   The TurboNAS TS-469U-RP may not be what most people would choose to have in their homes due to its sheer size and increased noise levels but once you start using it not many NAS servers can come even close to the things you can do with it. True QNAP makes even better NAS servers with Intel Quad Core Xeon CPUs, 4GB’s of DDR3 RAM and space for up to 16 drives but such solutions are ultra-high end build for extremely demanding enterprise environments. The only two downsides with solutions like the TS-469U-RP are their noise levels and rather high power consumption (which certainly shouldn’t be an issue in business/enterprise environments). On the other hand performance, features, build quality and the dual PSU failsafe system (redundant power supply) are far more important and crucial especially for demanding users. 

 

   Much like every Rackmount design high-end NAS server in the market the TurboNAS TS-469U-RP does not come cheap and so currently it retails for USD1453 inside the USA (Amazon) and at around 1250Euros inside the EU. Because of that people who don’t require the extra features offered by the TS-469U-RP but would just like to have its performance would be better off with the excellent (and quite smaller) TurboNAS TS-269 Pro. However for business and enterprise users such solutions are really a one way street and that’s why the TurboNAS TS-469U-RP by QNAP gets our Platinum award.
