Seeking NAS of pcie 4 type - Enquiries - 05-14-2025
Hi, can you suggest a NAS that's PCIe4+ for storing files?
I was considering putting in 4*4TB nvme's inside, so I have plenty of space.
I was toying with the idea of a 4 nvme card to go into a pcie slot but not sure if my MSI mobo will do the 4x4x4x4 required.
Any recommendations would be most welcome.
Thanks, Nick.??

If your MSI board does support x4x4x4x4 bifurcation, the ASUS Hyper M.2 Gen4 card is a fantastic bang-for-buck solution.
If not, and you’re serious about performance/expansion, consider:
A workstation/server board with full PCIe bifurcation support
Or a smart RAID NVMe card like the HighPoint SSD7540
