@PantheraTK
This is a successor to the MS-A1. It sounds like we will see also an MS-02 at some point
@glmchn
Someone said "Nas" ? More like a BANGER Proxmox cluster node ! Feels like my endgame node for a while. - Node 1 AI VM/containers workloads : GC in pci-e; 128GB RAM; 2*m.2 raid0 for fast af local project storage; huge slower disk in the third slot for systems; the 2 SFP+ bounded for cluster stuff (migrations, backup, ceph extra monitor ...); Gbe2.5 for client side access. - Node 2&3 clones systems - actual H-A hypervisors : 25Gbps NIC in pci-e slot for bulk storage target on TrueNAS; 4 or 6 * m.2 as OSDs of ceph cluster for VMs storage. 10Gb SFPs for Ceph and cluster stuff. 2.5Gb for client lan access. Insane setup. Actually insane.
@nadtz
Still don't understand why they didn't do this for the A1. This is exactly what I wanted, might grab a couple of these to add to the homelab.
@mistakek
This is what I've been waiting for. This is going to be a killer homelab machine.
@tttomtxhc
Unfortunate there is no USB4 but I would still take this over the MS01
@tiwopli
I would like to have an MS-A2 now, I already have an MS-01, but for some projects, such as LLMs, the MS-01 is just too slow xD
@O4KAST
Unraid 7 just released btw
@seethruhead7119
for me the ms-01 cheaper model still reigns supreme i use these for proxmox cluster if i wanted a workstation i would use something like a Formd T1 with non mobile hardware
@solarhomelab
So this is what we all thought the MS-A1 was going to be almost identical to the MS-01, now we can discuss. No USB 4 but instead you get USB-C gen 2 10gps and ECC memory and more cores (12 more cores). Proxmox server anyone? As a NAS I don't think this is great and while you could add the upgrade card to the system to make more drives I think its not ideal and would waste this system. If this is cheaper than the MS-01 then we might have a winner. Lets see how long it takes until it comes out?
@frankwarmsley3204
Can't wait for you to try the SFP+ to Ethernet adapters on this.
@huggekarlsson
This with a QM2 card would be golden
@JasonsLabVideos
I want a pair of these for a HA server setup !
@peteradshead2383
I just couldn't workout what Minisform was doing with the MS-A1 , they had a popular product which on the way to be converted to a Ryzen CPU cut out all the parts which made the MS-01 popular . They cut out the full size PCI-e slot and the SFP+ ports and just replaced them with a hodge·podge of NVME slots . where does it say no USB4s ? , I can see the 2 USB C port like on the MS-01 .. OK ... looked again at the video which says USB 3C - gen 2x2
@Tobascus
At 0:53 you said, that it supports ECC Memory. But the MS-A1 didn't support it. And LTT also said for the MS-A2 that it does not support it...are you sure that it supports it? Because then it would be perfect for me :)
@ewenchan1239
This is the successor to the MS-A1, not the MS-01. It might not have the 40 Gbps USB4 that the MS-01 has, but it's still going to be a killer system. CAN'T WAIT!
@JoshuaStrobl
Typo in title ( missing r in Minisforum).
@MrVagyok
I would love to know on the A2: Is Bifurcation (x16 to x4+x4+x4+x4) enabled in BIOS for x16 slot?
@FouDeFafa
Someone's been sleeping at the Minisforum booth 😂
@javim1000xr
finally can use all the cores for esxi
