QNAP - the Optimal Storage Solution for Roon

Due to the architecture of Roon*, combining a powerful CPU with SSD drives is highly recommended to ensure a smooth listening experience. QNAP offers a wide variety of NAS models with powerful CPUs capable of running Roon smoothly and effortlessly. Designed to stay running 24/7 QNAP serves as a convenient solution to host your Roon core for on demand access. Connecting to a Roon Core running on QNAP NAS is easy from any Roon compatible device.

Safeguard Your Music Collection with Robust Storage Security

It’s never fun to lose data, and if you’ve ever had a hard drive crash you may have experienced this first hand. QNAP provides comprehensive data security solutions.

Protect Against Hard Drive Failure

RAID redundancy helps protect you from losing your music library in the event of a drive failure. With RAID you dedicate a number of drives to redundancy so that if a drive fails you can simply replace it with a new drive and avoid any data loss.

Protect Against Ransomware

QNAP supports snapshots enabling you to have a record of your data at a point in time that can be rolled back to in the event of unwanted changes such as a ransomware infection or accidental deletion.

Protect Against Theft or Other Unforeseen Disasters with Offsite Backups

The final step to creating a comprehensive safe storage solution will be to set up offsite backups. This can be done easily with QNAP’s Hybrid Backup Sync by backing up to either a public cloud or a second NAS in a different location.

Efficient and Effective

QNAP brings the most out of your NAS

Not only does QNAP offer NAS models equipped with powerful CPUs, but it also provides the ability to create multiple RAID groups and also implement caching and tiering(Qtier) technology allowing you to create an HDD/SSD hybrid storage solution to facilitate massive storage capacity, groundbreaking performance, and budget conscious spending. Additionally QNAP has a new storage tool called Qboost which can clean out junk files, free up memory, and schedule app use enabling you to optimize your NAS to run as efficiently as possible for your needs.
