Key Features
Storage Built Around Your Work
The chassis provides 4 drive bays for compatible SATA HDDs and SSDs. Choose compatible drives and an appropriate RAID layout before loading the system. Drive redundancy can maintain availability after a supported drive failure, but it does not replace a separate backup.
Connect the Whole Workflow
The built-in network connection is 2 × Gigabit Ethernet (1G/100M) 2 × 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet (2.5G/1G/100M). Pair it with suitable switching, cabling and client connections to benefit from its supported link speed. Link aggregation, where supported, serves suitable multi-client traffic; it does not automatically multiply one computer’s transfer speed.
Plan for Recovery
ADM provides shared-folder permissions, file services and scheduled backup tools. Use supported remote, USB or cloud backup destinations to keep an independent copy, and test that important files can be restored. Btrfs is supported for suitable volumes, with snapshots available for supported configurations. Snapshots and RAID remain part of a wider backup plan, especially when protection against accidental deletion or ransomware matters.
Bring Compatible Cameras into View
Surveillance Center includes four camera licences. This model supports up to 64 IP cameras with additional licences, subject to recording settings and system resources. Confirm each camera’s compatibility and plan retention, bandwidth and disk workload before using the NAS for both surveillance and business files.
Summary
AS6504RD suits buyers who want a managed NAS for shared storage and backup with a clear view of its connection, memory and surveillance capabilities. This is a diskless system; compatible storage drives are purchased separately. Plan the storage, backup destination and network together so the finished system meets the needs of your team.
