QNAP TS-h1277AXU-RP 12-Bay NAS Enclosure

The QNAP TS-H1277AXU-RP-R5-16G-US is a NAS enclosure that installs in a standard rack and provides twelve bays for 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch SATA drives. Powered by a 6-core AMD Ryzen 5 7000 processor with integrated Radeon graphics and 16 GB of DDR5 memory, it delivers the throughput needed for file sharing, backup, and virtualization in busy IT departments.

Networking is handled by two 2.5 GbE ports alongside two 10 GbE ports, so teams can move large datasets or 4K footage without waiting. Three PCIe Gen 4 slots make future expansion straightforward, letting you add extra network adapters, GPUs, or storage controllers as requirements evolve. Two M.2 PCIe Gen 5 x2 slots accept NVMe SSDs for cache acceleration, reducing latency for database queries and virtual machine workloads.

Dual 550 W power supplies operate in a redundant configuration that keeps the enclosure online even if one unit fails. You can deploy either the ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system or the traditional QTS interface, giving you flexibility in how you manage snapshots, deduplication, and data integrity checks.

Creative studios, virtualization labs, and midsize enterprises will appreciate how easily the TS-H1277AXU-RP scales. Populate the bays with high-capacity hard drives for nearline storage, add SSDs for cache, and the system is ready to grow to petabyte levels while remaining simple to administer through QNAP’s web console.
