U8-450

The U8-450 is powered by an Intel Atom C3558R quad-core processor, with main frequency of up to 2.4GHz. It is also equipped with a 8GB DDR4 dual-channel memory (expandable up to 32GB); dual SFP+ 10GB fiber interfaces; and dual 2.5GbE ports, providing up to 20Gb transmission bandwidth through Link Aggregation. In addition, the transmission performance of the U8-450 has been doubled by the installation of dual M.2 NVMe SSD slots in combination with TerraMaster Hyper Cache SSD cache acceleration technology. The U8-450 has been specifically developed for users who require high-speed storage, which can meet the stringent demands of 4K image editing, virtualization, databases, and other applications with high storage performance requirements.

By building a 10-gigabit network, multiple Windows/Mac workstations can connect to U8-450 simultaneously for easier collaborative operations of online editing of multi-track 4K material, special effects, video composition, and shot clip import and output, which greatly improves the work efficiency and significantly reduces the production time.

U8-450 runs the new operating system TOS 5, which adds more than 50 new functions and 600 improvements compared with the previous generation. The new features meet more business requirements, as well as significantly improving response speed, security, and ease of use.

TOS

The U8-450 supports up to 20TB of hard drive, and the total capacity can reach 160TB. It can store 60 million HD photos, 36 million working documents, 80,000 HD movies, and 8 million downloadable music, enabling you to back up the data in Windows PC, MAC computer, mobile phone, HDD enclosure, and network disk to TNAS for centralized management. This adequately protects users from data loss resulting from hardware malfunction or ransomware.

The U8-450 adopts 2U Rackmount case with a depth of only 384mm (15.1 inches) weighs merely 6.9kgs, which saves a lot of space. It features simple installation without any rail, it is applicable to most 2-column cabinets and wall-mounted small cabinets, and can be used in a machine room, storage room, staircase, office along with a plethora of other places. suitable for small office users. With a high-quality silent fan and specially optimized internal structure, the U8-450 maintains relatively low noise level when working conditions at full load.

TRAID is the abbreviation of TerraMaster RAID. TRAID is a flexible disk array management tool developed by TerraMaster. It has features such as the automatic combination of disk space, hard disk failure redundancy protection, and automatic capacity expansion. All these functions do not require manual configuration by the user, and the system will automatically complete the configuration according to the properties of the hard disk. TRAID provides users with an optimized, flexible and elastic disk array management solution, especially suitable for new users who are not proficient in how to configure a disk array.

The U8-450 supports all mainstream file services: SMB, NFS, SFTP/FTP, AFP, iSCSI, WebDAV; and is provided with multiple permission management of users, user groups, and folder, meeting across-platform file services in various network environments.

TOS can protect valuable data using visual user interfaces and trustworthy storage solutions thanks to its integration with multiple backup applications that can address backup needs in an array of circumstances.

Time Machine Backup: Allows macOS users to back up data on MAC computers, manage folder storage quotas, and selectively restore data based on the previous version of the backed up data as per timeline.

TerraSync: It's not only suitable for data synchronization among various clients for realizing version management of synchronized data, but it also can help Windows computer users to realize the multi-version backup of computer data.

TerraMaster File System Snapshot (TFSS): TFSS takes snapshots of entire file system of a TNAS device by reaping the benefits of the features of the file system, so as to avoid data loss caused by misoperations or ransomware attacks.

TFM Backup: With TFM Backup, one can easily back up shared folders in TNAS or to a wide range of various local storage locations or even to a remotely mounted folder.

CloudSync: This backs up or synchronizes TNAS data with the cloud drive, which not only improves the availability of cloud data, but also provides several offsite backup versions, thus safeguarding the security of your data.

Snapshot: It is possible to take continuous snapshots of your folders or iSCSI LUNs by enabling the snapshot schedule with the advanced storage technology and optimized snapshot technology available via the BTRFS file system. When problems arise, the system can roll back to points-in-time and restore to the last backup, thereby ensuring that your data is well protected.

Duple Backup: In order to provide several offsite backup versions, Duple Backup provides advanced data protection by backing up files in TNAS to another remote TNAS, file server, or cloud drive.

One can upgrade their network security protection level through private data access channel provided by VPN servers. The TerraMaster VPN server offers three modes of VPN services, namely PPTP, OpenVPN, and L2TP/IPsec. It is applicable to VPN connections for most network devices.

VPN Server

The U8-450 connects to your domain server through the AD domain or LDAP domain and assigns storage space access rights to your domain users and user groups, in essence reducing IT management costs whilst also ameliorating the efficiency of staff.

The TerraMaster File System Snapshot (TFSS) is a data protection tool founded upon on file system developed by TerraMaster. The TFSS takes snapshots of an entire file system by exploiting advantages of the features of the BTRFS file system, as such all the data on your TNAS device will be protected. In case of an accident, one just simply clicks the snapshot list to recover the data in an instant, without the risk of human error or ransomware attacks.
