QNAP TS-1264U-RP-8G-US 12-Bay 2U Rackmount NAS

QNAP TS-1264U-RP-8G-US – 12-Bay Rackmount NAS

Overview

The QNAP TS-1264U-RP-8G-US is a high-capacity 2U rackmount NAS powered by an Intel Celeron N5095/N5105 quad-core processor. Designed for professional business environments, it balances high-density storage with enterprise-grade reliability, making it an ideal choice for centralized backup, file sharing, and virtualization storage.

This unit features 12 hot-swappable SATA 6Gb/s drive bays and dual 2.5GbE connectivity, providing high-bandwidth potential for modern office networks. The "RP" designation indicates the inclusion of dual 300W redundant power supplies, which ensures the NAS remains operational even if one power unit fails—solving a critical pain point for businesses that cannot afford system downtime.

Deployment is optimized for standard 19-inch server racks. The TS-1264U-RP supports PCIe Gen 3 expansion, allowing for the addition of 10GbE network cards or QM2 cards for M.2 SSD caching. Additionally, its HDMI 1.4b output allows for direct 4K monitoring of surveillance feeds or local multimedia playback, while hardware-accelerated encryption ensures data security without compromising performance.

Do not use this NAS in non-racked environments without proper support, as the 2U chassis is designed specifically for rail-kit mounting. Ensure that the total power consumption of installed 3.5-inch drives stays within the thermal and electrical limits of the redundant 300W power supply units to maintain N+1 reliability.
