The TS-h2477AXU-RP is a 24-bay rack-mount NAS designed for high-performance enterprise storage and virtualisation. It features an AMD Ryzen™ 7 PRO 7000-Series processor, full support for the ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system (which emphasises data integrity), and a host of expansion and connectivity options. According to QNAP the unit supports up to 192 GB DDR5 memory and dual PCIe Gen5 M.2 SSD slots for cache or tiering.
Secure your TS-h2477AXU-RP today and keep your projects on schedule.
Processor & memory head-room: The unit is powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 7000-Series 8-core/16-thread CPU with bursts up to 5.3 GHz.
With up to 192 GB of RAM supported this model is well-suited to demanding virtualisation workloads.
ZFS for enterprise data integrity: The QuTS hero OS (with ZFS) delivers strong capabilities such as inline deduplication/compression, self-healing checksums, and “Write Once Read Many” (WORM) options. This makes it especially relevant where data integrity, longevity and audit-compliance matter.
High bay count + expansion: With 24×3.5″ SATA bays, hot-swappable drives, 2× M.2 2280 PCIe Gen5 slots plus three PCIe Gen4 expansion slots, the unit offers flexibility for large-scale storage, high-I/O caching, NVMe tiering or network expansion.
Connectivity & virtualisation readiness: Dual 10 GBASE-T and dual 2.5 GbE ports (and optional higher-speed add-ons) ensure the platform can serve high throughput and virtual machine storage scenarios. The system also supports GPU-pass-through when used with the right cards.
Redundant design for enterprise resilience: With dual hot-swap power supplies and enterprise-grade build, this NAS is aimed at business-critical environments rather than desktop or entry-NAS use.
This solution is especially well suited to:
Virtualisation infrastructure (e.g., running multiple VMs/containers and backing them on NAS).
Large-scale file serving and collaborative workflows (video editing, large media libraries).
Enterprise backup and archival scenarios where data integrity (via ZFS) is a core requirement.
Hybrid cloud gateway setups – using local high-performance NAS in combination with cloud storage for tiering or DR.
Applications requiring both high storage capacity and high performance (cache, SSD tiering, etc).
Drive strategy: With 24 SATA bays you’ll want to plan your drive configuration (HDD vs SSD vs mixed) carefully. The benefit of ZFS in this platform means you’ll also want adequate memory and caching to maximise deduplication/compression.
RAM & CPU head-room: While you can start with the default spec, high-performance or dedupe-heavy workloads will benefit from more than the base memory. ZFS generally leverages RAM for caching (ARC) and read/write acceleration.
Cooling/power: Given the scale of the hardware and bays, ensure your rack environment can deliver sufficient power, cooling and airflow.
Network architecture: To fully realise the performance possible, consider the network fabric (10 GbE or higher) and how the NAS integrates into your existing VLANs, VM infrastructure, backup/DR workflows.
Licensing & OS features: The QuTS hero OS provides advanced features. Make sure you review which features (dedupe, snapshots, etc) you plan to use and whether your configuration meets the recommended requirements.
In the world of enterprise storage and virtualisation, the TS-h2477AXU-RP is a compelling option when your workload demands both large capacity and integrity-focused architecture. The combination of a modern Ryzen 7 PRO CPU, ZFS via QuTS hero, and expansion flexibility gives you a platform built for tomorrow’s requirements.
If your organisation is serious about virtual infrastructure, data protection, and performance—this unit offers a future-proof build with enterprise features built in.
