QNAP TS-364-4G 3-bay NAS Review

We tested the peak power consumption of a NAS at the wall during a run of CrystalDiskMark 7.0.0. as this version of the benchmark runs the read and write benchmark suites separately so its easier to monitor what power the device is using during each function.

The lntel Celeron N5105 quad-core processor that powers the TS-364 has a 10W TDP. QNAP quote a typical operating power consumption figure of 32.8W for the TS-364. To test the unit we used three 6TB WD Red drives (WD60EFRX) which are rated at 5.3W (active read/write), 3.4W (idle) and 0.4W sleep which gave figures in the ballpark of the official ratings.
