Got sent this by a family member, alarm bells immediately began ringing.

Immediately, there's no way you're getting 16TB of SSD storage for that price. Not even close. You're looking at 3-4x that for storage alone.
But if you assume it's not shipping with any storage at that price... it gets a little more feasible?
Their specs say Rockchip RK3588 CPU, ARM Mali-G610 GPU, and 8GB RAM - a bit of searching leads me to this amazon link for a ~$200 dollar single board computer with CURIOUSLY similar feature listings to what's on their site. Throw in a battery, custom chassis, and manufacturing, and it probably wouldn't be far off from that 400 dollar mark.
~~One problem - the chip in question only has a single storage interface, which according to the spec sheet can only be used as either SATA 3.0 OR PCIe 2.0 (graphic says 1 lane), which if I understand correctly, means a maximum of ~600MBS throughput.~~ (Edit: I used the wrong spec sheet. This lists up to 4x PCIe 3.0 lanes. So maybe it's decent?)
So worst case scenario, it's vaporware, best case scenario, you're spending over a grand for a box that can't do any better than a SATA drive.
The number of features they're claiming to offer on their site doesn't really make it much better. But I dunno. Maybe I'm missing something.
Thoughts?
