QNAP TVS-H1277AX-R5-16G Overview

The TVS-H1277AX 12-Bay NAS Enclosure from QNAP combines ZFS data integrity with Qtier storage tiering technology, redefining performance standards for professional video collaboration and enterprise virtualization. Its 8 x 3.5"/2.5" SATA III drive bays and four 2.5" U.2 NVMe PCIe 4.0 x4 bays handle massive storage volumes and ultra-fast data access, while a 3.8 GHz AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 7645 6-Core processor with Zen 4 architecture, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and the ZFS file system handles heavy workloads, including multiple virtual machines (VMs), containers, and high-resolution video transcoding.

The TVS-h1277AX has two 10GbE ports and two 2.5GbE ports for fast data connections. Peripherals and external storage drives may be added using two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports, two USB-A 2.0 ports, and one HDMI 1.4b port that supports resolutions up to 4096 x 2160 at 30 Hz. Expansions, including 10/25GbE network cards, QM2 cards, SAS/PCIe/SATA storage cards, graphics cards, and more may be added using one PCIe 4.0 x8 and two PCIe 4.0 x4 slots. Also supported are RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60, Triple Mirror, Triple Parity, and JBOD, read speeds of up to 12,172 MB/s and write speeds of up to 11,106 MB/s via 5 x 25GbE and U.2 NVMe SSDs, AES-NI volume encryption, and more. Available operating systems include QTS or QuTS hero.

AMD Ryzen 7000 & DDR5: Driving Multitasking Limits
Adopting the latest Zen 4 architecture, the TVS-h1277AX provides a significant IPC uplift. Combined with DDR5 memory (expandable up to 192 GB), it effortlessly handles heavy workloads, including multiple virtual machines (VMs), containers, and high-resolution video transcoding.
Fuse U.2 NVMe Speed with HDD Capacity - Qtier is Coming.
Maximize your storage efficiency without compromise. The TVS-h1277AX features hybrid bays that support both U.2 NVMe SSDs and traditional HDDs, allowing you to combine the speed of NVMe with the capacity of hard drives.
Powerful AMD Ryzen PRO 7000 Series Processor with 6 Cores
The TVS-h1277AX is powered by a 3.8 GHz AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 7645 6-Core processor (Zen 4 architecture), delivering exceptional multitasking performance and energy efficiency. Combined with 64GB DDR5 memory and 3 x 25GbE SmartNIC, it achieves outstanding sequential throughput and random IOPS for demanding enterprise workloads.
Transfer Speeds with U.2 NVMe SSDs
5 x 25GbE SMB Sequential Throughput (1M)
Read speeds up to 12,172 MB/s and write speeds up to 11,106 MB/s.

5 x 25GbE iSCSI Random IOPS (4K)
Read speeds up to 1,253,234 IOPS and write speeds up to 791,094 IOPS.
Qtier for QuTS hero
Maximize storage efficiency. Move active data to high-performance SSDs and cold data to high-capacity HDDs.
NFS over RDMA | Unleash the True Potential of 25GbE
Eliminate CPU bottlenecks. NFS over RDMA transfers data directly between memory, delivering local NVMe-like responsiveness to your workstation.
PCIe Gen 4 Expandability for Future-Proof Upgrades
The TVS-h1277AX is equipped with three PCIe Gen 4 slots, enabling you to install 25GbE network cards or dedicated NVIDIA RTX GPU cards for AI inference and virtual machine GPU passthrough.

Slot 1: PCIe Gen 4 x4
Slot 2: PCIe Gen 4 x8 (or x4)
Slot 3: PCIe Gen 4 x4

Note: Slot 2 provides PCIe Gen 4 x8 width when Slot 1 is not in use.
Run VMs and Containers
With no additional fees, you can run multiple VMs of different OS on TVS-h1277AX. This allows you to deploy multi-tenant environments and applications to increase management efficiency and save hardware costs.

VMs
Securely run Windows, Linux, UNIX, QuTScloud VMs using Virtualization Station Simply plug in a keyboard, mouse, and HDMI display to use the VM like a normal PC.

Containers
Run Docker, LXD, Kata Containers and download Container Apps using Container Station.

VM High Availability
VM Live Migration and HA (High Availability) guarantee continuous operation and minimal downtime.

Network & Virtual Switch
Flexibly allocate virtual network resources and configure VLANs to ensure virtual services via the virtual network topology in Network & Virtual Switch.
High Availability (HA) and Failover with Dual-NAS Architecture
Avoid unplanned downtime and data loss. Create an HA cluster with two TVS-h1277AX units - one as the active server, and the other as the passive server. If an unexpected failure or issue with the active server occurs, the passive server provides immediate protection with automatic failover. This ensures continuous storage service and system availability.

Note: High Availability (HA) will be supported starting with QuTS hero h6.

Easy Management and Monitoring
Use the High Availability Manager app to easily configure, remove, or rebuild clusters.

Guaranteed Data Consistency
Real-time data sync between active and passive servers minimizes the risk of data loss (RPO).

Ensured Continuity of Critical Business
The passive server takes over within 1 minute if the active server fails (RTO < 60 secs).
