TerraMaster F2-425 is the least expensive way on this list to get an Intel x86 NAS with a 2.5GbE port. TerraMaster lists an Intel N5095 quad-core chip with 4GB of DDR4 RAM, hardware H.265 decoding for Plex, Emby and Jellyfin, and an HDMI 2.0b port for direct TV playback. Its TRAID mode lets you mix drive sizes and, per TerraMaster, gives up to 30% more usable capacity than traditional RAID, with up to 60TB in total. Setup runs from the TNAS Mobile app without a PC, and the drive trays are tool-free. TOS 7 adds on-device AI photo sorting, cloud sync with Google Drive, OneDrive and Dropbox, and full Docker support for apps such as Home Assistant or Pi-hole. TerraMaster rates it at 19 dB(A). Trade-offs are 4GB of RAM and a 2-year warranty. The TerraMaster store listed it at $269.99, down from $299.99. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not test the NAS ourselves.
