Running AI on the QNAP TS-h1090FU
Yes, it runs AI models on the NAS itself. Models run on its CPU cores, and this configuration leaves about 471 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 | In a container (Docker) |
| Open WebUI | In a container (Docker) |
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 |
