M.2 SATA 6 Gb/s SSD and 2.5" SSD Cache
• The TVS-882 features two M.2 slots designed for caching to increase IOPS performance, transfer speed, and reliability. SSD cache boosts overall system performance and is suitable for improving overall workflow of random IOPS demanding applications such as virtualization. The TVS-882 combines M.2 SSD, 2.5" SSD, and 3.5" HDD in one box to effectively realize tiered storage for increasing application performance and lower TCO of storage at the same time.

Tiered Storage
• QNAP's Qtier Technology empowers the TVS-882 with Auto Tiering that continuously optimizes the storage pool utilizing PCIe NVMe SSDs, M.2 SSDs, 2.5" SSDs, and SATA-based drives. With Auto Tiering, the TVS-882 automatically moves frequently-used "hot" data to high-performance storage tiers and less-accessed "cold" data to lower-cost, higher-capacity drives. Businesses will no longer have to invest in expensive flash technology, but still enjoy improved application performance and cost efficiency from Auto Tiering.

Application-Based Partitioning
• Every application requires different performance such as Surveillance Station that requires higher-priority access to storage to ensure the integrity of recordings, while normal transmission speeds are sufficient for file sharing. However, when multiple applications are running on the same storage media, the required throughput level cannot be guaranteed as the storage media is busy handling I/O requests from all of them. The TVS-882 supports three different types of storage media: M.2, SSD, and SATA hard drive, and they can be configured as independent partitions for different applications, ensuring a sufficient throughput level for every application.

Network Traffic Distribution
• With four Gigabit Ethernet ports, the TVS-882 allows applications to use dedicated interfaces to meet network traffic distribution requirements. Network interfaces can be managed with the Network & Virtual Switch app, which enables optimized network resources for the TVS-882, virtual machines, and containerized apps.

HDMI 2.0
• The TVS-882 features three HDMI ports, including one HDMI 2.0 port for smoothly playing Ultra HD 4K (4096 x 2304) videos. You can connect the TVS-882 to a TV or A/V receiver and use a Kodi media player and a QNAP remote control to enjoy rich media content and 4K 60 fps videos. Featuring Intel HD Graphics, the TVS-882 delivers real-time 4K (H.264) and 1080p video transcoding, which converts videos to universal formats that can be smoothly played on PCs, mobile devices, and Smart TVs.

Three HDMI Outputs
• The TVS-882 comes with three HDMI outputs that can support three monitors in either "duplicated" or "extended" desktop configuration. Duplicating will display the same content on every display, and extended desktop mode allows users to display applications across the displays for improved multitasking convenience and productivity. When displaying content using HDMI, you can use the TVS-882 as a multimedia player by using HD Station. Alternatively, you can choose to output the Linux operating system desktop to use the TVS-882 as a PC.

Capacity Expansion
• The TVS-882 supports online capacity expansion by connecting multiple high-performance SAS-enabled QNAP RAID expansion enclosures or economical USB 3.0 expansion units to meet the needs of growing business data. The total storage capacity of the TVS-882 can be gradually expanded and easily managed by the QTS Storage Manager, being useful for large data applications such as video surveillance, data archiving, TV broadcast storage, and more.

Virtual JBOD
• QNAP VJBOD (Virtual JBOD) is network-based JBOD, allowing you to expand storage of your QNAP NAS with multiple QNAP NAS units. You can mount iSCSI LUNs from a QNAP NAS to the TVS-882 as local disks and create virtual storage pools and volumes for operating NAS functionalities such as creating and reverting snapshots and indexing multimedia files into the media library. With VJBOD, you can centrally utilize the storage space from multiple QNAP NAS units and manage it with the interface on the local NAS. VJBOD supports 10GbE/40GbE Ethernet connection interfaces and port trunking (link aggregation with multiple LAN ports) that increases the performance and reliability of your VJBOD storage.

QTS
• The intuitive QTS features a modern flat design to streamline loading times. It provides an intelligent desktop that allows you to find desired functions quickly, monitor important system information on a real-time basis, and open multiple application windows to run multiple tasks concurrently, bringing operating efficiency.

Supporting IPMI 1.5 and 2.0, QRM+ provides remote KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) for certain IPMI devices and supports tracking every action using KVM recording and playback. With centralized management by QRM+, IT infrastructure and device security are enhanced while troubleshooting & network resource performance analysis is simplified.

QmailAgent
• QmailAgent is an online email client that helps you manage multiple email accounts, allowing you to access all of your emails and to easily switch between different accounts. It provides complete functionality for composing, reading, and organizing emails. You can even attach files, photos, and documents from the TVS-882 when composing emails.
