Morefine Unveils N1 NAS: High-Performance Tower NAS with AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 8845HS
Morefine has introduced the N1 NAS, a powerful tower-style network-attached storage solution designed for users who demand both performance and expandability. At its core, the N1 NAS features the AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 8845HS processor, offering robust computing capabilities suitable for intensive data management and multitasking environments.
Impressive Memory and Storage Options
The Morefine N1 NAS supports up to 96 GB of DDR5-5600 ECC memory, ensuring high-speed data processing and enhanced reliability for critical workloads. The base model starts at $759 in a barebones configuration, while pre-configured options with 32 GB, 64 GB, and 96 GB of memory are priced at $1,209, $1,569, and $1,929 respectively.
For storage, the N1 NAS offers three M.2 slots, accommodating up to 12 TB of SSD storage. Additionally, four hot-swappable 3.5-inch HDD bays are accessible from the top of the case, supporting up to 120 TB of additional storage. This combination of SSD and HDD options provides flexibility for both speed and capacity, making the N1 suitable for a wide range of NAS applications.
Compact and Functional Design
The N1 NAS is housed in an aluminum chassis measuring 218 × 193 × 372 mm. While it is more compact than many ITX systems, it offers more expandability than typical mini PCs, such as the recently announced Minisforum MS-A2. The design balances space efficiency with the ability to accommodate high-performance components.
Powerful PSU and GPU Support
Equipped with an integrated 800 W power supply unit, the N1 NAS dedicates 400 W to GPU power, making it suitable for graphics cards like the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. However, users should note that the specific PSU power connectors have not been detailed. The internal space for a discrete GPU is limited to 330 mm × 66 mm, favoring small form factor (SFF) GPUs for optimal compatibility.
Comprehensive Connectivity and Features
The Morefine N1 NAS offers a versatile selection of ports, including dual 10 GbE RJ45 Ethernet ports for high-speed network connectivity. Additional ports include dual USB 2.0, one USB4, one USB 3.2 Gen 2, one USB 3.2 Gen 1, a full-size SD card reader, and HDMI 2.0. This extensive connectivity ensures compatibility with a wide range of peripherals and network environments.
On the front panel, a 3-inch full-color touchscreen provides real-time system information, enhancing user interaction and monitoring capabilities.
Conclusion
The Morefine N1 NAS stands out as a high-performance, expandable NAS solution tailored for professionals and enthusiasts seeking advanced features in a compact form factor. With its powerful AMD Ryzen processor, generous memory and storage options, and robust connectivity, the N1 NAS is well-positioned to meet the demands of modern data storage and management.
