of the existing
application servers, such as database servers and mail servers.
Furthermore, the "Virtual Space Allocation" (Thin Provisioning) feature is
provided which allows you to flexibly allocate the capacity of iSCSI LUN (Logical Unit
Number) at the beginning stage without the limitation of the volume space. When the
physical storage capacity of the volume is going to be full, you can easily expand the
storage capacity by "online RAID capacity expansion", or adjust/ remove the
current unused volume space according to the demands.
A.iSCSI Application: Storage expansion for application servers
B.NAS Application: File sharing through SMB/CIFS, AFP and NFS
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.
Efficient 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 provided on the NAS for you to manage the
NAS server's up time according to the working hours.
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. 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.
 Redundant Power Supply
The TS-809U-RP is equipped with two power supply units, each of which is capable of
supplying the power for the entire NAS independently. If one of the units fails, the other
one will take over to supply the power to ensure continuous operation of the NAS. You can
replace the failed power supply unit without turning off the server.
High Manageability NAS for Business
Touch-N-Go PC-less Installation
You can use the handy LCD to finish the first time installation in 3 simple steps. The NAS
will automatically complete the hard disk formatting and RAID building.
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.
Windows AD
The Windows AD feature enables you to import user accounts from AD domain to NAS to reduce
the time and effort for account setup, and the 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 your time and effort in
account and folder creation. For the security of Windows network environment, you can hide
or show network share folders.
