	tl;dr: Ubiquiti's new ENAS is a ZFS-based enterprise NAS powered by an 8-core ARM Neoverse N2 platform with 64GB ECC RAM, optional NVMe L2ARC caching, 16 drive bays expandable past 1PB, and dual 25GbE SFP28 ports. It integrates with UniFi for license-free management, identity-based access, and native iSCSI support for Proxmox/VMware/Hyper-V virtualization. Upcoming features include centralized multi-site backup orchestration, including offsite/cloud targets and Microsoft 365 user data backups.
	HN Discussion: ↑Enthusiasm for ZFS-based NAS and Ubiquiti entering this space ↑Ubiquiti's no-recurring-cost model is a major selling point worth preserving ↓Concerns about Ubiquiti's software quality and security track record undermine 'enterprise' claims ↓Pricing is too high compared to DIY alternatives like TrueNAS on used hardware ~Hardware specs are decent for SMB but not true enterprise-grade (no controller redundancy, limited features)
