The Thunderbolt™ 3 Expansion Card enables high-speed data transfer to accelerate everyday tasks and applications. Video editing studios in particular can greatly benefit by being able to smoothly transfer, display and edit 4K videos in real-time. Streamlined Video Editing CollaborationBy using Thunderbolt™ 3 expansion cards, teamwork between Final Cut Pro® and Adobe Premiere Pro® users becomes faster and easier. With SMB protocol support, Final Cut Pro® users can create a library on a NAS volume and use it as if it were a local storage device. Every team member can centrally store video resources in the same NAS shared folder, greatly improving productivity for highly-collaborative projects in multi-workstation environments.Thunderbolt™ 3 Expansion Card Usage ScenariosDaisy-chain up to 6 QNAP Thunderbolt™ devicesA NAS with a Thunderbolt™ 3 expansion card can be daisy-chained with up to 6 QNAP Thunderbolt™ devices, including other QNAP Thunderbolt™ NAS and Thunderbolt 3 to 10GbE Adapter (QNA Series).Connect legacy devicesWhen used with an Apple Thunderbolt™ 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt™ 2 adapter* (sold by Apple), legacy Thunderbolt™ 2 MacBook can be connected to your Thunderbolt™ 3 NAS for sharing files and accessing centralized data.
The SAS HBA PCIe Expansion Card is designed for expanding the capacity of a QNAP NAS by connecting it to TL SAS JBOD storage enclosures and REXP expansion units. Multiple expansion units can be daisy-chained via high-speed mini SAS HD cables to expand the total disk capacity up to 4.6PB to meet growing data storage needs. SAS-based storage solutions can assist businesses in creating highly-reliable IT environments for virtualization, surveillance, Big Data, video editing and TV broadcast storage.Use high-performance and high-availability SAS drivesCompared with SATA, SAS enables low-latency, power-efficient, and IOPS-optimized storage capabilities. Each SAS port combines four 12Gb/s SAS channels, delivering up to 48Gb/s per host connection.Expand your total disk capacity up to 4.6PBA NAS with a SAS expansion card can be daisy-chained with up to 16 devices, including TL SAS JBOD storage enclosures and REXP expansion units. This provides to potential to store up to 4.6PB (calculated using 18TB drives in sixteen 16-bay enclosures).Attain faster backup and uninterrupted services with flexible port configurationSAS expansion cards can be flexibly configured to fit various usage applications. By managing multipath or link aggregation with NAS to expansion units, data transfer loads are effectively balanced, and you can avoid interrupting system services and prevent backup failures.
