9-bay Ryzen rackmount NAS
QNAP TS-h977XU-RP-3700X-32G
A 9-bay diskless rackmount NAS supplied with an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-core processor, 32GB DDR4, two 10GbE SFP+ ports, two 10GBASE-T ports and two Gigabit Ethernet ports. Its title and table conflict on chassis height.
Ryzen-powered hybrid rackmount storage with four 10GbE ports
The QNAP TS-h977XU-RP-3700X-32G combines four 3.5-inch and five 2.5-inch SATA bays with an 8-core AMD Ryzen processor and 32GB DDR4 memory. The supplied content positions it for file serving, virtualisation, VDI, collaborative video editing, backup and recovery. Its title says 2U while the specification table says 1U, so the chassis height must be confirmed.
