The Best Budget All Flash NAS? UnRAID Powered LincStation N1
The LincStation N1 https://geni.us/lincstation-N1 is a micro sized, all-flash NAS that we are testing and reviewing today. We'll unbox it, touching on the surprisingly decent Celeron N5150 CPU, 16GB of DDR4 RAM, and the zippy 2.5Gbps network connection. Not to mention, we'll also provide a critical view on some of its shortcomings like the lack of USB (enough) ports and a US incompatible power adapter plug. However, the NVMe drives and the potential for storage expansion using external drive bays or USB drives might just tip the scale in its favor.
Lincstation N1 https://geni.us/lincstation-N1 comes with an UnRAID license or if you want to DIY

I'll step you along as we share our experience setting up the LincStation N1 - installing four Samsung Evo 970 Plus and two Samsung Evo 870 1 TB SSDs. We walk you through the process of configuring a storage array and creating an SMB share. We will check the performance under a 2.5 gigabit per second connection transfer speeds while we are at it. Finally, we'll put the LincStation N1 to the ultimate test - handling a 4K UHD video production and Docker Debian 12 Bookworm container. We'll also discuss the added advantage of its upgradable UnRAID license and its versatility. Is the LincStation N1 price and specs good enough for a content creator? Find out!
