Review on 🔒 Asustor Lockerstor 10 AS6510T: High-Performance 10-Bay NAS with 10GbE and 2.5GbE Ports, NVMe SSD Slots, and 8GB DDR4 RAM by Jimmy Bores

So far everything has been plug and play. Easy one-click integration with apps on my phone, Google Gmail integration, and apps on my Windows clients. Two NVME cards ($80 each here at AMZN) and an additional 8GB flash drive ($20) were added, and yes, it's a very fast machine. Running two RAID arrays, one for storage, one for backup, and then a 1TB SSD for OS and applications. Connected to 10GBE ports via a new switch (XGS1010-12-ZZ0101F) and my main windows client is connected via 2.5GBE. Applications are ok. Great for torrents, plexes, remote file servers, mail servers, home automation, etc. Everything works as advertised. I would like to point out that if you are new to the Linux world you should try PuTTy so you can use command lines from a remote machine, learn more about Portainer and Docker (youtube) and download WinSCP as a way, access files remotely. Also, consider running the VPN service from a device (that's native to the operating system) so you can connect to it securely when you're not on your home network. The only gripe I have is that Atom-based processors are heavily weighted. It took me several days to set up my Plex library which is probably 5x longer than a high end PC. As far as I know, Asustor recently released a XEON processor version of this machine that many people might find useful. The machine isn't slow, but certainly not the kind I'm used to running Plex on my PC. I wish I could do this update.
