Running AI on the QNAP TVS-672XT
Yes, it runs AI models on the NAS itself. Models run on its CPU cores, and this configuration leaves about 54.4 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
| App | How it installs |
|---|---|
| Ollama + Open WebUI | In a container (Docker) |
| Ollama / Open WebUI or any other LLM server image | In a container (Docker) |
| Any Linux VM running an LLM runtime | In a virtual machine |
AI features from QNAP
| Feature | What it does | Where the AI runs |
|---|---|---|
| Qsirch RAG Search (cloud LLM mode) | Natural-language search and Q&A over NAS files; retrieval runs on the NAS but the LLM is a cloud API (Gemini, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI or OpenAI-compatible). | Cloud service or another computer |
