Dual-controller, short-depth 16-bay SAS 12Gbps JBOD
Supports Broadcom® SAS DataBolt™
Supports QNAP dual-controllrt NAS, Windows® PC/Server
Featuring dual controllers, an OLED indicator, and a short-depth rackmount design, the 3U 16-bay TL-R1620Sdc SAS 12Gb/s storage expansion enclosure is ideal for expanding the storage capacity of dual-controller QNAP NAS. Both controllers have three Mini-SAS HD (SFF-8644) ports, supporting 12Gbps SAS and Broadcom® SAS DataBolt™ bandwidth optimization technology. The dual path mini-SAS design sustains continuous operations even if an external JBOD cable is disconnected. Up to 7 TL-R1620Sdc units can be daisy-chained via high-speed Mini-SAS HD cables, providing scalability and high reliability for mission-critical storage of file servers, virtualization, surveillance, medium-sized data center, multimedia, and more.
Non-Server versions of Windows have a 63TB limit for a single volume. Thus, when connecting QNAP storage expansion products, the same limitation applies. For volumes larger than 63TB, it is recommended to use the Windows Server operating system.
-
Storage expansion for dual-controller NAS
Flexibly and economically expand the storage space of a dual-controller QNAP NAS for petabyte-level storage capacity.
-
Dual path design
Dual path mini-SAS design with a redundant power supply for enhanced system reliability.
-
Missing mode protection
QNAP dual-controller NAS can detect JBOD connections, and enter missing mode protection to prevent data corruption.
-
DataBolt™ bandwidth optimization
DataBolt™ bandwidth optimization combines two 6Gb/s connections into one 12Gb/s data stream to achieve faster speed with existing 6Gb/s infrastructure.
-
Flexible storage management
Manage the storage space and settings of the connected TL-R1620Sdc with Storage Manager on the host NAS.
-
Short depth design
The space-efficient short depth design makes it easy to install in small media cabinets or places with a lot of cabling. (Short rail kit RAIL-S01 requires optional purchase.)
