The QNAP TL-D400S is a high-performance JBOD storage enclosure designed to expand and safeguard your data by directly attaching four 3.5-inch SATA drives to your existing storage infrastructure. With a Mini-SAS host interface and a bundled QXP PCIe card, this tower enables fast, reliable expansion for QNAP NAS systems, as well as Windows and Ubuntu servers. Built for robust backup and scalable storage, the TL-D400S provides a streamlined solution for growing archives, media libraries, and business data without sacrificing performance or compatibility.

  • The TL-D400S delivers scalable, four-bay expansion with 3.5-inch SATA hard drives or SSDs (SATA 6Gb/s) to bolster storage capacity for QNAP NAS, Windows, and Ubuntu environments. Its JBOD design focuses on maximizing usable space for backups, archives, and large media collections, while maintaining straightforward integration with your existing server room or office setup.
  • Equipped with a QXP PCIe card that unlocks a fast Mini-SAS connection, the enclosure can be linked to your host via an SFF-8088 or SFF-8644 cable. This configuration optimizes throughput and bandwidth between the host system and the four drives, enabling efficient data transfer for large file transfers, backups, and multi-user access across the network.
  • Flexible cross-compatibility across platforms means the TL-D400S supports QNAP NAS devices, Windows servers, and Ubuntu servers. Whether you are expanding a network-attached storage solution, enhancing a business server, or providing bulk storage for media editing workflows, the TL-D400S is engineered for dependable performance in mixed environments.
  • Designed to simplify deployment, the TL-D400S integrates cleanly into existing storage architectures. Its four drive bays offer straightforward capacity expansion without complex reconfigurations, enabling you to add capacity as your data grows. The enclosure is built to keep drives easily accessible for maintenance and upgrades while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for data centers or small offices.
  • For data reliability and operational efficiency, this enclosure is positioned as a dependable expansion unit—ideal for backup strategies, disaster recovery planning, and long-term archival storage. By offloading data growth from primary NAS or servers, the TL-D400S helps protect critical information while keeping your active storage footprint manageable.

How to install TL-D400S

  • Power down the host system and ensure you have a suitable power source for the TL-D400S and all connected devices.
  • Install up to four SATA drives into the 3.5-inch bays of the TL-D400S. Ensure drives are properly seated and secured in their trays or mounting hardware.
  • Insert the QXP PCIe card into an available PCIe slot on your host computer or compatible NAS expansion slot. Confirm the card is firmly seated and secured.
  • Connect the QXP PCIe card to the TL-D400S using a suitable Mini-SAS cable (SFF-8088 or SFF-8644) according to your hardware’s compatibility requirements.
  • Connect the other end of the Mini-SAS cable to the host’s storage controller port. Power on the host system and the TL-D400S enclosure.
  • In your operating system (QNAP interface, Windows Disk Management, or Linux disk utility), initialize and format the new drives as needed. Create a storage pool or volumes according to your data management strategy (backup, archival, or general storage).
  • Test the connection by moving a few large files to and from the TL-D400S to ensure stable transfer rates and drive accessibility before scaling up your data transfer or backup workloads.

Frequently asked questions

A serious read about a very relevant, non-fiction topic... not a light hearted read.
Format: Kindle
A serious non-fiction, not a leisurely novel... very detailed, lots of research went into this, and a lot to be learned from reading thru it.. an excellent education of all that leads up to our Supreme Court,... and serious relevance to the 60’s, 70’s, up to now.... for many women.

Entertaining read
Format: Kindle
I wanted to educate myself on some of the issues that are presented in this book. If you're looking for just factual case-law and supreme court decisions this is not the book you're looking for. This book presents the cases in a story and gives a lot of detail about what went on in the lives of the people involved in these lawsuits outside of the courtroom. The only thing that I wish would have been talked about in greater detail would be a more in-depth look at the opinions and reasons from the justices that were not voting in favor of the plaintiffs.

Excellent Details
Format: Kindle
If you're like me, you've probably either never heard of these cases or heard about them in only the broadest of strokes. For remedying that, this book is excellent. Thomas provides a detailed account of how these complaints came to be, how they wended their way through the cases, and why they are important in terms of outcome and legal precedent. This is a book that I'm glad to have read and one that I would highly recommend to others.

engrossing, revealing, shocking, fascinating -- 10 gritty women who won big cases at great personal loss
Format: Kindle
Thankfully, women no longer have to pay more for retirement plans, and get lower payouts, than men. Amazing how many different, inventive the ways were in the 1960's to keep women out of jobs. Bless Title VII and the attorneys and clients who fought these battles; we stand on their shoulders. The saddest part is the update, at the end of the book showing how protections against gender discrimination in the workplace have weakened in recent years. In particular, it has become difficult, or nearly impossible, to prove that a hostile work environment exists so long as employers pay lip service to certain ideas and practices and hide what's really going on--which we working women KNOW still goes on, unfortunately.

Entertaining, personal history of landmark cases
Format: Hardcover
Amazing look behind the scenes at the people (plaintiffs and lawyers) who made equality for women at work a reality. Compelling, heartwarming, and educational - should be required reading for anyone who holds a job in 21st century America - both to learn how far we've come and to see the ways in which we need to continue the fight for equality at work.
