Is it for you?
An 8-bay all-flash M.2 NVMe NAS with an Intel Core i3-N305 processor, 16GB of DDR5 memory and a 10GbE port, in a paperback-sized tool-free drawer chassis that TerraMaster rates for up to 64TB of internal flash storage.
Choose it if these matter
- All-flash 8-bay M.2 NVMe design rated by the maker at up to 1020MB/s linear reads and writes over 10GbE, fast enough for multi-editor 4K workflows and virtualization
- Palm-sized 177 x 60 x 140mm chassis with a tool-free drawer that TerraMaster says installs or swaps SSDs (or memory) in under two minutes
- Intel Core i3-N305 8-core CPU plus 16GB DDR5 (upgradable to 32GB) gives it headroom for Docker containers and VirtualBox virtual machines
- Near-silent all-SSD operation: 19.0 dB(A) in standby per the maker's own measurement, with a heat sink on every SSD
Skip it if these rule it out
- Eight M.2 slots at PCIe 3.0 x1 each, so per-slot bandwidth is limited compared with PCIe 4 or PCIe 5 desktop SSD slots even though the drives themselves can be newer
- 16GB non-ECC memory in a single SODIMM slot (32GB maximum); heavy virtualization users may hit the ceiling
- M.2 NVMe SSDs cost much more per terabyte than 3.5-inch hard drives, and no drives are included
- TerraMaster's own product page sells it directly and links no Amazon listing for the exact model, so buying it means searching for the model name
Good for: Homelab · Media server · Backups · Home office

Watch out
- The F8 SSD and F8 SSD Plus are different models: the Plus has the i3-N305, 16GB of memory and 10GbE; the plain F8 SSD has 4GB and 2.5GbE.
- No SSDs are included; the 64TB maximum assumes eight 8TB M.2 drives installed.
