ASUSTOR Announces Lockerstor 10 Pro NAS with ECC Memory and Xeon Processor

[btarunr]

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 3.40 GHz and turbos to 4.60 GHz, 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 7.5 Gbps 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.



The Lockerstor 10 Pro provides multi-level protection and Btrfs snapshot security along with enterprise features and hardware. Some of these features include compatibility with VMware, Citrix, and Hyper-V storage environments. The Lockerstor 10 Pro also supports iSCSI, IP-SAN and NFS storage devices, enabling greater integration into existing IT environments. The Lockerstor 10 Pro continues ASUSTOR's proud tradition maximizing compatibility by supporting most operating systems, including, but not limited to Windows, macOS and Linux for desktops as well as Android and iOS smartphones and tablets. The CPU inside the Lockerstor 10 Pro makes virtual machines run even faster and is better able to run more virtual machines and Docker apps simultaneously. The Lockerstor 10 Pro multitasks like never before on a NAS and is able to easily multiple server instructions at the same time. For those who demand the most of their mass storage devices, the Lockerstor 10 Pro is the NAS for you.

A little disappointing they did not go with dual 10Gbe and dual 2.5Gbe like the As6510T. Since 2014 I been running a As7010T which did not have 10Gbe out of box but supported adding a dual 10Gbe card which I did. I don't believe there any option on this nas for dual 10Gbe. This nas is sorta the successor of my the As7010T so would of been nice if it had that option.

Yeah,...

It is interesting that when one is looking for a NAS one rarely if ever finds all the features that one is looking for. The new AS-7110T looks to check all or nearly all the boxes for me though. I’m not sure it has an expansion port though and it’s very unlikely it has any HDMI / video out since it uses a Xeon rather then an i3 or i5 like the AS-7010T.

Price would have been nice. Given that the AS-7010T was around ~$1400 USD the boosted specs of the AS-7110T (Xeon, ECC) one would expect a higher MSRP of something closer to ~$1800 to ~$2000 USD.
