Eight Bays with Flexible M.2 SSD Caching

The AS6508T is a cost-effective large capacity NAS designed for enterprise environments. The AS6508T supports
online capacity expansion, allowing for the flexible purchase of enterprise storage equipment. When your budget
and storage requirements are smaller, you can purchase a smaller number of hard disks. Additional disks can be
purchased as your storage requirements grow. Combined with ASUSTOR’s MyArchive storage technology, this
allows you to effectively achieve unlimited storage.
Data Protection Starts with ASUSTOR RAID

ASUSTOR understands that your data is priceless, therefore

an ASUSTOR NAS provides different RAID options, giving your
data various levels of protection from the moment it is first RAID 1 RAID 5 RAID 6

stored on the NAS. We recommend you plan your storage

protection based on your NAS model and number of hard
drives. Data protection has never been so simple.
