New TerraMaster NAS models have fast speeds, high capacity

The new NAS devices support Macs

TerraMaster has released two network-attached storage devices with fast 10 gigabit Ethernet networking and good support for Mac.

The company designed the T9-450 and T12-450 for professionals with workflows that involve virtualization, databases, photo and video content creation, and other uses.

They can handle high-capacity storage configurations. Both models support 20TB hard disk drives, leading to a total capacity of 180TB for the T9-450 and 240TB for the T12-450.

TerraMaster's network storage products run the new TOS 5 operating system that features over 50 new functions and 600 improvements over the previous version. Using TOS 5, the T9-450 and T12-450 can access various backup solutions, including TerraSync, TFSS, CloudSync, TFM backup, and Duple backup.
