Sitting under QNAP's SMB banner, the TS-877 series of NAS units are the first based on AMD's Ryzen technology to hit the market. Based around a Ryzen 7 1700 8-core or Ryzen 5 1600 6-core chip, the TS-877 are highly flexible 8-bay NAS units supporting three PCIe slots and a pair of internal SATA M.2 slots for SSD caching duties. It even supports the option of a dedicated graphics card.

The TS-877 product line is a complex affair despite the fact there are only three bay sizes. The eight bay TS-877 sits in the middle of a three unit product line, consisting of the flagship TS-1277 twelve bay model and the TS-677, six bay entry model. The complex bit is the multitude of CPU / memory options.

The flagship TS-1277 has three different models; TS-1277-1700-64G (AMD Ryzen 7 1700 8-core, 64GB DDR4), TS-1277-1700-16G (AMD Ryzen 7 1700, 16GB DDR4) and the TS-1277-1600-8G (AMD Ryzen 5 1600 6-core CPU with 8GB DDR4). The TS-877 line up is a little less complicated, the TS-877-1700-16G (our review system) – AMD Ryzen 7 1700, 16GB DDR4 and the TS-877-1600-8G (AMD Ryzen 5 1600 and 8GB DDR4). The entry level TS-677 comes in just flavour, powered by an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 backed by 8GB DDR4.

Apart from the eight main storage bays there are a pair of 2.5in drive bays (built into the upper part of the front bezel) as well as a pair of M.2 SATA (2240/2260/2280/22110) ports on the motherboard which support SSD Cache Acceleration. For expansion purposes there are three, yes three PCIe slots; 1 x PCIe 3.0 x8, 1 x PCIe 3.0 x4 and 1 x PCIe 2.0 x4.
