QNAP has announced the launch of the TS-432XeU, a short-depth 1U NAS server designed for wall-mounted cabinets, support vehicles, or small audiovisual rooms. The device features a compact chassis with a depth of only 292.1 mm.

Technical specifications include an AnnapurnaLabs AL324 quad-core 64-bit ARM processor running at 1.7 GHz and 4 GB of non-ECC RAM, which is expandable up to 16 GB. The unit provides four bays for 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch SATA HDDs or SSDs.

Connectivity options consist of one 10GbE SFP+ port and two 2.5GbE RJ45 ports, supporting technologies such as port trunking and SMB Multichannel to increase bandwidth for heavy file transfers. The system also includes four USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and can be expanded using external JBOD enclosures, such as the TL-R1200C-RP.
