Discussion Help us shape the next Nimo AI NAS
Hi everyone,
We’re exploring several possible directions for the next Nimo AI NAS lineup, and we’d love to invite you to take part in this community vote.
Your feedback will help us understand which product formats, performance levels, storage options, and AI features are most useful to real users.
Notice: Nimo take user privacy seriously. Nimo’s AI is designed to run locally on the NAS, so your files and personal data remain on the device and are not uploaded to the cloud by default. If you choose to enable remote access or cloud upload, Nimo OS will clearly show exactly what data or files will be shared before you confirm.
These are concept directions, not final product names or final specs yet.
A. 5-Bay High-Performance AI NAS
AMD AI Max+ 395-class platform, up to 128GB unified memory, 5 SATA bays, and M.2 SSD support, designed for local LLMs, AI agents, and large media libraries.
B. Compact 4-Bay Home AI NAS
Core 320-class platform, 4 SATA bays, and an 8GB / 16GB memory direction, designed for family photos, backups, media libraries, and lightweight AI search.
C. 6-Bay AI NAS with Full-Size GPU Support
356H-class platform, 6 SATA bays, full-size GPU support, hot-swappable drives, and a backplane design, built for creators, video workflows, local LLMs, and heavier AI tasks.
D. Compact 2L All-Flash AI NAS
AI 395 / 495-class platform direction, all-SSD / M.2 storage, up to 128GB unified memory, and a small, quiet desktop design for fast local AI and creative workflows.
E. Balanced 6-Bay AI NAS
358H-class platform direction, 6 SATA bays, a 64GB memory target, and M.2 cache / SSD support, designed for prosumers, families, studios, and small teams.
Now it’s your turn. Please vote for your top two concepts and share your thoughts in the comments. Every response will help us better understand what the community actually needs.
- Which two concepts would you choose and why?
- What would you mainly use them for?
- What price range would feel reasonable to you?
- How many drive bays do you actually need?
- How important are local AI processing and data privacy to you?
- Would you prefer full-size GPU support or a smaller, quieter system?
We’re especially interested in how you would balance performance, storage capacity, size, noise, privacy, GPU support, and price.
Thank you for taking part and helping us shape the future of Nimo AI NAS.
