TerraMaster TOS 6 Beta is Released, You Can Try on Your TerraMaster NAS Now!

 Exciting news for TerraMaster NAS users! The highly anticipated TOS 6 Public Beta is now available for select NAS devices, offering a slew of improvements aimed at enhancing user experience, speed, and security.


Key Highlights:

  • Redesigned Interface: TOS 6 introduces a sleek and streamlined web interface, clearing clutter and making files, apps, and settings more accessible. Desktop icons have been replaced with a new navigation bar, while a new "Start" button, reminiscent of Windows Start menu, provides easy access to recently-used apps and power options.
  • Enhanced File Explorer: The TOS file explorer now supports tabs and displays image thumbnails, making browsing through photos a breeze.
  • Improved Speed and Security: Powered by Linux Kernel 6.1 LTS, TOS 6 brings significant speed and security enhancements. Multi-Gen LRU, RAM optimization, and a more reliable Btrfs file system contribute to improved performance, while robust permissions menus and executable program controls bolster security. Additionally, SMB Multichannel function promises quicker transfer speeds for devices with multiple LAN ports.
  • Flexible Disk Installation: Users can now install System Disk data on their preferred disks, providing more flexibility in storage configuration.
  • Beta Considerations: As with all beta software, TOS 6 Beta may contain defects and is not recommended for critical data storage. Some settings may be wiped and need reconfiguration. Docker users should update the Docker app before transitioning to TOS 6.
