QNAP Systems, Inc., today announced that it has extended the end date of Technical Support and Security Updates for some End of Life (EOL) models, helping users to defend against evolving security threats and allowing users to have more time to implement device upgrades.
EOL models may lack computational capabilities, be short on operational memory, be unable to receive up-to-date component drivers, or possess other technical constraints or deprecated technology. Due to these reasons, QNAP normally maintains security updates for 4 years after a product passes its EOL date. As a special effort to help users protect their devices from today’s security threats, QNAP has extended security updates for some EOL models till October 2022.
The extended end date of Technical Support and Security Updates applies as below:
| CPU Architecture | Last Supported NAS OS Version for the Model | Extended Date |
| x86 64-bit models or ARM models that support one of the NAS OS versions on the right. |
QTS 4.2.6 QTS 4.3.3 QTS 4.3.6 QTS 4.4.1 |
Effectively till October 2022 |

QNAP Systems, Inc., a leading computing, networking and storage solution innovator, today launched the QM2-2P410G1T and QM2-2P410G2T PCIe Gen 4 Cards; and the QM2-2P10G1TB PCIe Gen 3 Card. All three PCIe cards allow adding M.2 NVMe SSD slots and 10GbE connectivity to a QNAP NAS or PC/server/workstation, with no driver installation required. NAS users can improve overall NAS performance by enabling SSD caching, and upgrade NAS storage capacity without occupying any 3.5-inch drive bays. PC/server/workstation users can increase their storage capacity while also boosting overall IOPS performance by offloading bandwidth-demanding tasks to SSDs to minimize application loading times.
“The QM2-2P410GxT series and the QM2-2P10G1TB cards are new members of QNAP’s popular QM2 expansion card product line, which provides a competitive, budget-friendly storage expansion solution for both QNAP NAS users and PC/workstation users,” said Stanley Huang, Product Manager of QNAP, adding “The new QM2-2P410GXT series features Broadcom PCIe Gen 4 switch with PCIe 4.0 support and is ideal for handling resource-demanding applications, such as online 4K/8K video-editing and gaming. The QM2-2P10G1TB serves as a power-efficient and comprehensive solution to boost home/office productivity.”

Managing massive datasets is excessively complex and costly. Today, Seagate Technology Holdings plc, a world leader in mass-data storage infrastructure solutions, announced the new Exos® Application Platform (AP) with a new controller featuring 2nd Gen AMD EPYC™ processors. The efficient, scalable, affordable end-to-end compute and storage platform delivers integrated compute and storage in a single enclosure optimizing rack space utilization, power efficiency, heat dissipation, and storage density.
The need for advanced storage solutions continues to rise to unprecedented levels with the ever-increasing growth in data generation. According to a report commissioned by Seagate and conducted by the research firm IDC, Rethink Data, enterprise data is expected to grow at an average rate of 42.2% over the next two years. The survey, which was conducted by IDC, also found that only 32% of data available to enterprises is put to work. The remaining 68% is unleveraged.

QNAP Systems, Inc., a leading computing, and storage solutions innovator, partnered with ULINK Technology Inc. (ULINK), a world leader in providing IT storage interface test tools, to launch the DA Drive Analyzer. By leveraging cloud-based AI, this drive failure prediction tool allows users to take proactive steps to protect against server downtime and data loss by replacing drives before they fail.
The DA Drive Analyzer leverages statistics generated from ULINK’s cloud AI portal. Driven by historical usage data of millions of drives provided by users just like yourself, the DA Drive Analyzer’s drive health prediction applies machine learning to track historical behaviors and is able to find drive failure events that won’t be flagged by traditional diagnostics tools that rely on S.M.A.R.T. thresholds. Its user interface is also much more friendly and intuitive, allowing you to make plans to replace drives based on clearly defined drive information.
