Drive Compatibility

The ES NAS series can accommodate solid-state drives (SSD), and traditional magnetic disk drives (HDD)

[Note 1]. Both 3.5 inch and 2.5 inch drives can be installed. The ES NAS natively supports Serial Attached

SCSI (SAS) drives.

Drive Installation

The ES NAS series supports the following disk drive configurations:

All SSD: SSDs are the best choice for I/O intensive workloads and business-critical storage.

Hybrid: The ES NAS allows you to mix SSDs and HDDs in one storage system, to help balance

cost and performance. In additional to high IOPs, the ES NAS also supports creating an SSD read

cache to further increase storage performance. This configuration is especially suitable for

virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) and web servers.

All HDD: Using all hard disk drives offers the best price and capacity. This configuration is

suitable for storing cold data that is not accessed frequently, and for applications that require

sequential data access, such as video editing and surveillance.

The ES NAS will use drive bays 1 to 4 to store the system configuration, QNAP recommends drive bays 5

to 16 for data storage. This setup prevents data storage operations interfering with the basic operation

of the NAS system. It also means that the disks used for data storage can be easily migrated to another

NAS.

When using a mixture of SSDs and HDDs, installing the SSDs into drive bays 1 to 4 is recommended.

[Note 1]: Check the compatibility link below for compatible disks. The System may have problems or

errors if disks not on the list are installed:

Connecting the ES NAS to a Network

The ES NAS has two types of network ports:

Data ports (shown as blue in the diagram below) are used for accessing data stored on the NAS,

using protocols like iSCSI, NFS, and CIFS.

Management ports (shown as red in the diagram below) are for managing the NAS via QES

desktop.

In an environment without DHCP, connect a PC directly to a NAS management port. Then open a web

browser and enter the default QES IP: 169.254.100.100.

Powering on the NAS for the First Time

Power on the ES NAS by pressing the power-on button on the left front panel.

Note: To ensure power availability, installing two power supplies each connected with a separate power

cable is recommended.

System start-up will take from 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the number of disks and the devices

connected to the ES NAS.

The LEDs on the rear of the ES NAS and the LCD status display on the left front panel can both be used to

check the status of power on. All storage and management services are disabled while the ES NAS is

powering on.

Start-up is finished when the left three of the four LEDs on the rear of the ES NAS turn green. There are

two sets of LEDs, one for each storage controller.

Connecting to the ES NAS with Qfinder Pro

Qfinder Pro is a QNAP utility that enables you to quickly search and manage your NAS. Using Qfinder Pro,

you don’t need to memorize the IP addresses of QNAP NAS in your LAN. NAS in the same subnet as the

client running Qfinder will be detected automatically.

Downloading and installing Qfinder Pro

Download Qfinder Pro for your operating system at https://www.qnap.com/i/en/utility. Download and

then install it:

1. Run the QNAP Qfinder. If the QNAP Qfinder is blocked by your firewall, unblock it first.

2. Select the installation language. It is recommended to close all other running programs before

you proceed.

3. Read the license agreement, check “I accept the terms of the License Agreement,” and click

“Next”.

4. Select if you would like to create Desktop Shortcuts or Quick Launch Shortcuts. Then click “Next”.

5. Choose the Installation location and click “Next”.

6. Click “Finish” to finish the installation.

Setting up the ES NAS with a Static IP

1. Run Qfinder Pro.

Qfinder automatically searches for QNAP NAS on your local network.

Note: The Qfinder client and NAS must be on the same subnet.

2. Locate IP address 169.254.100.100 in the Qfinder device list. This device the new ES NAS. The

status shows “?”, meaning that the ES NAS hasn’t been configured before.

Note: If both management ports and the Qfinder client PC are connected using a switch, then

Qfinder will also show a second new device 169.254.100.101. This is the IP address of the

second management port and storage controller.

3. Configure the PC network settings to be in the same range as the ES NAS. Using a PC with

Windows Server 2012 R2 as an example:

a. Go to “Control Panel”> “Network and Internet”:

b. Click “Network and Sharing Center”.

c. Select the network interface connected to the ES NAS Management port. In this

example it is called “Internal”.
