Lots of storage space with many connections.

Lots of storage space
Fast cache memory
Multiple Ethernet ports
Plastic housing feels rough

The Asustor NIMBUSTOR 4 Gen2 AS5404T is a compact NAS with a lot of storage space and fast working memory. This allows me to store a lot of files and work with multiple people on the NAS at the same time. Placing the bays is a bit stiff due to the plastic housing, but once they are fixed they work fine with a hard drive in it.

Storage and connections Because this NAS has room for 4 2.5 inch SSDs, 3.5 inch HDDs or M.2 NVMe SSDs, I can easily store all my large files. Unfortunately, no hard drives are included, but this allows me to determine how much storage space I want. I store multiple 4K films, photo albums or important work files with the AS5404T. Thanks to the 4 gigabytes of RAM, I can open many files at the same time, even when working with colleagues or friends with the NAS. This makes multitasking no problem. Even when I transfer large folders with photos or videos at once, it works well or makes no noise.

Connections This NAS also has an HDMI 2.0 port, which I use to connect this external server to my laptop or television to watch films or series. In addition, the NAS has 2 built-in 2.5 Gbit Ethernet ports. This gives me a fast internet connection, even if one fails. Through the 2 USB connections, I can connect peripherals for making backups with an external hard drive or connect a printer to the NAS.

Easy to use Installing this NAS is easy, because you only need 2 cables to connect it. Both the power cable and 2 internet cables are included in the box. I can connect the NAS without any problems to the Asustor AiMaster app on my smartphone or the Asustor Control Center on my computer and get started right away. The bays are firmly attached behind a magnetic front plate, which prevents dust from entering. Taking the bays out of the case feels a bit awkward, because you have to pull hard on the plastic. Despite that, placing a drive in the bays is not difficult and it works immediately.

Perfect NAA

Very extensive possibilities
Perfect support by Asustor
Nice appearance
Requires some study to set up, especially as a non-professional

Works perfectly with Apple, unprecedented many possibilities and therefore sometimes a lot of figuring out. Asustor offers very good and clear support in Dutch via site.

Fantastic value for money

Well priced
4 HDD bays + 4 SSD bays
Good performance
First-party apps not as good as Synology

I wanted something to safely hold backups of my PCs and as a repository for my family photos. Basic file sharing is handled very well. In addition, I can run apps like Photoprism in Docker to expand the usefulness of the device.
