ASUSTOR has released the Lockerstor 10 Pro, a ten bay tower NAS for the most demanding of enterprise needs. The Lockerstor 10 Pro is equipped with the latest 9th generation of Intel Xeon processor.
The Xeon E-2224 features four cores clocked at 3.4GHz, enhancing multi-tasking apps, such as virtualization applications as well as helps increase transfer speeds on the Aquantia 10-Gigabit Ethernet port and triple 2.5-Gigabit Ethernet ports, creating a high-speed local network environment. Eight Gigabytes of DDR4 ECC RAM is included in every Lockerstor 10 Pro and the addition of ECC RAM helps make ADM more stable by correcting memory errors in real-time. Ten bays for hard drives plus dual M.2 NVMe slots for SSD caching create an environment of maximum storage as well as maximum speed, allowing the Lockerstor 10 Pro to perfectly combine efficient computing, storage capacity and enterprise applications for the best storage experience.
Taipei, Taiwan, 3 June 2020 - ASUSTOR today has officially announced the release of the ten bay Lockerstor 10 Pro sporting a 9th generation Intel Xeon Quad-Core processor. The Xeon E-2224 runs at 3.4Ghz and turbos to 4.6GHz, making everything faster than ever, especially transfer speeds, virtual machines and Docker apps. The Lockerstor 10 Pro comes with eight Gigabytes of DDR4-2666 ECC memory and supports up to thirty-two Gigabytes of RAM. The ECC RAM included with the NAS corrects memory errors in real-time and helps avoid data loss caused by memory corruption, keeping critical data safe.
In terms of transmission speed, the Lockerstor 10 Pro provides a single 10-Gigabit Ethernet connection as well as triple 2.5-Gigabit Ethernet ports. With the all-new Intel Xeon processor, Link Aggregation on the 2.5-Gigabit ports, up to 7.5Gbps of bandwidth can be achieved while the 10-Gigabit port brings the full 1.25 GB/s speeds. The Lockerstor 10 Pro also features dual M.2 SSD slots, which support a variety of m.2 form factors and thumbscrews for easy installation. With NVMe SSD caching, the performance of traditional HDD hard drives is quickly upgraded to SSD levels, bringing the best of both storage and speed. The Lockerstor 10 Pro also features USB 3.2 Gen2 which provides up to 10 Gbps of speed and supports up to 192 TB of extra capacity using the AS6004U for a total of 160+192 TB.

interested depending on price, does anyone know if you can install the "os" well the system files on one of the M.2 slots rather than use them as cache ?
I learned one thing with my QNAP, system files should be completely separated from the rest, if there's a problem or bad shutdown you do not want to rebuild a raid array with 10+Tb drives when it could be done only on a pair of m.2 or ssds
also a system on HDDs is a thing of the past I don't want that anymore, super slow boot and operations, we are in 2020 or what :/

Too much money for a locked system with inferior hardware compared to a DIY NAS based on Linux, BtrFS, more cores and more RAM. I can't see why I should buy or sell such a device. Too expensive and big for enthusiasts and too weak and too little support ( 4h NBD etc. ) for business use. Once it fails you wish you had a DIY NAS or a professional Dell/HP box with proper support. my 2 cents

The whole ideea of a ready built NAS is to run it with minimum effort and max support , where a DIY NAS runs with maximum effort and minimum support. Not many companies needs the hassle of building it and having a person to maintain/set up etc.. it is easier for them to just buy it in the spec they need , plug it in and run it with minimum effort also being assured that if something goes wrong its all taken care of.

when are they going to do the smart thing and start including a built in battery backup.
