QNAP TL-R1220Sep-RP External HDD/SSD Enclosure Black, Gray 2.5/3.5" [TL-R1220SEP-RP]

The TL-R1220Sep-RP SAS 12Gb/s expansion unit is designed to expand the storage space of your QTS or QuTS hero NAS. Up to sixteen expansion enclosures can be daisy-chained using high-speed mini SAS HD cables to support 3.4PB raw capacity, ideal for virtualization application storage/backup, surveillance recording, large data or multimedia content. Featuring Broadcom® SAS DataBolt™ bandwidth optimization technology, the TL-R1220Sep-RP consolidates 6Gb/s infrastructure into 12Gb/s. With four mini SAS HD SFF-8644 Wide ports, the TL-R1220Sep-RP offers transfer speeds of up to 192Gbps when connected to a single host. When connected to a QTS/QuTS hero NAS that supports multi-path addressing, the TL-R1220Sep-RP can achieve smooth data transmission and continuous system operations.

Reach 96Gb/s with link aggregation
The TL-R1220Sep-RP is powered by a low-power 28nm SAS35x28R SAS extender and supports 12/6Gb/s SAS/SATA drives. It also has four 12 Gb/s SAS 3.0 (4 lane) SFF-8644 SAS Wide ports. By connecting the TL-R1220Sep-RP to the host NAS and serially connecting multiple JBODs with two wide ports configured with link aggregation, the solution offers transfer speeds of up to 96Gb/s.

Supports SAS DataBolt™ technology, delivers 12Gb/s speeds using existing 6Gb/s infrastructure
Featuring Broadcom® SAS DataBolt™ bandwidth optimization technology, the TL-R1220Sep-RP provides an intelligent data buffer to transfer data to drives at speeds that match the performance of the host NAS. Whether the TL-R1220Sep-RP uses 12Gb/s or 6Gb/s drives, the host NAS transfers data to the TL-R1220Sep-RP at 12Gb/s, so you can take advantage of high-speed 12Gb/s SAS transmission with existing 6Gb/s infrastructure.

Connect up to 16 JBODs, supports raw capacity up to 3.4PB
The TL-R1220Sep-RP has four 12 Gb/s SAS 3.0 (4 lane) SFF-8644 SAS Wide ports. Up to sixteen TL-R1220Sep-RPs can be connected in series to achieve up to 3.4PB raw capacity.

Multi-path addressing to ensure continuous system operations
By daisy-chaining the TL-R1220Sep-RP, you can balance data transfer loads with multi-path addressing for high availability. If one route fails, another broadcast route can be used to access the data and ensure continued system operation. To ensure system uptime, the TL-R1220Sep-RP offers redundant power.

Flexible series connection
By daisy-chaining your NAS to multiple TL SAS JBODs and REXP SAS JBODs, you can take advantage of multi-path addressing and link aggregation for high transfer speeds and increased system availability.

Storage management
Using Storage and Snapshot Manager on the host NAS, you can configure and manage the TL-R1220Sep-RP's storage space by setting up RAID groups, storage pools, and snapshots, or by configuring the JBOD as the host NAS storage volume, allowing NAS storage expansion to save large amounts of data or backup files. You can also configure and manage the TL-R1220Sep-RP via the Console Port.

Speed ​​up remote file transfers with JBOD migration
Moving many small files or large data over the network can be a time-consuming process that can negatively impact network performance. By setting the RAID configuration, you can use the TL-R1220Sep-RP to move files to another computer or NAS. Simply save the files to the TL-R1220Sep-RP, connect it to the target device and copy the files.
