QNAP TS-h987XU-RP

The TS-h987XU-RP is powered by the next-gen Intel® Xeon® E-2344 quad-core processor, supports up to 128 GB DDR4 ECC memory, and provides an HDD/SSD hybrid storage architecture that balances performance and cost to deliver reliable server-grade performance. Running the ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system, the TS-h987XU-RP emphasizes data integrity with inline data deduplication, near-limitless snapshots, real-time SnapSync, and QSAL (QNAP SSD Antiwear Leveling) – providing an ideal storage solution that meets today's business requirements for file servers, virtualization servers, VDI, and backup/restore.

Powerful Intel® Xeon® E processor and up to 128 GB DDR4 ECC memory
Designed for heavy business workloads, the TS-h987XU-RP has extreme processing power to drive virtual machine performance. Supporting up to 128 GB DDR4 ECC memory to fuel multitasking demands, the TS-h987XU-RP delivers cost-efficient and reliable server-grade performance to meet increasing business IT demands.

Hybrid storage architecture with U.2 NVMe PCIe Gen 4 – faster speed, optimal I/O, and lower latency
Compared with traditional storage arrays, the 1U rackmount TS-h987XU-RP hybrid storage balances cost, performance, and capacity. Featuring four 3.5-inch SATA 6Gb/s bays for hard drives, and five 2.5-inch U.2 NVMe PCIe / SATA 6Gbps SSD slots (Slot 1~3: PCIe Gen 3 x2, Slot 4~5 PCIe Gen 4 x4), the TS-h987XU-RP supports SSD caching to improve IOPS-intensive workloads for accessing vital data.

Hybrid Backup Sync multiple backups ensure your data protection
Rest assured your data is safe with the 3-2-1 backup rule and a reliable disaster recovery plan. Backups stored in the QNAP NAS can be further backed up to another QNAP NAS, remote server, or cloud storage, and restored quickly whenever needed.

Data Reduction
Too much data, not enough time for backup? QuDedup technology empowers backup tasks with source-based deduplication to optimize file sizes for greater time and storage savings. Backup/recovery becomes much faster!

Versioning
The more versions you back up reduces the risk of data loss. QuDedup is especially useful for accelerating multi-version backups to provide greater protection against data loss.
Encryption

Files can be encrypted/compressed before they are backed up or synced. This effectively prevents unauthorized access and provides an extra layer of protection for business data.

Intelligent Network
Automatically selects the best physical network ports for your task, supports auto-failover to ensure continuous services, and automatically switches back once the best network port reconnects.

Process Automation
Set the backup process on each NAS, then multiple NAS can automatically complete all job flows. Whether migrating big data or backing up to multiple destinations, IT staff can ease their workloads with a one-time setting.

10GbE & 2.5GbE-ready. Fast for bandwidth-demanding tasks.
The TS-h987XU-RP provides two 2.5GbE RJ45 ports (backwards compatible with 1G/100M) and dual-port 10GBASE-T connectivity. Port Trunking and failover support further increases bandwidth and reliability for vital applications including virtualization, large file transfers, high-speed backup/restoration, and real-time applications. QNAP also offers numerous options of managed and unmanaged 10GbE/2.5GbE switches, assisting organizations in implementing high-speed, secure and scalable network environments without going over budget.

Flexible PCIe Gen 4 expansion
The TS-h987XU-RP is equipped with a PCIe Gen 4 slot. With twice the I/O performance of PCIe Gen 3, the TS-h987XU-RP can take advantage of PCIe cards to expand application potential.

ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system enhances NAS performance and data integrity
QuTS hero combines the app-based QTS with the 128-bit ZFS file system to provide flexible storage management, comprehensive data protection, and optimized performance to tackle the complexity and performance demands of modern IT. From storage management, virtualization, to collaborative media workflows, QuTS hero streamlines your business-critical tasks.

Data integrity is key
QuTS hero's self-healing ensures data integrity and reliability. Write Once, Read Many (WORM) is also supported.

Data reduction improves storage efficiency and performance
Inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction reduce file sizes to conserve storage capacity and optimize performance.

Multi-level cache technology
Main memory read cache (L1 ARC), SSD second-level read cache (L2 ARC), and ZFS Intent Log (ZIL) for synchronous transactions with power failure protection are supported to boost performance and security.

RAID Z enables robust data protection
Multiple RAID levels allow flexible capacity utilization. RAID Triple Parity and Triple Mirror deliver higher levels of data protection.

QSAL (QNAP SSD Antiwear Leveling) enhances data protection
RAID-level SSD lifespan is automatically and regularly detected to prevent simultaneous SSD failure, improving your data protection and system reliability.

App Center ecosystem extends NAS functionality
Apps for backup/sync, virtual machines/containers, content management, productivity, and more features can be used to expand the application potential of the NAS.

Inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction improve SSD endurance
QuTS hero supports advanced block-based data reduction technologies (including inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction) to reduce file sizes, conserve storage capacity, and optimize performance. For example, if 20 virtual machines on a NAS are replicated using the same template, then storage space requirements for all 20 virtual machines can be reduced by u
