Qnap TL-R1200PES-RP-US 12 Bay 2U Short Depth Rackmount Server Chassis

SKU CH-JVSM-HD6MB MPN TL-R1200PES-RP-US

A 12-bay 2U short-depth rackmount JBOD that adds petabyte-scale SATA storage to compatible NAS via dual Mini-SAS HD SFF-8644 ports with redundant power

  • TypeType
  • Expands NAS storage to petabyte scale via PCIe SATA JBOD
  • Holds 12 x 3.5 SATA 6Gb/s drives for massive capacity
  • Redundant power supplies maintain uptime during power failure
  • depth 2U design fits shallow rack cabinets easily
  • Mini-SAS HD SFF-8644 in/out ports enable daisy-chain expansion

12-Bay 2U Short-Depth JBOD Enclosure

The Qnap TL-R1200PES-RP-US is a diskless 2U rackmount chassis that connects to a compatible QNAP NAS through a PCIe SATA JBOD link. It accepts twelve 3.5-inch SATA 6 Gb/s drives and uses redundant power supplies to keep the array running if one unit fails. The short-depth form factor lets it fit in shallow cabinets where full-depth servers cannot.

Expansion for QuTS hero or QTS NAS owners

This unit suits administrators who already run a QNAP NAS with QuTS hero or QTS and need raw capacity for archiving, backup, virtualization, surveillance or media libraries. It does not run its own operating system, so buyers who need a standalone file server should look at a different product class. Environments without a free PCIe expansion slot on the host NAS cannot use this enclosure.

Mini-SAS HD SFF-8644 dual-port connectivity

A single Mini-SAS HD (SFF-8644) cable pair carries both inbound and outbound lanes between the host controller and the enclosure. The link determines maximum drive count and aggregate bandwidth, so verifying that the NAS provides a matching port is the deciding factor before purchase.

Questions about this item

What host connection does the TL-R1200PES-RP-US need to function?

The chassis uses a Mini-SAS HD SFF-8644 port with one input and one output to link to a compatible QNAP NAS.

Will my existing 3.5-inch SATA 6Gb/s drives work in the 12-bay enclosure?

Yes, the unit accepts up to twelve 3.5-inch SATA 6Gb/s drives for direct capacity expansion.

How can I verify the redundant power supplies are active after installation?

Check the front-panel power LEDs; both should show steady illumination indicating each supply is delivering power.
