The rackmount chassis provides 16 hot-swappable bays for compatible 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch SATA HDDs and SSDs.
Dual 10GbE plus dual 1GbE
Two 10-Gigabit and two Gigabit Ethernet ports support flexible high-speed, redundant and aggregated network designs.
PCIe Gen5 flexibility
One Gen5 x8 slot, one Gen5 x4 slot and one M.2 2280 PCIe Gen5 x4 slot support qualified expansion and NVMe storage.
Redundant power
Two 550W 80 PLUS Platinum redundant power supplies support service continuity in an appropriate rack environment.
Who is the ASUSTOR Lockerstor 16R Pro Gen2 AS7216RDX best for?
A strong choice for
Business file services and centralised shared storage
Backup repositories and multi-stage data-protection workflows
Virtualisation and container workloads supported by ADM applications
High-throughput teams using 10GbE networking
Rack deployments needing 16 front-access hot-swap SATA bays
Consider another model if you need
You need a desktop or quiet small-office form factor
You do not have suitable rack depth, airflow and power provision
Your chosen drives or expansion cards are not on the compatibility list
You need a fully populated system rather than a diskless enclosure
