TS-653B is picking the “goodies” from the previous model NASes such as the USB QuickAccess (now with USB-C bus) or the frontal display, which does feature an easy to read OLED panel. The display does feature additional information such as system fan speed, temperatures, HDD capacity, volumes or LUN; the capacitive buttons are easy accessible and can perform different commands, including system restart of shutdown. For doing easy backups of different media, we do have a SD card reader right in front of the unit, along with a separate USB 3.0 port. For connecting extra storage, printers or a Wi-Fi dongle, we can always make use of the four USB 3.0 ports in the back. The unit does also support USB RAID expansion enclosures for five or eight drives, we can use M.2 SSD/10GbE PCIe combo expansion cards, while the dual microphone input jacks can be used for Karaoke.
