Lockerstor Gen 3 info

Post by snapshot »

There are now product pages for the Lockerstor Gen 3 range on Asustor's web site:
https://www.asustor.com/product?p_id=86 for the AS6804T
through to
https://www.asustor.com/product?p_id=89 for the AS6810T

They're all identical apart from the obvious physical differences but what seems to be missing is any mention of M.2 caching or data. M.2 2280 is listed in the drives supported but there is no mention of M.2 drive slots like there is for the Gen 2. I hope this is an oversight as otherwise these new devices will not be what I am looking for. I've now noticed the page of the datasheet where the four M.2 slots are shown and mentioned so panic over.

I couldn't find similar pages for the Flashstor 2.

I see those pages now redirect to the home page. Why do I get an unhappy feeling about this?

Still nothing at all about the Flashstor 2.

YAY! Finally officially released and the above data pages are working again. Next question, of course, is when will it actually be available to buy? To be fair, Asustor hasn't been too bad in the past and Amazon usually has stock reasonably soon after release.

Flashstor Gen 2 is still missing though.

Lockerstore 4 and 6 gen 3 available on Amazon.ca
Update: Images look like they are gen 2 since they don't seem to match the gen 3 specs.

Yes, same on Amazon UK and the prices are a lot less attractive than I'd hoped. I expected a premium over Gen 2 but twice the price is more than I'm prepared to pay.
