Easily replace defective QNAP with a new model.

Easy configuration
Old HDDs are easily transferred to new NAS
no HDMI

I purchased the TS-233 to replace a defective TS-251. The old drives were mounted in the new NAS. The TS-233 starts quickly and can be found on the internal network via the QFinder Pro tool. Then a firmware update was suggested. After the firmware update, the drives are automatically prepared for use in the new NAS. This process takes quite some time (about 4 hours in my case). Afterwards, the new NAS and all folders will be available again as before.

perfect NAS

very many additional options to install
very simple to install.
small and powerful
if you install too many things from apps it can get stuck.

bought this as a 4th nas option to work with it from the outside, so when I'm not at home, and the many apps for your smartphone are very handy, you can also work with it on the move without worries via the laptop. highly recommended.

Perfect NAS for home network.

Easy to set up as an Audio Server
In combination with an SSD drive, it's quite fast
Sufficient working memory
Software installation could be clearer.

Nicely compact NAS that can easily be set up as an audio server at home. Especially with the SSD drives very quiet, a real day and night difference with HD drives. RAM is really fine, but don't install all the apps that are available. Basic apps, Music server, Photo backup, extra security apps installed and my working memory is at about 40%. This makes it quite fast for home use, and the indexing of photo and cover art for audio also loads very quickly. Installation software could be clearer for a novice NAS user, but it is certainly easy and quick to do.
