  • Give me full ATX with 15 sata ports and I would bite. 10 HDD and 5 caching ssds. I would prefer full axt because with that many drives I would need a full case so might as well use a full board.

  • I've been putting off building a new NAS for (going on) 3 years now. Power draw was a concern since I've been trying to downsize and become more efficient with each refresh cycle. This looks really promising, and I love that it has two 2.5 Gb ethernet ports on board.

    Edit: The press release says 3x 2.5 Gb ports but the Amazon listing only says 2 Povoq's right. The Realtek is the third. The way it's listed in the Amazon description just made it hard to find. Either way, that's plenty for my use case.

    • The Realtek one might be only 1gbit, but I agree it doesn't really matter.

      If you order one let me know how it goes as I am also mildly interested, but for now I don't really need it.

      • Will do!

        I'm still trying to decide if I want to build a pure NAS with a board like this or go for something more powerful that can also handle transcoding and run my media server. Currently, I'm about 60% in favor of a pure, lower power NAS and keeping my media server separate (like my current configuration).

        I really do need to make a decision soon, lol, as I'm very close to capacity on my current storage.
