The Best Budget All Flash NAS? UnRAID Powered LincStation N1

“Digital Spaceport”

The LincStation N1 is a micro sized, all-flash NAS that we are testing and reviewing today. We’ll unbox it, touching on the surprisingly decent Celeron N5150 CPU, 16GB of DDR4 RAM, and the zippy 2.5Gbps network connection. Not to mention, we’ll also provide a critical view on some of its…

  1. U.3 in 30 or 60TB exist but are unobtainable for common mortals, one tiny system with four of them in raid would be a beast, or at least two of them in mirror in a small minipc workstation…..we only have to wait for price wars…five years? less?

  2. I would love an off the shelf unit like this that has A. direct to cpu pcie 4x lanes to each m.2 slot B. at LEAST a 10g nic (preferably dual port, or heck, just give me a 16x pcie card based solution so we can swap that out later in case someone wants to upgrade to 40gb qsfp so this thing can really cook). the issue is that would require a cpu with way more pcie bandwidth, probably something like epyc embedded would do the trick, but it would make something like this quite a bit more expensive. I'd also like to see expandable memory up to at least 64gb in order to make use of apps/docker on a system like this. something like this could be a heck of a small performant database server for example.

  3. if you're going to do an all-flash nas, the point is clearly filesystem and share performance (for things like video editing or other needs where speed is paramount), the 2.5gb nics shoot itself in the foot. a flash nas should have at LEAST 10g onboard (either 10g base-t or sfp+). I'm honestly not sure why there would be onboard wifi, that seems super weird given this thing should be dropped on a shelf and connected to wired networking in order to maximize speed.

  4. Hey dude love this video. That cpu doesn't have enough PCIe for everything that's packed into it. Commenting at the spot where you are installing the nvmes but that's an obvious issue here.

    A faster CPU would let them sell a less complex device, because there is obviously some PCIe switching going on here
