All this means that the TS-x31K series provides accomplished data storage, sharing, backup, synchronization, and data protection.

The QNAP TS-x31K series is available in various configurations including 1-bay2-bay and 4-bay models with one, two and two GbE ports respectively. Tool-less and lockable drive bays in the TS-x31K series makes installation a breeze and ensures that drives are secure and safe. Users can backup data from their Windows PC or Mac devices and further protect their backup using HBS (Hybrid Backup Sync) to save the data to another NAS or cloud storage.

QNAP TS-x31K series also includes a wide range of multimedia applications, allowing users to easily manage and view their important media collection via programs such as Photo Station, Video Station and Music Station. The device can also be transformed into a Plex Media server or be used as a Surveillance Station in your home surveillance security system.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
