Introduction
The TR-002 USB 3.1 Gen. 2 RAID expansion enclosure allows you to expand the capacity of your QNAP NAS and PC. The TR-002 can also be utilized as a DAS (Direct-attached Storage) device, allowing you to directly access its content just by connecting it via USB. The TR-002 features two 3.5-inch SATA drive bays with USB 3.1 Gen. 2 Type-C connectivity to bring you a highly-reliable and secure storage capacity expansion solution. Effective storage expansion with RAID Support The TR-002 is an ideal storage expansion solution for PCs, especially for laptops which lack the ability to install higher-capacity drives.
Features
Featuring two 3.5-inch SATA drive bays and supporting RAID
configuration, the TR-002 provides the ability to store a vast number
of files and data and to ensure protection against potential drive
failure. upports various RAID levels The TR-002 supports various RAID
configurations. Depending on your requirements, you can switch between
hardware- or software-controlled RAID modes. Move the DIP switches to
corresponding positions for your ideal RAID mode: Individual, JBOD,
RAID 0 or RAID 1. You can also configure the RAID settings from your
QNAP NAS, or by using the QNAP External RAID Manager utility on your
computer.
Flexible storage configuration and management Compared with other RAID
enclosures, the TR-002 provides software-controlled configurations for
greater management flexibility. Users can configure RAID and monitor
disk health using Storage & Snapshots Manager on a QNAP NAS, or by
using the QNAP External RAID Manager utility on their computer.
Scenario 1: Expand the capacity of your NAS The TR-002 allows users to
expand their NAS storage capacity. By connecting the TR-002 to their
NAS and using the Storage & Snapshots Manager, users can easily
configure and manage their storage expansion.
The TR-002 supports a variety of QNAP NAS storage and file management
functions, allowing users to build storage pools, find files with
Qsirch and organize files with Qfiling. Use the TR-002 as an
alternative to conventional NAS expansion enclosures As an external
hardware RAID device, the TR-002 operates independently and does not
require additional NAS system resources. The TR-002 features USB 3.1
Gen.2 connection and supports SATA 6Gb/s drives for high-speed data
access.
Scenario 2: External storage for your NAS Instead of using the TR-002
to expand the capacity of your QNAP NAS, you can use it as a
complimentary storage unit for backing up or moving data. It also
allows you to physically migrate huge data collections that would
require significant network bandwidth. While connected to the NAS, you
can monitor the health and status of the TR-002 by using the Storage
& Snapshots Manager on the NAS. Scenario 3: Expand the storage
space of your computer The TR-002 can quickly add storage space to your
computer. You can use the DIP switch to configure a hardware RAID mode
or manage it by using the QNAP External RAID Manager utility. The
health and status of the TR-002 can also be monitored by using the QNAP
External RAID Manager utility. Scenario 4: Cross-platform file sharing
From your NAS to Windows, Mac, and Linux computers, the TR-002 is
compatible with a wide range of devices. This makes it ideal for
quickly moving large files between different devices. The TR-002 is
even compatible with devices that use the exFAT file system, adding
further convenience for accessing and sharing files from a wider range
of devices.
