With a price tag of just over £700 (around $1,180, AU$1,270) before taxes and without any disks, the QNAP TS-470 is a far from cheap four-bay NAS appliance, very much aimed at the small business rather than home user market. Even then it's expensive and f...

It's hard to argue against the QNAP TS-470 as a fast and very functional small business NAS appliance with storage expansion and networking options more usually associated with enterprise products. Unfortunately these add further to the already high pric...

Armed with a Sandy Bridge-based Celeron CPU, QNAP's TS-470 handles the traffic from four gigabit Ethernet connections. Or, with the addition of a 10 GbE upgrade card, it can be made to push well over 1 GB/s, providing you use the right storage. Most sma...
QNAP's TS-470 is a solid performer with plenty of features. But the main reason you'd want to spend the money on it would probably be its four gigabit Ethernet ports and expandability to 10 Gb Ethernet somewhere down the road. Naturally, you're not go...

The Qnap TS-470 is as expensive as 4-bay NAS appliances come. The high-end price pays for high-end features, however, and Qnap justifies the expense with quad Gigabit ports, support for 10GbE≈upgrades, SSD read caching and immense capacity expansion poten...

The design of the QNAP TS-470 looks exactly like that of the other QNAP NAS devices we've tested, but looks can be deceiving. Inside, a 2.6 GHz processor is churning away, and with no less than four gigabit ethernet ports this is a NAS powerhouse. We...
