Running AI on the TerraMaster F4-424

It can, with limits: expect small models only, at modest speed. Models run on its CPU cores, and this configuration leaves about 26.2 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.

Spec sources

Estimates come from published hardware specs and our open formulas, not from running the model on your machine. Real speed varies with runtime, drivers and settings. Numbers marked “Measured” come from a linked benchmark.
