QNAP BRKT-RISER-2P-2U

Overview

The QNAP BRKT-RISER-2P-2U is a PCIe 3.0 riser card module designed to expand the capabilities of the TS-x73AU NAS chassis by converting a single PCIe 3.0 x8 slot into two PCIe 3.0 x4 slots. This allows you to add more network or storage cards without modifying the chassis or overall setup. It fits short-depth 2U rackmount systems, making it a practical upgrade for environments where space is limited but additional expansion is needed.

By maintaining high-speed data transfer through the PCIe 3.0 interface, this riser card supports enhanced connectivity and storage options, making it a strong choice for IT professionals and businesses aiming to improve their rack-based NAS systems without increasing the hardware footprint.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
