Q: Which ZimaCube 2 model should I choose?
A: Choose Standard for personal cloud, media libraries, backups, and lighter self-hosting or editing workflows. Choose Pro if you want more CPU headroom, 10GbE, and faster SSD expansion for heavier multitasking or more demanding active projects. Choose Creator Pack if you need the most powerful setup, with 64GB RAM, 1TB SSD, and dedicated GPU support for more advanced creative or AI workflows.

Q: Can I run my own OS?
A: Yes. ZimaCube 2 is built on standard hardware and follows a zero-lock-in approach. It comes with ZimaOS Plus preinstalled, while remaining compatible with a wide range of other operating systems and self-hosting setups. This openness is also a core part of the official product positioning.

Q: Is the Standard model enough for me?
A: For many users, yes. ZimaCube 2 Standard is a strong fit for personal cloud, backups, media libraries, Docker apps, and lighter creative or self-hosting workflows. If your work involves heavier multitasking, faster active project storage, or more demanding editing and expansion needs, Pro version gives you more room to grow.

Q: What does the 7th bay mean in practice?
A: The 7th bay is designed for high-speed SSD expansion. On Standard, the shared bandwidth is around 800 MB/s, which is generally suitable for lighter active workflows and fast-access storage. On Pro and Creator Pack, the 7th bay reaches around 3200 MB/s, making it better suited for more demanding editing, scratch storage, and performance-focused workflows.

Q: How quiet is it?
A: ZimaCube 2 uses a redesigned thermal system built for cooler and quieter operation. According to the recent launch materials, full-load CPU temperatures are reduced by nearly 30%, while system noise stays around 30 dB.
