The Asustor AS6504RS Lockerstor 4RS is a high-performance 4-bay NAS (Network Attached Storage) enclosure designed to provide efficient storage and data management solutions for both home and business users. Here’s an in-depth description of its key features:

Key Features:

1. 4-Bay Storage:
   • The AS6504RS has 4 drive bays that support 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch SATA hard drives or SSDs. You can configure the device with multiple hard drives for large storage capacity and redundancy, supporting RAID configurations such as RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, and JBOD for flexible data protection.
2. Intel Celeron Quad-Core Processor:
   • Powered by an Intel Celeron J4125 quad-core processor (up to 2.7 GHz), the AS6504RS offers a good balance of performance and energy efficiency, suitable for handling high-speed file transfers, media streaming, and light virtualization workloads.
3. Memory:
   • The device is equipped with 4GB of DDR4 RAM (upgradeable to 8GB), ensuring smooth multitasking and the ability to handle memory-intensive applications and services like virtualization, media management, and backup tasks.
4. 10GbE Network Connectivity:
   • The NAS comes with two 10GbE (10 Gigabit Ethernet) ports for extremely fast network speeds, providing quicker data transfer and better support for demanding tasks such as 4K video editing, backups, and large-scale data sharing.
5. High-Speed Data Transfer:
   • In addition to the 10GbE ports, the AS6504RS also has USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports for high-speed file transfers with external drives and devices. This enables the NAS to act as a central hub for both local and remote data access.
6. M.2 NVMe SSD Slots:
   • The device includes two M.2 NVMe SSD slots for cache acceleration, which significantly enhances read/write performance, especially for frequently accessed data. This improves the overall speed of the NAS, particularly during heavy workloads.
7. ASUSTOR Data Master (ADM) OS:
   • The NAS runs on ASUSTOR Data Master (ADM), an intuitive, user-friendly operating system that offers a range of apps and services for file management, backups, cloud syncing, multimedia, and security. ADM also supports remote access, so you can access your files from anywhere using the mobile app or web portal.
