AMD Ryzen processing and expandable memory
The AMD Ryzen Embedded V1500B provides four cores, eight threads and a 2.2GHz clock speed for storage, virtualisation and multi-user workloads.
This configuration includes 8GB SODIMM DDR4 memory and supports up to 64GB using two 32GB modules. ECC memory is supported, and a dual-DIMM configuration requires a pair of identical DDR4 modules.
- 64-bit x86 architecture with AES-NI encryption support.
- Optional graphics processing and hardware-accelerated transcoding are available through a compatible PCIe adapter.
- The system includes 5GB flash memory with dual-boot operating-system protection.
Eight drive bays and dual M.2 NVMe slots
Eight 3.5-inch SATA 6Gb/s and 3Gb/s bays support compatible 3.5-inch SATA hard drives and 2.5-inch SATA solid state drives.
Two M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 3 x1 slots support compatible NVMe SSDs for SSD cache acceleration and Qtier storage optimisation.
- The NAS is supplied without storage drives, and M.2 SSDs are not included.
- Drive bays are hot-swappable; M.2 SSDs, SSD cache drives and SSDs installed through PCIe expansion slots are not hot-swappable.
- The supplied information recommends a heatsink for each M.2 SSD because operation can generate significant heat.
Dual 2.5GbE and flexible PCIe expansion
Two 2.5GbE RJ45 ports support 2.5G, 1G and 100M connections. Port trunking can provide transfer speeds of up to 5Gbps.
Two PCIe Gen 3 x4 slots support compatible network, storage, USB, wireless, Fibre Channel or graphics expansion cards.
- Optional 5GbE or 10GbE connectivity can be added through a compatible PCIe network adapter.
- Wake on LAN and Jumbo Frame support are included.
- Connectivity includes three Type-A USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports and one Type-C USB 3.2 Gen 1 port.
Virtualisation, containers and operating-system choice
The supplied product information supports hosting virtual machines and running containerised applications alongside storage services.
The TS-873A-8G supports QTS and can be switched to the ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system according to storage and data-protection requirements.
- GPU pass-through is supported with a compatible graphics card.
- Compatible entry-level NVIDIA graphics cards may be used for video processing or virtual-machine pass-through.
- Confirm compatibility for drives, memory, M.2 SSDs, expansion cards and other accessories before purchase.
Important purchasing and deployment notes
- This is a diskless NAS; compatible hard drives or solid state drives must be purchased separately.
- M.2 NVMe SSDs are not included, and the supplied information recommends fitting a heatsink.
- For two installed memory modules, use a matched pair of compatible DDR4 modules.
- Check exact compatibility for storage drives, memory and expansion cards before ordering.
