8-core short-depth 2U NAS with redundant power
A diskless eight-bay short-depth 2U NAS with an Intel Atom C5125 eight-core processor, 8GB DDR4 memory, dual 2.5GbE, dual M.2, dual PCIe and two 300W power supplies.

The TS-855eU-RP-8G is a compact eight-bay rackmount NAS for file serving, backup, virtualisation and container workloads. It combines short-depth hardware with expandable memory, M.2 and PCIe expansion, plus redundant power supplies.
Compare NAS types, storage considerations and practical features before selecting your next network storage system.
The Intel Atom C5125 processor provides eight cores at 2.8GHz. The NAS includes 8GB non-ECC SODIMM DDR4 memory and supports up to 64GB using two 32GB modules.
ECC memory is supported. For dual-DIMM configurations, use a pair of identical modules.
Two 2.5GbE RJ45 ports support 2.5G, 1G, 100M and 10M speeds, with Port Trunking and network fault tolerance described in the product information.
Two M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 3 x4 slots support compatible NVMe SSDs, while two PCIe Gen 3 x4 slots can add faster networking, QM2 or Fibre Channel connectivity.
The product information lists centralised virtualisation storage, virtual machines, containerised applications and SR-IOV support.
Compatible TL-R1620Sep-RP and TL-R1220Sep-RP JBOD units can add capacity for up to 48 additional drives.
Two 300W redundant power supply units with 100-240V input are included.
The redundant design helps maintain system operation if one power supply becomes unavailable.
