30% of QNAP users choose to build RAID 5 array for their NAS for higher data protection, better system performance and more available storage space. The TS-328 is QNAP's first 3-bay NAS, allowing you to build a RAID 5 array on your NAS with the fewest disks. Powered by a Realtek quad-core RTD1296 processor, the TS-328 features a minimalist design that easily fits into your home or commercial space. With a variety of multimedia applications, transcoding capabilities and cross-device file backup and synchronization, the TS-328 provides a highly cost-effective solution for storage, backup, file management, and sharing.
- With just three disks you can build a secure RAID 5 array on the TS-328. This provides optimized storage capacity and protection against one disk failing.
- Supports H.264/H.265 hardware decoding and transcoding, providing a smoother video viewing experience.
- Snapshots fully record system status and data (including metadata). If files are accidentally deleted or modified, you can quickly restore the data with snapshots.
- Qfiling automates file organization, greatly improving work efficiency.
- Hybrid Backup Sync consolidates backup and sync tasks to a single app; Qsync is an easy-to-use real-time file sync service for computers and mobile devices.
- Take photos or record videos using Qphoto on your mobile device and they will be automatically uploaded to the TS-328.
Central management for multimedia files
You may have lots of photos or videos spread across devices, which can be hard to manage and back up. With the TS-328, you can centrally backup and manage all your files and easily share them with others. With the new version of File Station (QTS 4.3.4), you can directly access the photos and videos on your mobile device by connecting it to the TS-328 via USB. You can even use the Qphoto mobile app to take photos or record videos and directly upload them to the TS-328 for greater protection to save the storage space on the mobile device.
Realtek quad-core processor
The TS-328 is powered by a Realtek RTD1296 quad-core 1.4 GHz processor with 2GB DDR4 memory. It provides two 1GbE ports and SATA 6Gb/s disk drives, delivering up to 225 MB/s read/write speeds. The TS-328 also has two USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0 ports, allowing you to easily transfer large media files across devices via USB connection.
Protect data with snapshots
Snapshots help protect your data by fully recording the NAS system state and the metadata. If an error occurs, you can use snapshots to quickly restore the system to its normal state. QNAP snapshots are block-based and only record the changed data. Not only does this save storage space but also reduces the time required to back up and restore data.
Real-time video transcoding
The TS-328 supports 4K H.264/H.265 hardware decoding and real-time transcoding , allowing you to convert videos to universal file formats that can be smoothly played on multiple devices*. Therefore, you can easily share movies or travel videos saved on your NAS to your family and friends via shared links and they can enjoy watching the videos smoothly anytime and anywhere.
SSD cache acceleration
The TS-328 supports SSD caching to greatly boost the IOPS performance of storage volumes and increase operational efficiency. It is perfect for improving the overall workflow of IOPS-demanding applications and allows the best of both cost and performance by combining SSDs with HDDs.

Good NAS; Quick and simple to setup - love the QNAP interface. I bought this as a replacement for an earlier QNAP model. This does all that I wanted the older one to do and quick and responsive.
With room for three drives the 328 lets you use RAID5, which is far better bang for buck than you'll get with the two-bay enclosures. The RAM is enough for file sharing, DLNA, downloading, and a Kodi database, but it starts swapping after that. It's still heaps, though. I will dock it a star because upgradeable RAM would have been nice.
The CPU has nothing to do as I am not using it for video transcoding.
The fan is a decent size, larger than the one in the 2-bay enclosure it replaced and with two 4T drives in there it barely turns over in normal operation so I have no worries about its lifespan.

Died after 3 days of setting it all up. Must have been a dodgy motherboard. Wouldn't power up at all. Looks like others around the world have experienced some issues with reliabilty of this model. PB tech refunded and I bought a different brand.
