Intel® Celeron® J4105 quad-core 1.5 GHz processor
(burst up to 2.5 GHz), with 4GB/8GB DDR4 memory (up to 8GB dual-channel
memory), and supporting SATA 6Gb/s drives, the HS-453DX delivers
high-performance read/write speeds and maintains high speeds even with
AES-NI encryption enabled. The HS-453DX also provides dual M.2 2280
SATA SSD slots to configure SSD caching to further improve the

accessible switches, adapters and other solutions).
- Smoother media viewing
with SSD caching and SSD Over-provisioning
- The HS-453DX features a
Hybrid HDD + SSD structure. As SSD prices continue to fall, you can
flexibly allocate applications to SSDs, set up a SSD cache, or use
Qtier™ technology to automatically move frequently-accessed
files to SSD for the highest access speeds. With support for
software-defined SSD RAID extra over-provisioning (OP), the HS-453DX
enables you to allocate additional OP space (1% to 60%) to optimize SSD
random write speeds and to extend SSD lifespan. Your file backup and
multimedia entertainment will be smoother than ever!
- Complete control over
system status and data security
- QNAP Notification Center
integrates all notification settings of the NAS and its applications
into a single app, providing central management and greater
convenience. The Security Counselor also scans the HS-453DX for
potential weaknesses and provides recommendations to improve security.

backup and snapshot protection
- QNAP provides a reliable,
flexible backup & disaster recovery solution. With snapshots
you can fully record the system status and data and quickly recover to
this status if data is lost.
- Access your file from
anywhere
- The HS-453DX centrally
stores data and files, and supports SMB/CIFS, AFP and NFS protocols for
file sharing across Windows®, Mac®, and
Linux®/UNIX® devices. Coupled with Qsync (a utility
that turns a QNAP NAS into a safe, high-capacity data center for file
synchronization), any file uploaded to the HS-453DX will be made
available for all linked devices, such as computers, laptops and mobile
devices.
