    Lol, I don't need any of the products you review but I keep coming back because you are great entertainment. Always positive vibes, always current information, always excellent advice to the consumer. Thank you.
  • @ASUSTOR_YT
    0:37 You caught us in our plot to compete against Synology! Red handed!
  • @DarkfireTS
    been watching your channel more and more, thanks for keeping eyes on all things NAS for us! truly the most helpful channel when it comes to considering the numerous variables and use-cases, so thank you for your efforts!
  • @fabriglas
    I watched the whole deal.. i want a nas thats low power , upgradable and well supported the opensource software is appealing
  • @eedoamitay3341
    You are a really great presenter, i enjoy hearing you talk haha and obviously learning about NAS and DAS's from you has been super informative, really appreciate this channel
  • @ajrfilm0110
    Amazing stuff!! Thanks a lot for this highlight to ring in the weekend, very much looking forward to the final specs, but this is quite promising already!
  • @markmonroe7330
    Excellent presentation. Thank you. Looking forward to some detailed testing on it. That said, with the PCIE4x1 and 12 of them, it needs to be able to fully saturate for both reads and writes the 10gb network ports and honestly both network ports since it has 2 of them. We are seeing a lot of these new devices with SSDs not really perform as you might expect over a 10gb port. Maybe this one will do it.
  • @carlharrison3637
    We just need 24TB M2s and I'll be smiling. Once its under £200 an M2 chip that is. Its good looking otherwise though, just 3k or so for a NAS and i'd be there but no quite yet.
  • I might actually buy one if they could make their NAS with the sides straight up and down and not all slanty and wonky.
  • @roymorrison1075
    I bought my Flashtor6 on your recomandations last year, absalutly love it to death. I use it as my every day driver, only fire up my Truenas servers on the weekend for my 1,2,3 backups. Excited for Asustor with there gen 2, as true compition in the NAS enviroment will only produce better quality products and cheaper prices. ( Keep the bigger NAS companys honest !! ) Thanks for the update.
  • @ElementX32
    Dude, I love your channel. Your charisma, energy, knowledge and you're straight to the point. I appreciate that you don't pontificate on the fluff. You're clearly my favorite and my go to for all things NAS'. Many blessings to you.
  • @Silentjackll
    Love the watch! I'm rocking a Casio OCW-T200. I enjoy your videos very much. I also just realized I haven't been subscribed. 😆
  • @kenhubalik2548
    My gen 1 Flashstor Pro was a huge night and day upgrade from the Drobo spinning disk NAS that I was running in my home for backup and serving media. I am not editing/rendering 8K video so not sure how much I need all that Gen 2 goodness but great to hear my favorite NAS of all time is getting an upgrade. :finger-red-number-one:
  • @vonEitzen
    FYI your 'Asustor Flashstor Gen 2 NAS News' post has this line in it: "That said, Asustor have shit a very clear and confident ‘first shot’ in the Flashstor Gen 2 and given the popularity, dominance and good will that was achieved with their Flashstor pipping everyone else to the post, it’s a very smart move to expand this series as soon as possible." ... The typo me giggle, so thanks for that. ;-)
  • @Druac
    THIS! I was hoping Gen 2 would come out before next Christmas. This is definitely something I am interested in. Was going down the DIY road for a flash nas...but Asustor comes through big time with this one!
  • @meibing4912
    Brillant upgrade - will get one myself. They fixed it all. Amazing.
  • @FragEightyfive
    I never got around to buying the first gen because it was always sold out or selling for 20-50% over MSRP. Now this comes out (hopefully by Q3) but flash storage costs 50% more than it did a year ago, which is wild.
