What reviewers say about the ASUSTOR Lockerstor 4 Gen3 (AS6804T)

Only one whitelisted tester (TechRadar) published a hands-on review of this exact model. TechRadar rates it 4/5, praising its AMD Ryzen Embedded V3C14 CPU with ECC DDR5 memory, up to 30GbE of network bandwidth and mature ADM 5.0 software, but flags the steep ~$1,300 price (nearly double the Gen 2), the missing GPU, and M.2 slots limited to a single PCIe lane.

Based on 1 review · 1 lab-tested · 2025-02-02

Tested by TechRadar

Consistently praised

  • Powerful AMD Ryzen Embedded V3C14 CPU paired with ECC DDR5 memory
  • Huge network bandwidth: dual 10GbE plus dual 5GbE and USB 4.0 direct connection
  • Mature, feature-rich ADM 5.0 software with an excellent app selection

Commonly flagged

  • Expensive for a four-bay NAS (~$1,300), nearly double the Gen 2 price
  • No GPU, which hurts Plex/video transcoding
  • M.2 slots limited to a single PCIe lane; trays require tools (not tool-less)

Where reviewers disagree Single-source coverage, so no cross-source disagreement could be assessed; TechRadar's own verdict is internally split, calling it an incredibly powerful NAS while judging the price excessive for home and small-business buyers.

An amazing powerhouse of a NAS, perfect for a software developer.
However, it isn't cheap, and its AI features lag behind those of Synology.
One immediate disappointment for this reviewer was that installing any drives requires tools since the notion of tool-less trays appears to have evaded Asustor.
