Nice! I wish it had a USB port for setting up NAS, though.
Full specs:
It has a USB port and an M2 NVME slot. As someone else noted, USB is usually considered a poor choice due to speed and reliability, so I would suggest nvme.
I'm a bit unfamiliar with NVME, I'll look into that maybe instead.
It doesn't have a lot of ram so it isn't great for a NAS. Better to use dedicated hardware
Using this as a NAS would be an odd choice indeed - it’s unequivocally a router.
Setting up NAS? Anything over USB is going to be slower than LAN, isn't it (which is still your bottleneck anyway)?
