Qnap Adapter QNA-UC5G1T USB 3.0 to 5G/2.5G/1G
An Easy Plug-n-play way to connect to your QNAP NAS at 5Gb/s with the QNA-UC5G1TGood news for anyone who wants to upgrade their connectivity to the speed on their NAS, but does not have connections like 10Gbe or a PCIe slot at their disposal, with the announcement of a brand new kind of ethernet adapter from the guys at QNAP. As the designated innovators of NAS and with a well-established history of outside-of-the-box thinking, if any brand was going to challenge the way we access and connect with our data, it was always going to be QNAP. The QNA-UC5G1T is a USB 3.0-to-RJ45 bus-powered device that once connected to a host device via USB-C, then allows you to connect an ethernet device to the other end.
However this is more than a simple ethernet adapter, as it will allow you to access the ethernet connection at upto 5Gb per second (USB 3.0 speeds), that’s 5x faster than your traditional 1Gbe RJ45 LAN connectivity. With their popular Thunderbolt3-to-10Gbe devices (QNA-T310G1T and QNA-T310G1S) proving very popular indeed, it makes sense that they would expand on this hardware logic and the new QNAP QNA-UC5G1T USB-to-5Gbe adapter is the product of that.
What is the QNAP QNA-UC5G1T USB to 5/2.5/1Gbe adapter for?
On the face of it, many users might not understand the significance of this hardware development. In order to really understand, you have to appreciate that the speed of data is becoming an increasing hurdle for many users. Not just photo and video editors, or those with massive amounts of data to shift on a continuous basis. The increasing issue of data size vs access speed is becoming a problem for home users too. Whether they have large scale backups that require a fast turn around, dense media that exceeds the 1 gigabit threshold in practical access terms is growing sluggish or simply that the software on their computer requires faster access and synchronization to the files on their NAS drive.
USB 3.0 to 5GbE Adapter
Connect to 5GbE networks over USB 3.0
The light and portable QNAP QNA-UC5G1T USB 3.0 to 5GbE adapter provides the ability to add an extra network port to your computer or QNAP NAS. Supporting 5GbE/ 2.5GbE/ 1GbE/ 100MbE connections, the QNA-UC5G1T is especially useful for laptops that lack native Ethernet connectivity.
Add a 5GbE Ethernet port to your laptop
To make thinner and lighter laptops, some manufacturers tend to omit Ethernet ports. With the QNA-UC5G1T you can upgrade your laptop to support 5GbE RJ45 Ethernet connectivity and take advantage of high-speed network connections.
Please note:
To ensure optimal performance, it is recommended to set the Jumbo Frames on all the devices in your local network environment to MTU 9000.

Synology DiskStation NAS DS620slim 6-Bay 2.5" NAS Drive
Brand New DS620slim NAS Drive from Synology Uncovered
Arriving later in 2019, the brand new Synology DS620slim has been revealed at Taipei in the Synology Solution Exhibition and though we were already informed of a few of the up and coming units in advance (a rare thing from Synology), it is still great to know that Synology still have a few tricks up its sleeve. Arriving with an Intel J3355 2.0Ghz CPU, as well as 2 LAN ports and 15mm 2.5″ 5TB HDD Support, this is yet another potentially hot release to join the Synology 2019-2020 line up. So, what do we know about the DS620slim from Synology? Who is it aimed at? And should this be your next big technology purchase? Let’s take a closer look.
What are the Hardware Specifications of the DS620slim Synology NAS Drive?
The hardware specs and software attributes of the DS620slim NAS were provided in moderately vague terms (as you might expect) at the Synology event, though with what they provided alongside the history of Synology DSM, we can make some educated guesses about what the DS620slim can do. I know it seems rather ‘cave-man’ to reduce it down to hardware (instead of primarily focusing on the software, applications and just how the DS620slim can support them), but the hardware that a NAS arrives with will largely dictate both the precise applications the NAS will run, but also the extent to which it can (everything from number of simultaneous users, number of cameras for surveillance, number of backups and the extent of file and graphical manipulation. Speeds between your PC/Mac/Smart Portable device will largely be governed by the CPU+Memory the NAS and the network interface ports, so, therefore, the hardware specifications are incredibly important to a NAS and the DS620slim is by no means an exception to this rule.

QNAP Wake On Lan QWU-100 WOL Adapter for QuWakeUp (USB or LAN/PoE)
Undoubtedly a very interesting product for those users who need to operate equipment, start and shutdown from outside the house. You will already know the Wake-On-Lan function that currently have virtually all devices such as PCs, servers or NAS. This function allows us to move from a state of suspension a computer to be able to start them through the network card , through an interruption code or "magic pack" based on your MAC address with 16 consecutive repetitions.As QWU-100 offers something more than this, because it eliminates the necessary barriers to interact with our devices remotely, using VPN or Port Forwarding. Now it is as simple as connecting this equipment at home, before our switch or router so that it can detect our computer connected through the network thanks to the QuWakeUp application that comes with it.
As Qnap usually does, this device has a graphical management interface through our web browser . From it, we can configure the Wake-On-Lan of each device and establish power-on tails. Similarly, we have an application for Smartphone that allows us to do all these functions without the need of a browser. And if we do not have enough, everything can be managed through MyQNAPcloud to make it as secure and invisible as possible against hackers.

Qnap 1GbE Combo Switch QSW-308-1C Unmanaged Switch
New QNAP QSW-308-1C and QSW-303S Affordable 10Gbe Switch Supporting RJ45 and SFP+
In our continued coverage of Computex, we have spent an inordinate amount of time with the guys at QNAP. Their stand currently features an impressive mix of heavy hitters that either made their appearance at CES 2019 or are already available to home and business users. Into this mix, we find the new QNAP QSW-308-1C and QSW-303S 10Gbe unmanaged switch that, as you would expect from the big innovators in NAS, has got a qwerky and unique selling feature or two under the bonnet. Reaching out to more cost-effective consumers that only want to partially adopt 10Gbe into their environment, the QSW-308-1C and QSW-303S is a low power, low noise network solution that provides a good balance between supporting more traditional 1-gigabit network devices and adds multiple channels for connecting 10x gigabit devices. This, along with an impressive network processor under the bonnet shows that QNAP is not sitting idle. Let us take a closer look at the new QSW-308-1C and QSW-303S 10Gbe network switch.
Who is the QNAP QSW-308-1C and QSW-303S 10Gbe Unmanaged Switch Targeted at?
As you would expect, each QNAP NAS, switch, NIC or adapter is designed with a certain user type or industry in mind, either in the interests of efficiency, or to get a price point that presents an attractive Hardware vs Value bottom line for the user. The QSW-308-1C and QSW-303S are designed with application with companies that only want to include 10Gbe speed of access to 1/10 of their network hardware connected. Perhaps it is a 10Gbe NAS, that will provide enormous speeds to the network environment, then allow all 1Gbe PC, Mac, Office terminals and devices to get the MAX 1Gbe each, without the bandwidth being tottled between NAS and switch in the background.

Synology FlashStation NAS FS3600 24-Bay 2.5" 2U SAS/SATA Rackmount
Brand New FS6400 SSD Based NAS Drive from Synology Uncovered
The new tech being revealed here in Taipei continues from Synology. Next, up in our continued coverage of new NAS server for later in 2019, we have the brand new Flashstation FS6400 Rackmount NAS for enterprise-class users who want some of the fastest internal and external transmissions speeds ever achieved on a Synology NAS device. This is by no means the first time that Synology has delved into the word of SSD only based storage, with the previously released FS3017 Rackmount and FS1018 Desktop chassis servers. However, the FS6400 is by far their boldest flash solution yet, in terms of power, storage, expandability and ability. With spectacular IOPs that promise to outweigh those of its predecessors, a combination of 10Gbe as standard and 25Gbe/40Gbe upgradability, alongside a unique internal CPU/Controller internal design, the Synology FS6400 Flashstation may well seem ridiculously enterprise, but whether you are in the market for AI active storage, looking for a data center solution that’s in it for the low-term, or just someone that appreciates good hardware (*waves hand in the air a bit*), then this could well be of interest to you.
