Configurations
Pick one to see which models it runs. More memory lets larger models fit; bandwidth sets how fast they answer.

| Notes | Intel Celeron N5095. CPU only: 4-core low-power chip, no NPU and no GPU slot. Ollama in Docker is the maker's suggested route; expect small models (1-4B, quantised) at slow speeds. No tokens-per-second benchmark was found for this model. Ships with 4 GB, so a memory upgrade is needed first. Official maximum is 16 GB. |

Running AI on the TerraMaster F2-425
It can, with limits: expect small models only, at modest speed. Models run on its CPU cores, and this configuration leaves about 12.0 GB for them after the NAS system and its storage services. The grades below assume the NAS isn’t busy with backups or media work at the same time. More memory is the upgrade that matters most: see the configurations.

AI features from TerraMaster
| Feature | What it does | Where the AI runs |

| Terra Photos (TerraMaster Photos) | Photo library with face and scene recognition; the maker says the AI processing uses a local model on the NAS. This is an image classifier, not a chat model. | On the NAS |
