Flexible storage scalability for Turbo NAS. Simple & reliable.
The QNAP REXP-1200U-RP expansion enclosure is designed for expanding the storage space on the Turbo NAS and can support maximum 768TB raw capacity* by connecting multiple expansion enclosures via high-speed mini SAS cables. This is especially useful for large data applications, such as video surveillance, data archiving, and TV broadcast storage.
Plug and use, seamless capacity expansion
Simply connect a REXP-1200U-RP to a Turbo NAS* and power it on. The Turbo NAS will detect the hard drives in the REXP-1200U-RP as newly installed local drives. The Turbo NAS capacity can be expanded seamlessly by using the powerful QTS Storage Manager.
*QTS.4 or newer is required for the Turbo NAS.
Missing mode protection
When the disconnection of a RAID expansion enclosure is detected, the Turbo NAS blocks IO access to protect data. The system can recover from the missing mode to the normal state with data staying intact.
High density, high efficiency and highly scalable
The REXP-1200U-RP supports 12 hard drives and 72TB raw capacity in 2U rack space. The REXP-1200U-RP has two SAS wide ports (IN port and OUT port) for host connectivity and daisy-chain respectively. Each SAS wide port combines four SAS channels(maximum 8 SAS channels supported per expansion enclosure). The solution delivers unprecedented performance of up to 24Gbps per host connection.
Powerful QTS Storage Manager
QTS Storage Manager neatly presents tools and options for managing system storage with an intuitive graphical interface, which simplifies the process of NAS capacity expansion and REXP-1200U-RP management. IT administrators can easily monitor the health status of REXP-1200U-RP and disks in it. When cascading multiple expansion enclosures in a rack, the Locate Disk and Locate Enclosure functions assist IT administrators for quick maintenance.
An excellent backup solution for the Turbo NAS
In addition to expanding an existing volume, IT administrator can use the REXP-1200U-RP as a budget-friendly external storage to perform speedy and secure backup tasks for the Turbo NAS. QNAP RTRR (Real-Time Remote Replication) or rsync service lets IT administrator back up the Turbo NAS data to the REXP-1200U-RP on a real time or scheduled basis.
Flexible drive type and capacity
The REXP-1200U-RP offers high flexibility in hard drive selection. IT administrators can choose enterprise-level SAS hard drives with high performance and high reliability for mission critical application, low-cost but high-capacity SATA hard drives for large data archiving, or high-speed and high stability SSD for I/O intensive operations. Just make the best use of each drive.
