In the era of big data, there is a wealth of data generated and exchanged by the billion of devices on the Internet of Everything (IoE) and across hybrid cloud devices. The rampant data growth requires increasingly flexible storage solutions that will ensure business continuity. QNAP has strived to provide enterprises and SMBs with the facilities and tools to attain storage services to meet the evergrowing capacity demand and results in reduced overall operation risks and costs.

Besides managing data growth, another major challenge for an organization is its ability to keep existing data available and protected in the event of a disaster or system failure. QNAP's flexible storage solutions incorporate features such as tiered storage, snapshots, thin provisioning, and LUN backup to better match specific business requirements and cope with disastrous situations.

The QNAP 12Gbps SAS is more reliable and has better storage I/O performance than the 6G model. Furthermore, it is backward compatible with 6Gbps SAS HDDs. Our 12Gbps JBOD Expansion enclosures not only strengthen the organization's disaster recovery system but also satisfy the growing need to expand storage capacity at different stages as organizations seek to adapt to more demanding business environments.

QNAP NAS has demonstrated its ability to offer a complete product portfolio that fits for every SMB and small to medium enterprise, including a wide range of hard disk models and iSCSI SAN solutions.
