Key Features and Benefits of QTS 4.3.5:
Storage - Take full advantage of SSDs, streamline storage management and data recovery [Watch the presentation video]
- Software-defined SSD over-provisioning: Users can allocate additional space for SSD over-utilization (from 1% to 60%) to optimize SSD random write speeds and lifespan. With the unique SSD profiling tool, you can evaluate the best over-pro ratiovisioning based on users' target IOPS performance.
- Restoring from remotely stored images: Snapshot recovery from a remote snapshot replica can now be directly written to the local NAS over the network without manually restoring all folders and files to the backup destination, then they can be copied back to the local NAS. This saves time and effort through more efficient procedures.
- Flexible volume configuration and conversion: Volumes can now be converted between static and dynamic, ensuring maxMaximum flexibility in storage allocation. Volume sizes can also be scaled down, so the NAS can adapt to changing storage allocation needs.
- Increasing VJBOD performance with iSER: The company's patented Virtual JBOD (VJBOD) technology QNAP is now enhanced with support for iSCSI Extensions for RDMA (iSER) technology from Mellanox network cards, increasing transfer speeds and enabling more efficient storage expansion.
Network – Accelerate workflows with high-speedoneactivity and flexibility [Watch the presentation video]
- Software Network and Virtual Switch: This application is enhanced and brings many new features including network topology, device diagram to identify physical ports, a number of customizable DDNS settings, NCSI service, static route, software defined switch mode, complete IPv6 features and IP addresses reserved for DHCPv4, it greatly streamlines and improves performance at the heart of the user experience. UI improvements for Thunderbolt™ and wireless networks make their statuses clearer and settings more convenient.
- Improved support for SmartNIC: QTS now supports powerful features that are built into advanced Network Interface Controllers (NICs) such as Mellanox ConnectX-4 for iSCSI Extensions for RDMA (iSER).
- QBelt, a virtual private network (VPN) protocol: QBelt, the company's proprietary VPN protocol QNAP, added to QVPN Services, increases network security by encrypting traffic and reducing the likelihood of detection. QBelt can also be used to access geo-blocked web content and/or corporate intranet resources and bypass restrictions.
Other new features:
Notification Center - you will never miss a system notification again
- The new Notification Center consolidates system logs and notifications for all NAS applications into a single application with flexible policy settings, facilitating smooth and easy NAS management. There are also other notification methods such as email, SMS, instant messaging and push notifications.
