Storage & Array Architecture

• SATA Array (8 Bays): 8 x 24TB drives deliver 192TB in standard RAID 0 / JBOD, or approximately 144TB usable in single-parity RAID 5 / 120TB usable in dual-parity RAID 6 for fault tolerance against hardware dropouts.
• M.2 Storage (2 Slots): 2 x 4TB NVMe SSDs configured in RAID 1 read/write caching to accelerate database transfers, container volumes, and high-frequency video asset scrubbing.
• Memory Overhead: The stock 8GB DDR5 module can be swapped or expanded up to 64GB DDR5 SO-DIMM if hosting dense Proxmox, TrueNAS SCALE, or Docker virtualization stacks.
