[Gear Rumors Admin]

The Minisforum N5 Pro NAS has the following key features:

• AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 370 Strix Point processor
• Max of 96GB of DDR5-5600 ECC RAM (it's not clear how much comes in the base/standard model yet)
• 1 x 10 GbE LAN and 1 x 5 GbE LAN ports
• Internal PCIe Gen 4x4 slot
• OCuLink port for external PCIe Gen 4x4 connections (up to 64 Gbps)
• 5 x 3.5" SATA 3.0 drive bays
• 1 x M.2 2280/22110 PCIe Gen 4x2 slot
• 1 x M.2 2280/22110 PCIe Gen 4x1 slot
• 1 x M.2 2230/2280 PCIe Gen 4x1 slot
• 2 x USB4 (40 Gbps with DisplayPort Alt Mode)
• 3 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10 Gbps)
• 1 x USB 2.0 Type-A (480 Mbps)
• 1 x HDMI 2.0
• 1 x 3.5mm audio jack
• 1 x DC power input

We don't know the price yet. If we had to guess, and maybe it's wishful thinking, $899 USD. Obviously not with the full 96GB of RAM. Still, this is an "exciting" product as far as NAS's go on account of its sheer power.
