QNAP has released QuTS hero h5.0.1, the latest version of their ZFS-based NAS operating system, offering better features for big data storage and data security environments. QNAP’s operating system combines the app-based QTS with a 128-bit ZFS file system, which provides customers with flexible storage management, comprehensive data protection, and optimized performance for business-critical applications.
First announced in 2020, the ZFS-based QuTS hero line was all about data integrity, which makes them ideal for enterprise usage where data protection is emphasized. Like QTS, QuTS hero includes an App Center that allows users to expand their NAS capabilities.
QuTS hero h5.0.1 features
- Up to 5 petabytes of capacity per shared folder
- Petabyte-scale capacity gives enterprises the confidence to tackle storage-demanding applications including Big Data analysis, edge computing, and AI.
- Secured file access with LUN encryption
- In addition to full NAS encryption and shared folder encryption, users can now encrypt specific LUNs to enhance access security.
- RAID disk replacement with spares before potential failure
- If NAS drives are failing, indicated through system slow down, S.M.A.R.T. values, or DA Drive Analyzer predictions, affected disks in a RAID group can be replaced at any time using spare disks. This greatly improves system reliability and removes the need for RAID rebuild.
- Windows Search Protocol (WSP) support for mounted shared folders
- WSP uses the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol. With WSP, users can search NAS shared folders via Windows when an SMB drive is mounted to the NAS.
