7 Bays seems like an odd number (although a much more useful number for e.g. RAID6).

No mention of M.2 Slots though for e.g. caching.

Software will also be the make or break point for this
I'd agree but they seem to be going in strong with that starting price.

I am really hoping this is good, as I would like to remove my current Synology
 
RAID10 leaves you with an odd unused drive bay. RAID5 over 7 drives seems like 2 too many - RAID6 would be a better choice

RAID10 and hot spare, if it supports spares.

But why oh why have they done the drive layout like that, have they never seen another storage product, would have been far better with 2u to go 2.5" vertical mount for 20+ bays, they could have then offered 6, 12, 24 bay options, also look at its depth, should be about a 3rd shallower, that's a whole lot of space for 7 drives, 4u for 14 drives is mental.

It does support a hot spare.

There are rumours of 2 other NAS devices, I have seen.
 
Will watch the videos later. Only 1x SFP+ port is disappointing.

Few things I'd like to know, and I suspect some would be answered in the videos.
Will it do iSCSI
Can you set up virtual networks, ie, multiple VLANs on it
Can it run containers/VMs
M2 support

What does the genuine brick look like? I've got two of these things and both came with a brick with a moulded-in plug affair.
 

Interesting, and this is definitely a Lite 8 PoE? Might try ordering from BB and see what I get.

NASCompares said no containers or M.2 support. The CPU is pretty weak in this.
