QNAPTR-002-A-US 2 Bay USB Type-C Direct Attached Storage (DAS) with Hardware RAID (Diskless)

Q: How many 4tb disks does tr-004-44r-us include?

None. It's the RAID controller and enclosure only. you buy the disks separately in the size of your choosing. I recommend that you use one of the following models: WD Red, WD Gold , WD Purple, Seagate Ironwolf, or Seagate Skyhawk. These drives are made for use in RAID arrays, and will give you far fewer issues with the array loosing sync and having to rebuild. I'm using WD Red drives in a RAID 5 configuration in mine and love them. I've had the array up and running for almost a year and have never had any problems at all. Make sure to use 4 drives of the same size, make, and model for best performance and reliability.

Q: Is it possible to password protect this device?

Not native to the device. It is just an external USB drive array. It can be managed from a QNAP NAS and you can password protect data from within the app, but you cannot password protect the actual drive itself.

Q: I can leave this turn on 24/7 like any other nas like synology units? note: i know this is a das not a nas

I don't have this model, but yes to your answer. You can leave it on 24/7/365 if you want. whatever you have it connected to will control it and put it in sleep mode when not in use.

Q: 1. Can I plug this into my pc to expand its storage? 2. Can I use this with a c to usb adapter as my pc does not have a c slot

1. Yes. You might/probably need to download their management software 2. Don't need an adapter because the PC connection is via a common USB type A plug. The "C" end plugs into the device. It's kind of short though.
