Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Ready: ADM Prepared for Future Threats

ASUSTOR has officially upgraded ADM to support PQC Hybrid TLS encryption certified by the US NIST. This fully adopts the official version of the Kyber algorithm, X25519+ML-KEM 768, and in ADM 5.1 and later, automatically enables this feature through TLS 1.3 without requiring any configuration. This protects against the Harvest Now, Decrypt Later threat. As long as your browser supports PQC, it will immediately establish a post-quantum cryptography (PQC) encrypted secure connection, and the connection status will be clearly displayed through the ADM interface, ensuring that data stored on your ASUSTOR NAS can withstand future quantum computer threats.

Ryzen + Flash = Fast

The AMD Ryzen™ Embedded V3C14 processor integrates high-performance Zen 3 cores into a cool and quiet CPU. The exceptional processing efficiency and high-speed I/O connectivity of the Ryzen Embedded CPU ensures efficient operation, enabling fast data transfer and high-speed computing while sipping minimal power.

Breaking the 10 Gbps Barrier

The Flashstor 6 Gen2 series features 10-Gigabit Ethernet, allowing for high speed transfers when paired with a 10GbE-enabled device and a compatible router or switch.

ECC RAM Supported

ECC (Error-Correcting Code) can detect and correct memory errors, enhancing system stability and reliability. It reduces the risk of data errors, ensuring data integrity in enterprise environments. For businesses that require high reliability, consider upgrading your Flashstor Gen2 to the maximum of 64 GB of memory for enterprise servers and workstations.

USB4 – The 4 Stands for 40 Gbps!

The Lockerstor Gen3 is equipped with two USB4* Type-C ports providing ultra-high speeds of up to 40 Gbps. Plug in USB4, Thunderbolt 3 or Thunderbolt 4 storage devices to transfer your work and personal data at speeds never before seen on an ASUSTOR NAS.

Keeping Cool

The Flashstor Gen2 series now incorporate an improved thermal dissipation design that includes strategically placed fans that are efficient and silent to cool every high performance component in the Flashstor Gen2 series. This optimized cooling efficiency ensures sustained high performance while maintaining low noise levels.

Hard Drives Welcome!

The all-SSD Flashstor continues ADM’s amazing support for hard drives when connecting an AS5004U expansion unit to the USB 3 ports on your NAS. When raw capacity is needed, the Flashstor enables the best of both worlds.

Source-text note: The supplied USB4 section refers to “Lockerstor Gen3” even though this product is named as a Flashstor model. That wording has been retained and flagged rather than corrected using external information.
