QNAP Announces 4-Bay 1U Short-Depth Rackmount NAS TS-433eU

QNAP Systems, Inc., a leading computing and storage solutions innovator, today unveiled the compact 1U rackmount 4-bay NAS TS-433eU, which offers small to midsize businesses and organizations an affordable edge storage and backup solution. With a sleek 1U design and a depth only of 11.51 inches (292.3 mm), the TS-433eU easily fits into space-constrained environments. "The TS-433eU offers more than just reliable backup and restore capabilities. Its NPU-empowered processor, 2.5GbE connectivity, and USB storage expansion work together seamlessly in AI-powered photo management, Docker container applications, and surveillance system deployment, meeting diverse business needs" said Jerry Deng, Product Manager at QNAP.

The TS-433eU features four 3.5-inch SATA 6 Gb/s drive bays, fulfilling business demands in storage, file sharing, synchronization, and data protection for boosted daily work productivity. It also supports efficient backup from various sources, including PCs, servers, Google Workspace, and Microsoft 365. Users can also enable remote backup to another NAS or the immutable myQNAPcloud Storage. Snapshots offers comprehensive data protection and recovery, safeguarding against ransomware threats. Additionally, users can run Docker containers on the TS-433eU to deploy various microservices, or create a video surveillance system to safeguard working environments.
Key Features of TS-433eU
  • Optimized space utilization: The 1U short depth of just 11.5 inches (292.3 mm) makes it easy to fit in a small cabinet or wall-mounted network rack. It is ideal for space-limited environments including offices, factories, IT rooms, or surveillance rooms.
  • Powerful yet energy-efficient: Equipped with an energy-saving Arm 64-bit Cortex-A55 quad-core 2.0 GHz processor and 4 GB built-in memory (non-expandable), the TS-433eU delivers stable system operation, and efficient multitasking. It consumes up to 80% less power than typical x86-based NAS models.
  • Built-in NPU for AI acceleration: A built-in NPU accelerates AI-powered face recognition and subject identification in QNAP's QuMagie smart album, while reducing CPU workloads.
  • AES hardware encryption: With AES hardware-accelerated encryption, the processor enhances encryption performance, which secures critical NAS data while maintaining high system performance.
  • 2.5GbE as standard: Two 2.5GbE RJ45 ports help facilitate high-speed data transfer, large file access, and backup/restore. By enabling SMB Multichannel or Port Trunking, users can achieve fault-tolerant connections or increased data transfer speeds.
  • Flexible USB storage expansion: Two USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) Type-A ports. Users can connect one QNAP short-depth USB JBOD TR-004U to increase the total capacity up to 144 TB (using 24 TB HDDs with RAID 5 configuration).

IME, 99% of the time you need a short-depth rack, it's because it's a comms rack for patches and switches, with no rear posts to secure the other end of rack rails to. If there's room for rails to slide out a short-depth server, then there's definitely room for a four-post rack frame in the first place.

This thing looks to be a rail-only design with a single bolt at the front, making it useless and incompatible with the overwhelming majority of short-depth, two post rack cabinets (or just rack frames, more often than not).

This thing looks perfectly suited for top of the stack/frame but guess it depends on the size and mess of your Lain room.
I usually default to Norco and Rosewill chassis which are two bolt per side for each 2U, so I'm cool with this one being a one off.
The only thing I don't like about it is 4GB ram. I'm willing to work with 2.5GbE non-SFP and 2GHz ceiling but low memory kills it.

If this thing barely has the memory to view a Twitch channel at 480p, it doesn't meet the minimum to run containers.
Meaning it can't do the job let alone be expected to run multiple containers, web sites, SQL, net shares, iSCSI, etc.
I will ignore this one like it doesn't exist. The packaging is a good idea quickly ruined by a tone deaf loadout. Disgusting.
