While the QNAP TAS-268 is not the fastest NAS we've tested, it is none the less functional. If you consider the NAS has only 2 GB of ram and cannot be upgraded and a dual core 1.1 GHz CPU, the NAS does pretty well. But speed isn't everything. A combinatio...
Fully integrated dual QTS and Android system, Space-efficient vertical design, Powered by dual-core ARM processor, Built-in HDMI interface, Supports RAID 0, 1, JBOD and single disk configurations, File sharing and backups for Windows, Mac and Linux client
Mediocre read and write speeds, Android system is sluggish at times, Hard to navigate through parts of the Android interface with included remote
Android OS allows you to stream media from a variety of sources, Streams 2160p content (downscaled to 1080p)
Limited QNAP/NAS app selection, Compared to a smart TV, it's not as easy to set up or use, Erratic 2160p playback on attached display
The TAS-268 and its TAS-168 cousin are a tough call for me. While they actually outshine the consumer media streamers in capabilities, they're nowhere near as elegant or easy to set up and use. That makes them largely a no-go for the average consumer...
Abstract: The QNAP TAS-268 2-Bay QTS-Android NAS is outstanding and what really makes it unique is the dual operating system. It has both the QTS Linux OS and the Android OS. It's capable of UHD (4K)/HD (1080p), so add the keyboard, mouse and a display and this is...

Dual OS QNAP QTS and Android 4.4.4, An easy way to add a huge amount of storage to your Android ecosystem, Four USB 2.0 ports for peripherals, One USB 3.0 port for transferring files, Neat form factor, Nifty remote control
Slow dual core processor reduces performance, No WiFi, Cooling fan is persistently noisy, Would be easier to simply use a Google Nexus Player on your TV.
The QNAP TAS-268 is a peculiar NAS that answers a question that we had not previously considered. If you use Android media devices and want a load more storage then Bingo, you have a result, TAS-268 is two devices in one and you can install Terabytes of s...
Dual OS all the advantages of Android on top of QTS, Dual-Core CPU w. 2GB RAM, Easy setup and configuration, Millions of apps and games available through QNAP and Google, HDMI, USB 3.0, and SD Card slot, Compact and tool-less, Included IR remote control,
CPU might be on the low end for demanding Android apps such as AAA games, “QNAP’s TAS-268 fills a void with it’s unique combination of a NAS and an Android set top box in one device. That amount of functionality out of the box isn’t something that we have
PricingAt the time of writing, the QNAP TAS-268 can be yours for just $204.99 at NewEgg, £222.94 at Overclockers UK, or €199.34 through Geizhals.OverviewWe've seen more than one NAS with unique features and shapes from QNAP and the TAS-268 continues down...
As far as build quality and design goes, we have no issues with the TAS-268. Qnap have created a solid little NAS and while we are never fans of a glossy finish on devices like this (they just gather dust) the black and white design is pretty cool. The ve...
