What reviewers say

Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.

QNAP TS-464

Only one whitelisted lab tester, StorageReview, published a hands-on benchmark of the exact QNAP TS-464 (Oct 2022). It measured the four-bay NAS meeting or beating the older TS-453D on SMB throughput and calls it a great value at $549 diskless, while noting that some gains are marginal and 128K sequential reads actually came in lower than the prior model in the test config. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)

Praised: Beats the older TS-453D on SMB read/write throughput in lab benchmarks; Strong value at the $549 diskless base price for SMB and home users; Expandable: two M.2 NVMe Gen3 slots, PCIe Gen3 x2, up to 16GB RAM, dual 2.5GbE.

Flagged: 128K sequential reads came in 6.8% lower than the TS-453D in the test config; Some measured performance gains over the prior model are only marginal; Ships diskless with just 4GB RAM at the base configuration.

Ubiquiti UniFi UNAS Pro

StorageReview is the only whitelisted outlet with a hands-on lab review of the exact 7-bay Ubiquiti UNAS Pro. Their CrystalDiskMark testing over a 10GbE link across RAID 5/6/10 praised the $499 price and consistent, balanced RAID10 throughput but flagged a limited third-party app ecosystem versus rival NAS platforms. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)

Praised: Affordable $499 price for a 7-bay mid-size NAS; Balanced, consistent performance across RAID configs (RAID10 strongest); User-friendly UniFi Drive interface with 1GbE and 10GbE connectivity.

Flagged: Limited third-party app ecosystem versus rival NAS platforms.
