TS-853B coming?

[CalgaryTech]

Hi, I really like the TS-653B specs but I want one with 8 bays. Can anyone advise if QNAP is planning on releasing a TS-853B soon? I prefer over the RS-853A due to the new processor and PCI expansion card. It seems like the TS-653B was a bit of a stealth launch.

Thanks!

What the *beep*

Have been waiting "forever" for the successor to the 853A, due to the lack of expansion port.

Have been checking

With ever growing anticipation, waiting for the news that the 853A got a successor, but nothing has been written there.

I can only second the OP's request for this to come in an 8 bay variant and i will probably at buy a new nas to succeed the TS-420 i have right now.

So QNAP....Get your finger our and get a stretched, 8 bay version released asap

As far as I know, Qnap is not planning on releasing an 8 bay version of the TS-x53B.

Based on the TS-x53B Mini user guide, 2/4/6 bay models are it.

Hi,
For 8-bay x86 NAS please consider TS-853A or TVS-871, TVS-873.

Based on the TS-x53B Mini user guide, 2/4/6 bay models are it.

just checked your right.

QNAP Systems has announced the availability of the new TS-x53B series, which is highlighted by a PCIe expansion slot for high-performing scalability and functionality that SMB and SOHO users need.
