Measuring 235.4mm in depth, 210.6mm in length and 185mm in height the 4.4kg heavy TS-531P is certainly not the smallest NAS in the market (although perhaps the smallest 5-bay one).

Once again we see that the left side of the enclosure is perforated to allow hot air to exit the interior.

At the front of the NAS we see the company logo, 5 drive trays, activity LEDs (status/USB/LAN), power button and the one touch copy/backup button and its USB 3.0 port.

All 5 drive trays are made out of aluminum and can accommodate both 2.5" and 3.5" drives.

A large sticker at the top helps you launch the MyQNAPCloud setup with ease thanks to the 2D barcode.

What really stands out at the rear is the large 120mm intake fan (and the smaller 40mm intake fan of the PSU).

There's also a PCI expansion slot present along with 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports, two USB 3.0 ports, debug jack and a Kensington lock.
