Helios64 Introduction.
Helios64 is a powerful ARM board specially designed for Network Attached Storage (NAS). It harnesses its processing capabilities from the Rockchip RK3399 SoC.
Helios64 is our latest design for the ultimate ARM powered NAS. Compared to the Helios4, it offers improvement on every single key aspect :
- More storage capacity with 5x SATA ports,
- Greater network throughput with Multi-Gigabit Ethernet (2.5 GbE),
- Faster and Larger Memory with 4GB LPDDR4,
- More functionalities with Display Port and DAS modes support,
- Reinforced reliability with Built-in UPS.
