Read Rohit's full main site review of the QNAP QGD-1600P here with a lot more detail: https://www.servethehome.com/our-switchnaserver-or-qnap-qgd-1600p-review/
We take a look at the QNAP QGD-1600P which we are calling the "SwitchNAServer". This is simply because we get a 16-port PoE+ and PoE++ switch, a QNAP QTS NAS, and server functionality all in a single box. We have many readers who have tried to build their own over the years. This is a pre-configured unit that has solid software behind it and engineering that one may not have thought of.
In our overview, we go into the hardware, and some of the extra testing we did, such as finding that the unit supports more memory than the official specs state. Again, check out the STH main site for a more complete review.
