Note:
1. The third drive bay of the TS-364 supports SSD caching. 2.5-inch drive tray bases can be purchased from the .
2. M.2 SSDs are sold separately. As M.2 SSD operations can easily generate excessive heat, it is recommended to install a heatsink on M.2 SSDs.
As SSD prices continue to become more affordable for home and small business users, there's never been a better time for using SSDs in your NAS! With high speed and ultra-low latency, SSDs make everyday NAS use faster, more responsive, and enable faster backup, smoother multimedia, and optimized virtualization. QTS takes SSD functionality even further by supporting software-defined SSD RAID extra over-provisioning (OP), enabling you to allocate additional OP space (up to 60%) to optimize SSD random write speeds and lifespan. By using SSD OP, even affordable consumer-grade SSDs can attain performance and endurance levels similar to enterprise-grade SSDs.
