Get up to 150% higher performance than Gigabit Ethernet with compatible hardware and up to 5 Gbps using link aggregation. ASUSTOR NAS devices can also record live streams in up to 4K HDR resolution and save them directly to the NAS, without affecting gaming performance. For gamers without large hard drive storage capacities, LAN parties, and Internet cafes, ADM offers iSCSI to store less demanding titles for simultaneous playback on multiple devices.

4K HDR experience

The Nimbustor features HDMI 2.0a with 10Kbit 4K hardware decoding and VP9 10bit Profile2 for a smoother experience and reduced CPU usage. Use Plex Pass or a third-party player to play 4K HDR video. ASUSTOR NAS devices are designed for 24/7 operation and have undergone rigorous drop and burn tests, while high-quality internal heat sinks efficiently dissipate heat from sensitive components to preserve longevity. ASUSTOR leads the way in quality and backs this up with the longest warranty in the industry - a three-year manufacturer's warranty.
