PCIe expandability allows for graphics cards or 40GbE/ 25GbE/ 10GbE adapters to increase application performance.
Supports VMware®, Citrix®, Microsoft® Hyper-V® and Windows Server® 2016 virtualization with reliability and cost-efficiency.
Software-defined SSD extra over-provisioning combats write amplification and optimizes SSD random write speeds for IOPS-demanding applications.
Comprehensive security management, providing a security portal for your NAS and helping you to stay informed of NAS status at all times.
The Intel® Xeon® E based TS-1683XU-RP uses ECC memory that can detect and correct single-bit memory errors as they occur to prevent downtime and data loss, which is essential for always-on, mission-critical, server-grade applications. The TS-1683XU-RP supports dual-channel DDR4 memory in four Long-DIMM slots. When using paired memory modules, the TS-1683XU-RP can leverage the power of dual-channel architecture to boost performance. You also customize the memory configuration (supports up to 64 GB RAM) of the TS-1683XU-RP for greater performance to tackle dynamically-changing workloads such as virtualization.
The TS-1683XU-RP features outstanding hardware and expandable architecture, enabling optimum performance and flexibility to fulfill business needs in performance and application diversification.
The TS-1683XU-RP provides two 10GbE SFP+ ports that use the Mellanox® ConnectX®-4 Lx SmartNIC controller. They support the iSCSI Extensions for RDMA (iSER) protocol, allowing data to bypass general network drivers, the socket layer, and to directly enter memory buffers of the ESXi server and storage to offload CPU workloads. When both the VMware® server and the TS-1683XU-RP support iSER, it can provide up to 60% increased random read/write performance and 50% decreased latency, providing an essential tool to optimize demanding virtualization applications.

The TS-1683XU-RP provides multiple PCIe slots. To ensure that the SATA drives have sufficient bandwidth, it is recommended to only use low-end expansion cards, (such as a 1GbE NIC, USB 3.0 card, or Wi-Fi adapter) with the PCIe Gen2 slot (Slot 1) as this slot is connected to the PCH. For high-end expansion cards (including 10GbE/40GbE NICs, SAS cards, Mustang-200 acceleration card, and graphics cards), it is recommended to use PCIe Gen3 slots (Slot 2, 3, 4) as these slots are connected to the CPU.
The TS-1683XU-RP features 4 PCIe slots that allow for the usage of various expansion cards to expand application potential.
Note: 1U, 2U rackmount models use low-profile graphics cards; 3U, 4U rackmount models use high-profile graphics cards.
Graphics cards are optimized for graphical calculations and transformations. The TS-1683XU-RP provides PCIe slots for installing an AMD Radeon™ or NVIDIA® graphics card to boost data-intensive AI machine learning, while also providing benefits for imaging processing and virtual machine performance (via GPU passthrough).
Note:
1. 3U/4U models support high-profile graphics cards that require external power; 1U/2U models support low-profile graphics cards that do not require additional external power (For example, the NVIDIA GT1030).
2. GPU support for QTS only applies to NVIDIA graphics cards. GPU Passthrough for VM is supported by AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards.
3. When Virtualization Station uses graphics cards, the NAS will temporarily stop hardware transcoding acceleration for QTS (and vice versa).
4. Always consult the Compatibility List for supported NAS and graphics cards before purchasing a graphics card for the NAS.
