Apple Time Machine is also supported to provide Mac OS X users with a solution to effortlessly back up data to the TVS-1271U-RP. Disaster recovery solutions brings peace of mind The TVS-1271U-RP offers various data recovery options. RTRR (Real-Time Remote Replication) supports real time or scheduled data backup to a remote Turbo NAS or FTP server and synchronizes files to a remote folder from a local folder with better backup efficiency and reduced backup time. The TVS-1271U-RP also supports rsync protocol to back up data to another remote server on a scheduled basis. Data can also be backed up to and restored from a range of cloud storage services, including Amazon® S3, Amazon Glacier, Microsoft® Azure, ElephantDrive®, Symform®, Dropbox® and Google® Drive. Comprehensive security options In an open network environment, business data may be exposed in a potential hack. The TVS-1271U-RP provides numerous security options, such as encrypted access, IP blocking, and more. Besides, IT administrators can control the access rights of each user to different folders, preventing unauthorized access to important files. The TVS-1271U-RP is validated with military level FIPS 140-2 AES 256-bit encryption, preventing sensitive business data from unauthorized access and breach even if the hard drives or the entire system were stolen. Full NAS encryption technology ensures data security QNAP's full NAS encryption by volume-based technology effectively ensures data security by encrypting all of the files stored in the default shared folders on the TVS-1271U-RP. Even if the TVS-1271U-RP is encrypted, all the files can still be accessible via Windows SMB/CIFS, iSCSI, and NFS protocols. Users without permission to access the TVS-1271U-RP will be unable to access the stored files, hence data security risks and privacy leaks can be avoided. Storage for comprehensive virtualization applications The TVS-1271U-RP supports VMware® and Citrix®, and is compatible with Microsoft® Hyper-V™ and Windows Server 2012, benefiting flexible deployment and management in the virtualization environments. The TVS-1271U-RP supports VMware VAAI and Microsoft ODX to increase performance by offloading server loading for ESXi server and Hyper-V respectively, and supports QNAP vSphere Client plug-in and QNAP SMI-S provider with enhanced operational efficiency and management in virtualization applications. Run multiple OS' on the TVS-1271U-RP The Virtualization Station transforms the TVS-1271U-RP into a 2-in-a-box NAS that can function as an all-in-one NAS and a virtualization platform that supports multiple operating systems, fast virtual machine creation, virtual machine import/export, snapshot, and enables desktop operations on web browsers. With an easy-to-use interface, you can centrally manage all of the virtual machines created on the TVS-1271U-RP with minimal effort. You can also download VMs on demand from online VM markets and import them to TVS-1271U-RP without any complex procedure. Optimize IT a
