Qsirch – A smarter, faster way to search
Quickly and easily find documents, photos, videos, and music with Qsirch, 
QNAP's new built-in NAS search application lets you find what you need by 
real-time, natural search. Simply type in as much as you know about what you are 
trying to find, including bits of the file name or even words/phrases in the 
document, and Qsirch will display a list of matches, complete with thumbnails, 
as you type. Qsirch even remembers your search history so you can quickly 
navigate to files you've previously searched for. Qsirch is a huge productivity 
boost it greatly reduces the amount of time spent looking for files on the NAS 
so you can focus on other tasks.
Note: 2GB RAM (4GB or more RAM is recommended for optimum performance) 
and QTS 4.1 or newer firmware is required.

The TS-EC2480U supports 6Gbps hard drives driving over 3,700 MB/s throughput 
and 410,000 IOPS*. Featuring with Intel Xeon E3 v3 Quad-Core Processor and 4 GB 
DDR3 ECC RAM, the TS-EC2480U greatly enhances efficiency of CPU-consuming tasks 
and serves more concurrent tasks at the same time.
 
*Tested in QNAP Lab. Figures could vary by environment.
Test Environment:
4 Client PC configurations: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600 CPU, 16GB DDR3 RAM, 
Windows 7 professional 64-bit, Dual-port Intel X520 10GbE Server Adapter, 
IOMeter sequential read and write.
NAS Configuration:
OCZ Vertex4 VTX4-25SAT3-128G SSDs with RAID 6 configuration, QNAP 
LAN-10G2T-U dual-port 10GBase-T network adapter*2
Internal cache port for IO acceleration

The TS-EC2480U supports two on-board mSATA internal cache ports, and up to 4 
SSDs can be used for caching. By installing mSATA flash modules (optional 
purchase), the IOPS performance of storage volumes can remarkably boost. It is 
perfect for improving overall workflow of random IOPS demanding applications 
such as database and virtualization. The internal cache port design reserves the 
space of hard drive tray for more storage capacity.
*Note: Instead of installing the mSATA in the internal cache port, SSDs 
are supported to be installed in the hard drive tray.
Removable motherboard drawer for easy maintenance

With the TS-EC2480U's removable motherboard drawer, IT administrators have 
easier access in upgrading/installing components such as RAM, the internal cache 
and 10GbE adapter. The motherboard itself can be removed and replaced without 
needing to remove the heavy TS-EC2480U from the rack cabinet, making it 
especially useful in maintaining the TS-EC2480U in data centers with multiple 
rack cabinets.
Note: Power-off is necessary before removing the motherboard drawer. It 
is not hot-pluggable.
10GbE ready

The TS-EC2480U offers four inbuilt Gigabit Ethernet ports and supports 10 
Gigabit high speed network by installing 10GbE network adapter. The 10GbE-ready 
TS-EC2480U delivers lightening data throughput. Coupled with the support for 
large storage capacity, the TS-EC2480U is perfect for data centers to storage 
big data and excel in fast data transmission, and for editing large size videos 
on-the-fly without transferring the videos between the TS-EC2480U and desktop 
computers.
Seamless capacity expansion

The TS-EC2480U supports online capacity expansion by cascading multiple 
QNAPRAID expansion enclosuresto meet the needs of growing 
business data. With the QNAP scale-up solution, raw storage capacity can be 
gradually expanded to 912TB. It is especially useful for large data 
applications, such as video surveillance, data archiving, and TV broadcast 
storage, to name few.
