Running AI on the QNAP TS-877XU
Yes, it runs AI models on the NAS itself. Models run on its CPU cores, and this configuration leaves about 26.2 GB for them after the NAS system and its storage services. The grades below assume the NAS isn’t busy with backups or media work at the same time. More memory is the upgrade that matters most: see the configurations.
Apps you can install to run models

AI features from QNAP
| Feature | What it does | Where the AI runs |
|---|---|---|
| QuMagie + QNAP AI Core | Photo management with on-device face, object and scene recognition (QNAP AI Core image-recognition engine). | On the NAS |
| Qsirch AI Semantic Search | Natural-language/semantic file and image search computed locally; QNAP requires a 64-bit x86 NAS with at least 8 GB RAM. | On the NAS |
| Qsirch RAG Search (cloud LLM mode) | Chat with NAS files using a cloud LLM (Gemini, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI or OpenAI-compatible API); the model runs remotely. | Cloud service or another computer |
| Qsirch on-premises RAG / LLM Core | Runs open models (DeepSeek R1, Gemma 3, gpt-oss 20B, Mistral 7B, Phi-4) locally for RAG search. Requires an NVIDIA GPU assigned to Container Station; QNAP states CPU-only is not supported. Needs QuTS hero h5.2.1+ and Qsirch 6.0.0+. | On the NAS |
| QuAgent (beta) + AI Service Center (beta) | Conversational NAS assistant on QTS 6.1 / QuTS hero h6.1; uses either a cloud model or an on-premises model (compatible GPU recommended). QNAP lists x86 NAS "x74 series and above", TVS-AI and QAI series as supported. | On the NAS |
