Performance & reliability. Your wise choice. The TS-977XU supports advanced business features to provide maximized efficiency and performance while ensuring 24/7 services. USB 3.1 USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10Gbps) provides speeds up to 10Gb/s (double the speed of USB 3.0) to greatly boost data transfer performance, allowing for transferring large files faster and more easily. Central management Designed for IT administrators, QRM+ provides a single-point solution to discover, map, monitor and manage all Windows®, Linux® and IPMI devices in your network, and facilitates device discovery with a graphical topology diagram. Optimized performance for VMware Virtualization with iSER With the built-in dual 10GbE ports that natively features Mellanox® ConnectX-4, the TS-977XU supports the iSCSI Extensions for RDMA (iSER) protocol to boost data transfer performance of the TS-977XU as VMware® ESXi storage and to reduce the CPU load of the ESXi server. iSER can provide a significant increase in performance, providing an essential tool to optimize demanding virtualization applications. Block-based iSCSI LUN: Ideal choice for virtualization storage The TS-977XU supports block-based iSCSI LUN that provides a more reliable and isolated environment than file-based LUN. Supporting VMware®, Citrix®, Microsoft® Hyper-V® and Windows Server® 2016, the TS-977XU provides a high-performance, reliable and affordable storage solution for virtualization environments, while also supporting VMware VAAI and Microsoft ODX to increase performance by offloading server loading for ESXi server and Hyper-V respectively, and supporting QNAP vSphere Client plug-in and QNAP SMI-S provider with enhanced operational efficiency and management in virtualization applications. All-in-one server to host virtual machines and containers Virtualization Station and Container Station jointly introduce a hybrid approach to virtualization. No matter your virtualization needs, you can count on QNAP for complete virtualization support. Virtualization Station Virtualization Station allows you to run multiple Windows®, Linux®, UNIX® and Android™ virtual machines and access them via a web browser or VNC (Virtual Network Computing). Businesses can run virtualized server applications on a single NAS without the need for additional physical servers. Container Station Container Station integrates LXC and Docker® lightweight virtualization technologies. You can download apps from the built-in Docker Hub Registry®. It supports container import/export and permission settings. It’s easy deployment, portable, and efficient. Upgrade your IT environment with QNAP's fast and affordable 10GbE Switch! QNAP 10GbE/NBASE-T™ unmanaged switches allow you to instantly upgrade your network environment at a cost-effective price. With a 10GbE network you can enjoy blazing-fast transfer speeds, empower bandwidth-demanding tasks like virtualization, and enable simultaneous real-time access to large NAS-based files using multiple workstations (ideal for video editing and multimedia).
