Announced yesterday: a compact 9-bay hybrid NAS with five 3.5-inch SATA bays, four U.2 NVMe slots, dual Thunderbolt 4 for direct-to-workstation editing, 10GbE + 2.5GbE, and QuTS hero (ZFS) under the hood — price TBA.
$699 for a 1U switch with ten PoE+++ 10GBASE-T ports, two SFP+ uplinks, a 400 W budget, and L3 routing. ServeTheHome tore it down — inside is a Realtek RTL9313 you've seen in $250 switches, which is exactly why this price works.
Panther Lake Core Ultra 9 386H, 2x Intel X710 SFP+ plus a Realtek 10GbE base-T, U.2 storage, a real PCIe slot, vPro, and a measured 13.3 W idle. $999 barebone, available to order with a late-August ship window, and Proxmox sees all four network ports out of the box.
