QNAP TS-673A-8G - 8-bay Network Attached Storage, Black

The QNAP TS-673A-8G is an 8-bay tower NAS designed for data storage and sharing in small to medium-sized businesses. It is powered by an AMD Ryzen Embedded V1500B quad-core processor clocked at 2.2 GHz. The system comes with 8 GB of DDR4 RAM, which can be expanded to 64 GB via two SO-DIMM slots. Eight hot-swappable drive bays accommodate 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch SATA HDDs and SSDs. Integrated M.2 2280 slots support high-speed cache acceleration or additional storage volumes. Dual 2.5GbE RJ45 ports provide network connectivity, reaching speeds of up to 5000 Mbit/s via link aggregation.

The cooling system consists of three fans—one 92 mm and two 60 mm units—resulting in a measured noise level of 20.3 dB. For data integrity, the device supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, and 50 configurations. A built-in 250 W power supply powers the internal components. Management is handled via QNAP Turbo System 5.0.0, which provides web-based administration for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Snapshot technology and backup tools are included to protect data against accidental loss. A Kensington lock slot on the chassis provides physical security.
