QNAP TS-433 – shared storage with 2.5GbE networking

The QNAP TS-433 suits homes and small offices that need central storage for shared files and backups. Four installed 4TB hard drives provide 16TB of total installed capacity, while 2.5GbE helps move files across a compatible network.

The essentials

Keep shared files and backups together

Use the NAS as a central place for documents, photos and other files. Backup functions include cloud and iSCSI LUN options, while snapshots let you record system states and restore an earlier one when needed.

The four drives are already installed, so you can choose from supported RAID configurations. RAID migration and expansion are supported. Your usable capacity depends on the RAID configuration you select.

Make more of a compatible network

The 2.5GbE port can support faster transfers when connected to compatible network equipment. A second Ethernet port supports Gigabit networking, giving you another connection option.

QNAP Turbo System runs the NAS, with an app centre for extending its functions. The system also supports container applications, media streaming and file synchronisation.

Manage storage with confidence

The TS-433 supports 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA HDDs and SSDs. Its hot-swap bays, drive roaming and RAID rebuild support help with drive management. A 12cm fan provides active cooling, and the tower chassis measures 160 × 219 × 169mm.

For security, it supports 256-bit AES, HTTPS, SSH, access control lists and snapshots. These tools help you manage access and protect stored files.

Check your setup before ordering

• Confirm your network equipment supports 2.5GbE if you want to use the faster port.
• Check that your intended RAID configuration suits your storage and protection needs.
• Confirm your computers use a supported Windows, macOS or Linux operating system.
