For anyone navigating the complexities of modern digital life, where data accumulates at an astonishing pace and the demand for robust, secure, and intelligent storage solutions is ever increasing, the limitations of conventional options often feel restrictive. You might be struggling with slow cloud transfers, privacy concerns, or the sheer inability to process large datasets locally for creative or professional projects. Imagine a world where your personal data hub not only safeguards vast amounts of information but also acts as a powerful computing engine, capable of running sophisticated artificial intelligence applications right at your fingertips. ORICO Cyberdata, now available through its Kickstarter campaign, is not just another network attached storage system; it represents a profound evolution in how we manage, protect, and leverage our digital assets. This AI powered NAS, complete with an optional GPU dock and a versatile RAID cabinet, is poised to redefine your relationship with data, offering unparalleled speed, ironclad security, and intelligent capabilities previously reserved for enterprise level infrastructure.


Project Overview

  • Name and Creator: ORICO Cyberdata: AI Powered NAS with GPU Dock and RAID Cabinet by Orico.

  • What It Is: The ORICO Cyberdata is a series of high performance network attached storage devices that integrate powerful processing capabilities, extensive storage options, artificial intelligence features, and flexible expansion. It is designed for prosumers, media professionals, and small businesses seeking a private cloud solution with advanced data management, high speed connectivity, and local artificial intelligence processing power. The series includes various models like CF500, CF500 Pro, CF6 All Flash, CF56, CF56 Pro, and the flagship CF1000.


Key Features

  • Artificial Intelligence Powered Capabilities: The Cyberdata NAS is designed to support open source large language models and other artificial intelligence agents locally. This allows for applications such as artificial intelligence based photo sorting, text generation, file classification, and personal assistant workflows, all while maintaining full data privacy and control on your device. Future artificial intelligence features will roll out via over the air software updates.

  • Powerful Processors: Equipped with Intel processors, including Intel N150, Intel Core i3 N305, and up to Intel Core i5 1240P with 12 cores and 16 threads. These provide significant power for multitasking, virtualized environments, and local artificial intelligence model deployment.

  • Extensive Storage Capacity: Supports up to 256TB of storage across various configurations. This includes multiple bays for 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch SATA HDDs or SSDs, and multiple M.2 NVMe SSD slots for ultra fast flash storage. The mixed storage design provides flexibility for tiered or cache accelerated environments.

  • GPU Dock Integration: Select models support an optional GPU Dock, transforming the NAS into a versatile workstation capable of handling virtualized gaming machines, high performance productivity workloads, and demanding artificial intelligence tasks with ease.

  • High Speed Connectivity: Features dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 40Gbps USB4 ports that support Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt 4. This enables ultra fast data transfers and seamless network integration for high performance workloads.

  • Advanced RAID Support: Supports multiple RAID configurations including RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10 on all models. Advanced RAID 50 and RAID 60 are available on the flagship CF1000. This ensures data integrity, redundancy, and accelerated data throughput.

  • ZFS File System: Utilizes the enterprise grade ZFS file system for features such as inline data integrity verification, native encryption, space efficient snapshots, and robust data protection.

  • Cross Platform Operating System and Virtualization: Runs on Orico CyberData OS, which supports multi system virtualization via its built in virtual machine feature. Users can seamlessly access and switch between private Windows, Linux, Debian 12, and Ubuntu desktop systems locally or remotely. Docker Compose is also supported for lightweight deployments.

  • Comprehensive Data Security: Includes features such as multiple independent user accounts, end to end encryption, real time intrusion prevention, powerful antivirus capabilities, and TPM protected secure storage pools to safeguard your data and privacy.

  • Versatile I/O Options: Offers a wide array of ports including USB 3.2 Gen2 USB A, USB 3.2 Gen2 USB C, USB 2.0, HDMI 2.0 or 2.1, and DisplayPort 1.4 or 1.4a for direct display output, allowing it to function like a desktop computer.
