ORICO CyberData Unveils High-Performance NAS Lineup: Introducing the $1400 CF1000 with Intel Core i5-1240P & 10GbE

ORICO is excited to announce that its CyberData NAS Series is now available for retail purchase starting today, July 28, 2026. The series, which includes four models, is being sold through ORICO’s official online store. The models in the range are the CyberData CF6 (all-flash), CyberData CF56 and CF56 Pro (hybrid-storage), and the flagship CyberData CF1000. These models offer configurations ranging from a compact six-slot solid-state system up to a ten-bay unit capable of holding up to 256TB. The launch of the series follows a successful crowdfunding campaign that garnered significant interest in the CyberData concept. ORICO describes CyberData as a private digital workspace that integrates storage, media management, self-hosted applications, and on-device AI tools within a unified operating system called CyberData OS. The prices for the models range from $599.99 to $1399.99.

ORICO emphasizes that the CyberData project gained attention during the crowdfunding phase by presenting the NAS as more than just a simple file storage system. The company’s storage product team spokesperson noted that the response from the crowdfunding campaign indicated a demand for speed, capacity, and control in a system that can expand alongside users’ data. The retail launch is seen as the next step in making this concept accessible to a wider audience.

The messaging surrounding the launch underscores a consistent theme in ORICO’s announcements: that digital lives are evolving faster than the tools available to manage them. CyberData aims to bring together files, media, creative projects, and self-hosted applications into a single environment under the user’s control, rather than relying on third-party cloud services.

Each of the four CyberData models runs on the CyberData OS software but varies significantly in terms of underlying hardware. The specifications provided by ORICO for each model are detailed in their launch materials and product listings.

Starting with the CyberData CF6, this model is the smallest in the range and does not have conventional hard drive bays. It features an Intel Core i3-N305 processor, 12th generation, with 8 cores and 8 threads, paired with 16GB of DDR5 memory (expandable to 64GB) and a 64GB eMMC module for the operating system. Storage is provided by six M.2 NVMe slots supporting Basic and RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10 configurations, with a maximum capacity of 48TB. Networking includes one 2.5GbE port, one 10GbE port, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, one HDMI 2.0 output, and one DisplayPort 1.4 output.

The CyberData CF56 adds five SATA drive bays alongside the six M.2 NVMe slots from the CF6. This combination provides up to 168TB of hybrid storage, allowing active projects to utilize fast NVMe storage while larger archives and backups can utilize the SATA bays. The specifications for memory, system flash, RAID support, networking, and ports are similar to the CF6, with 16GB DDR5 memory (expandable to 64GB), 64GB eMMC, RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10 support, one 2.5GbE port, one 10GbE port, and the same USB and video output options.

There is a discrepancy in ORICO’s materials regarding the CF56’s processor. While the specification chart lists the CF56 processor as an Intel Core i5-1240P with 8 cores and 8 threads, the same chip is also listed for the CF56 Pro and CF1000 as a 12-core, 16-thread part, which is the correct configuration for the i5-1240P.

Moving on to the CyberData CF56 Pro, this model maintains the five-bay-plus-six-M.2 storage layout of the standard CF56 but upgrades the rest of the hardware. It is powered by a 12-core, 16-thread Intel Core i5-1240P processor and includes a 128GB SSD in place of the eMMC module used in the lower models. Networking is enhanced with two 10GbE ports, and connectivity is expanded with two USB4 ports, a 40Gbps interface, in addition to the USB 3.2 Gen 2 and USB 2.0 ports found in the lower models. Video output is upgraded to HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4a with 8K support.

At the top of the range is the CyberData CF1000, which features ten SATA bays and two M.2 NVMe slots. It is equipped with the same 12-core, 16-thread Core i5-1240P processor as the CF56 Pro, a 128GB SSD, dual 10GbE networking, dual USB4 ports, and 8K-capable video output. The larger number of bays allows for RAID 50 and 60 configurations in addition to Basic and RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10 modes. The maximum capacity for the CF1000 is stated to be 256TB, although a separate line on the product page mentions up to 316TB. The actual capacity will depend on the drive sizes used in each bay.

All four models in the CyberData series run on the CyberData OS, a unified platform for backup, synchronization, sharing, media organization, and cross-device access across various platforms. The system supports Docker applications and virtual machines, enabling users to create self-hosted media services, productivity tools, and locally-deployed AI workflows around their data.

In terms of media features, CyberData OS includes AI-assisted search and classification tools to help users navigate large photo and video libraries based on images, people, locations, scenes, and natural-language descriptions. The system also offers tools for organizing photo, film, and music collections. Cross-platform synchronization is supported across Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and the web. Additionally, one-click backup compatible with Apple Time Machine, Plex, and Jellyfin media server support are included.

Data protection in the CyberData series is based on the ZFS file system, which is combined with standard RAID modes to provide features such as snapshot rollback, file undelete recovery, end-to-end encryption, and isolated user accounts. Every model supports Basic and RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10, with RAID 50 and 60 available for the ten-bay CF1000.

In summary, the core specifications of the CyberData models are as follows:

Comparing the CyberData series to other NAS models, the Ugreen NASync DXP4800 Plus and DXP2800 GT offer different configurations and features. The DXP4800 Plus is powered by an Intel Pentium Gold 8505 processor with 8GB of DDR5 memory and supports up to 136TB of storage. The DXP2800 GT, on the other hand, features an AMD Ryzen Embedded R2514 processor with 8GB of DDR4 memory and supports up to 80TB of storage. Both Ugreen models have fewer bays and different networking options compared to the CyberData series.
