Minisforum at Computex 2026: Powerful Mini-PCs, Disk, and Flash NAS
Minisforum brought its finest new range of mini PCs, SOHO NAS, and M.2 NVMe NAS for production workflows, or running AI development that relies on flash storage. We begin our tour with the All-Flash S5, an M.2 NVMe DAS that can be operated as a NAS with the right software and network interface. The device is powered by an Intel Core Series 3 "Wildcat Lake" processor, and packs five M.2 NVMe Gen 4 slots for a total of 40 TB storage. The software feature-set includes an AI assistant powered by MinisOpenClaw, and MinisPhotos, a photo organizer with semantic search. The All-Flash S5 features an all-aluminium body, where the M.2 slots make contact with the case body, which doubles up as a heatsink.
The N5 MAX is another storage-intensive AI development platform. It's based on the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 "Strix Halo" processor, paired with 64 GB of LPDDR5X-8533 unified memory. Storage options include five 3.5-inch HDD bays with SATA 6 Gbps backplanes, and five M.2 NVMe Gen 4 slots for up to 200 TB of storage. Connectivity options include two 10 GbE wired LAN interfaces, and USB4 V2 (80 Gbps). It gets the same software feature-set as the All-Flash S5.
