QTS 5.2
Faster, safer, and more efficient.

QTS 5.2 introduces the Security Center that actively monitors file activities to counteract encryption ransomware threats. The enhanced system security and support for TCG-Ruby self-encrypting drives (SED) strengthens data protection. You can further leverage full system backup for Windows® PCs/servers to guarantee the preservation and safety of your data.

SMB Transmission

Faster access speed, better system performance.

Kernel Mode SMB Daemon acceleration technology

In high-speed SMB transmission environments, QTS 5.2 can utilize the CPU's Kernel Mode to accelerate transfers while maintaining the necessary User Mode for other SMB functions. In Kernel Mode, the operating system can efficiently apply and coordinate hardware resources.

By utilizing Kernel Mode SMB Daemon, you can further enhance SMB transmission performance, especially in all-flash storage architectures where performance gains are more significant.

System & Data Security

Exponentially strengthen data safety with proactive defenses and security updates.

Security Center safeguards against ransomware threats

Security Center employs proactive data security measures to continuously monitor file activities. Upon detecting significant changes in file activities on the NAS, the system promptly takes protective actions (protection/backup/interruption) to minimize the risks and damages associated with threats such as ransomware, attacks, or data loss due to human factors.

Supports SED with new TCG-Ruby standard

In addition to TCG-OPAL and TCG-Enterprise protocols, QTS 5.2 introduces support for TCG-Ruby Self Encrypting Drives (SED). TCG-Ruby provides specifications for NVMe and other modern storage technologies, aligning more closely with current enterprise and data center requirements, and facilitating compliance with regulatory standards (such as GDPR, HIPAA, and HITECH). SED utilizes a built-in encryption processor to encrypt data for the entire drive, adding an extra layer of protection for information security.

Supports SED with new TCG-Ruby standard
  • Supports OpenSSL LTS 3.0.9

    Long-term support version. Ensures the security of network communication.

  • Supports IEEE 802.1X

    Enables the NAS to access the network through 802.1X authentication in a secure environment.

  • Implements AppArmor

    Enhances system security to mitigate security threats from both internal and external sources.

  • Supports HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)

    Forces browsers to use HTTPS connections, reducing the risk of connection hijacking.

Management Efficiency

Optimize the steps and processes for operation, configuration, and management –more convenient and efficient.

Backup/restore NAS system configuration with greater flexibility

If you need to transfer the system settings of an existing NAS to another NAS, or if you have multiple NAS units that require the same system settings, you can perform system configuration backup and restoration in the QTS Console.

  • BEFORE

    Back up system configuration:

    A BIN file is generated and downloaded to your computer. The actual backup details are kept undisclosed.

    Restore system configuration:
    • Restore using the BIN file.
    • The destination NAS must be the same model and have the same QTS version as the backup NAS.
  • NOW

    Back up system configuration:
    • Backup content details, including system, network, and privilege settings, are provided.
    • You can encrypt the backup file.
    Restore system configuration:
    • Perform selective restoration for specific items (such as permission settings, network configuration, and more).
    • The destination NAS can be a different model and have different QTS version than the backup NAS*.

More convenient AD domain login

By joining your QNAP NAS to the domain service, domain users can log in to the NAS using their domain accounts. QTS 5.2 supports automatic matching of AD domain user accounts, eliminating the need to input the AD domain name again. Simply log in using a domain account to access the NAS.

Data Backup

Protect your data with comprehensive backup and flexible restoration.

Windows® PC/Servers full system backup

Install the NetBak PC Agent utility on Windows® systems to perform full system, disk, folder, and file backups to the QNAP NAS, and restore data whenever needed. Global deduplication and synthetic incremental backup technologies significantly reduce backup/recovery time. Learn more >
