Qnap: QGenie 7-in-1 Mobile NAS

QNAP Systems, Inc. announced QGenie, a pocket-sized 7-in-1 mobile NAS for file storage, power bank, Internet sharing, and more.

With its design, it fits in the pocket yet provides functions to meet users’ day-to-day mobile needs.

It offers a mobile NAS solution to wirelessly extend the storage space of mobile devices. Users can optimize their storage space by transferring files to it when they need to make room for more photos, music, and apps. Users can enjoy the convenience by using the myQNAPcloud service, Qsync, and Qfile mobile app, to create a personal cloud to save, access, sync, and share all the files stored on QGenie on the go.

“QGenie allows connections from up to 20 users, enables simultaneous file access by up to 8 users, and is perfect for sharing multimedia when traveling in a vehicle and large files in various occasions such as social gatherings, class seminars, and business meetings without the need of sending emails or exchanging USB drives,” said Hanz Sung, product manager, QNAP.

QGenie also allows users to backup and retrieve their phonebooks from Android and iOS devices by using Qfile mobile app, protecting their data from loss. It is also made for saving users from manually entering all the names and numbers of their contacts into new phones.

With a built-in 3000mAh power capacity, a fully-charged device can work for more than 10 hours, more than enough for an average day’s usage. It can also act as a power bank for charging mobile devices with circuit protection mechanisms, and provides a wireless access point for sharing Internet access with multiple devices through wired or Wi-Fi connections, smartphone hotspot, or an LTE/4G/3G dongle.

When connected to a PC or Mac via USB 3.0, it automatically turns into a portable SSD for fast file transfer of up to 120MB/s read and 40MB/s write speeds.

It can also work with the Turbo NAS as a satellite device. Users can copy files from the Turbo NAS to QGenie or the other way around with the USB one-touch-copy function, and enjoy access to all files via the Qfile mobile app. The OLED display shows a view of the current system status, including storage capacity, battery power, wireless connections, and more.

It is compatible with Windows, Mac, iOS and Android devices, offering high flexibility in file exchange and sharing.
