CONCLUSION

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

119p iib   It's quite clear just by looking at our charts that the TurboNAS TS-119P II has really nothing (or little) to be jealous of its larger brothers in arms and with hard disk drives reaching huge capacities (4TB up until today) its single bay should not really pose a problem to most people. Of course if you have two or more HDDs laying around and you want to use those instead of buying a brand new drive (understandable) then you can opt for the dual bay TS-219P II or the quad bay TS-419P II. Agreed the TS-119P II also lacks the many USB ports found in other larger models but in all my years working with NAS units I’ve never even once used more than 2 USB ports at the same time so that too shouldn't be a problem to most people either.

 

   The TurboNAS TS-119P II single bay NAS Server by QNAP currently retails at around USD230 inside the USA and 200Euros inside the EU a price tag which is surprisingly low for such a product. In the end however it all comes down (once again) to what your needs are and how much you are willing to spend to cover them. Personally i think that a single 4TB drive is more than enough to cover most usages one can think of but still there are many reasons for someone to want more drive bays available so that really comes down to personal preference. However we are here to judge a product based on its build quality, performance and price tag and because the TS-119P II almost excels in all three it receives our Golden Award.
