This sleek enclosure measures just 241mm in depth, making it 50% shorter than traditional chassis. Weighing a mere 3.2kg, the D4-320U fits effortlessly into standard server racks without requiring rails, simplifying installation process for users.
Impressive 88TB Storage Capacity
The D4-320U is designed to support up to four drives, boasting a staggering maximum capacity of 88TB.

Even with a single 1TB WD Red SSD, users can experience impressive read speeds reaching 510MB/s, making this enclosure the perfect choice for performance-driven environments.
Expandable NAS Integration
Engineered to work seamlessly with TerraMaster NAS devices that run TOS 5.1 or higher, the D4-320U connects via USB to bolster storage pools and create arrays through the sophisticated TOS system. This capability allows users to effortlessly scale their NAS capacity, enhancing productivity and enabling higher data availability.
