Desktop NVMe NAS servers

Desktop (NVMe NAS)

— devices that have no bays for traditional 2.5"/3.5" drives and all storage is on M.2 format solid-state drives. Such NVMe NAS takes up minimal space, makes almost no noise, and delivers very high performance—it is convenient for virtualization, working with a large number of small files, network video editing, fast caching, and so on. Compared to conventional HDD NAS, these All-Flash/All SSD models are more expensive per terabyte, but offer instant response, are more energy-efficient, free from vibrations, and more portable: such a NAS can easily be placed on the desk next to the router or taken to the office/studio.
