The SFF ports and drive slots order: SFF port 1 to HDD slot 1-4

Flexible Storage Configuration and Management

The TL-D400S provides software-controlled storage configuration for greater management flexibility. You can configure RAID and monitor JBOD enclosure and disk health with Storage & Snapshots when connected to a QTS or QuTS hero NAS, or with the QNAP JBOD Manager utility when connected to a computer.

  • Use the Storage & Snapshots Manager in QTS or QuTS hero to configure the TL-D400S as a storage enclosure for your QNAP NAS. The NAS expansion storage mode supports various NAS functions, including storage pools and snapshots. With TL-D400S, you can easily expand storage capacity.

  • The QNAP JBOD Manager is a desktop utility for monitoring the TL-D400S on Windows® and Ubuntu® computers. You can quickly obtain disk statuses, JBOD information and health, view fan rotation speed, and check for firmware version updates.

What you need to know

You can connect your TL-D400S to Windows® and Ubuntu® computers through SFF-8088 (or SFF-8644) high-speed cable and use built-in utility to manage RAID configuration.

Note:
1. QXP series PCIe cards do not support Mac Pro.
2. If there are any unexpected boot failures during QXP PCIe cards installation on the host, please check with the host manufacturing company for any new BIOS updates. Alternatively, you can try disabling the boot from the PCIe slot function or disable the external graphics card option.

Intelligently Monitor JBOD Enclosure Status on PC and Servers with QNAP JBOD Manager

The QNAP JBOD Manager is a desktop utility for monitoring the TL-D400S on Windows® and Ubuntu® computers. You can quickly obtain the disk statuses, JBOD information and health, view fan rotation speed, and check for firmware version updates. All device events are recorded, and will send desktop notifications when a system alert occurs.

Notes:
1. You can set up new software RAID groups in [Windows Storage Spaces] in Windows 8/10/11 (or later versions).
2. Windows Server 2012 R2 (or later version) users can set up new software RAID groups in [Server Manager].
3. Ubuntu users need to pass commands into [mdadm] to set up new software RAID groups.
4. Does not support macOS.

Flexibly Expand Connectivity with QXP PCIe Cards

Install an exclusive QXP PCIe card onto your QNAP NAS, Windows® or Ubuntu® PC to connect the JBOD enclosure via SFF-8088 (or SFF-8644) cable , for easy and flexible storage expansion.

How to update a BIOS

Note:
1. The TL-D400S package includes one QXP-400eS-A1164 card (can be purchased additionally) and one 1M SFF-8088 to SFF-8088 cable.
2. A SATA JBOD storage enclosure can only connect to one NAS. Users can only use QNAP JBOD Manager to view statuses of devices and disks installed with QNAP expansion cards and JBODs. Users can only create single storage expansions when the QXP PCIe card is not connected to a TL SATA JBOD enclosure.
3. TL SATA JBOD storage enclosure can install different QXP PCIe cards. For example, one NAS can be matched with multiple QXP PCIe cards to connect to TL SATA JBOD storage enclosure or users can use one QXP-800eS to expand two TL-D400S (there are no quantity limits except for restrictions mentioned in the previous note).
4. The TL SATA JBOD and QXP SATA expansion card support at most 1 meter (3.28 feet) long cable.
5. Users of the TVS-871U-RP, TVS-1271U-RP, and x80 series NAS must update their BIOS to the minimum BIOS version. If not, unexpected boot failures might occur.

Versatile usage scenarios to meet storage expansion needs

The TL-D400S meets many storage expansion requirements for the home and office. Below is a list of potential application scenarios:

Scenario 1: Expand your NAS capacity

The TL-D400S provides an alternative method for users to expand their NAS storage capacity. By connecting the TL-D400S to their NAS and using Storage & Snapshots Manager in QTS or QuTS hero, users can easily configure and manage their storage expansion. The TL-D400S supports a variety of QNAP NAS storage and file management functions, allowing users to build storage pools, finding files with Qsirch, and organizing files with Qfiling.

Function QNAP TL-D400S QNAP TR-004 Other external RAID/ JBOD device
Connection Type SATA USB 3.2 Gen 1 By device
Drive bays 4 4 By device
Supported systems QNAP QTS/QuTS hero, Windows, Linux etc… QNAP QTS/QuTS hero, Windows, Linux etc… QNAP QTS/QuTS hero, Windows, Linux etc…

Create Storage Pool Supported
(QNAP QTS)		 Supported
(QNAP QTS)		 Not Supported
RAID migration, capacity expansion Supported (QNAP QTS/QuTS hero, Windows, Linux) Not Supported Varies by device

Note:
1. The TL-D400S does not support QNAP NAS models that cannot be updated to QTS 4.4.2 (or later) and the following NAS models: TS-128, TS-228, TS-131, TS-231, TS-431, TS-431U.
2. Drives can only be migrated from one TL USB JBOD to another TL USB JBOD. Files and data stored on drives migrated to or from other JBOD devices will not be recognized.

Scenario 2: External storage for your NAS

You can use the TL-D400S to expand your NAS storage. You can select disks to create storage pools for expanding your NAS capacity, or you can treat each disk as an individual external storage space and use it as a removable drive for greater flexibility. Regardless of the mode you use, you can always use Storage & Snapshots Manager in QTS or QuTS hero to set up and manage your TL-D400S and use hard drive S.M.A.R.T. and Notification Center to check disk status anytime and anywhere.

  • Mode 1: Expand NAS capacity by storage pool mode

    You can use Storage & Snapshots Manager in QTS or QuTS hero to configure the RAID storage pool for your TL-D400S and expand NAS capacity.

    Note: The TL-D400S can only be used as an individual storage pool or volume on the NAS. Its storage pool or volume cannot be combined into the connected NAS. NAS applications cannot be installed on the TL-D400S.

  • Mode 2: Expand your NAS by external storage mode

    You can treat each disk on your TL-D400S as an individual storage space and expand your NAS capacity. For example, it will show 8 independent external disks on an 8-bay NAS.

    Note: The TL-D400S supports multiple disk formats, including NTFS (for Windows), HFS+ (for Mac), EXT4 (for Ubuntu or QNAP NAS), exFAT (for Windows, Mac, Ubuntu, and QNAP NAS) etc.

Scenario 3: Expand the storage space of your Windows® and Ubuntu® computers

You can use your TL-D400S to expand the storage space of Windows® and Ubuntu® computers. You can set up the RAID configuration of your TL-D400S to further secure data protection. Moreover, you can also use the single disk mode and format with exFAT file system for more convenient access and sharing of files between Windows® and Ubuntu® computers.

Note:
1. The QNAP JBOD Manager supports Windows 8/10/11 (or later versions), Windows Server 2012 R2 (or later versions), Ubuntu 18.04/ 20.04 LTS (or later versions).
2. Because Windows® and Ubuntu® operating systems are incompatible, the TL-D400S does not support cross-platform sharing after the RAID configuration setup.

  • Mode 1: RAID configuration mode

    You can obtain data protection by building a software RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 5 volume with native utility in your Windows® and Ubuntu® computers, and use the QNAP JBOD Manager to monitor the TL-D400S status information.

  • Mode 2: Single disk mode

    You can format hard drives with the exFAT file system while accessing and sharing files between Windows® and Ubuntu® computers.

Scenario 4: Third-party hardware RAID card for advanced protection

You can install third-party hardware RAID cards on your TL-D400S for advanced hardware RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, RAID 50, and RAID 60 protection and use Windows® utility software to manage your TL-D400S.

Function MRAID MegaRAID Storage Manager Storage Manager RAID Management
Brand Areca Broadcom Microsemi HighPoint
Model ARC-1883x MegaRAID SAS 9286-8e (6 Gb/s)
MegaRAID SAS 9286-8e (12 Gb/s)		 SmartRAID 3154-8e RocketRAID 3742A

Note: The third-party hardware RAID card cannot be used simultaneously with QNAP JBOD manager and QXP series PCIe cards.

TL-D400S Offers Better Performance Than Other USB and eSATA JBOD Solutions

The TL-D400S features SFF-8088 (or SFF-8644) connectivity and multiple SATA 6Gb/s bays. This provides better sequential read performance and faster data transfer speeds than existing USB and eSATA expansion enclosures, while also being a more economical option compared to a QNAP REXP SAS enclosure.
