The Nextcloud Box runs Ubuntu Snappy Core and is pre-loaded with Nextcloud 10 and necessary dependencies to easily deploy your own personal cloud. The Nextcloud Box is equipped with a 1TB USB 3.0 hard drive (sadly, there doesn't seem to be any RAID options for this device).
The Nextcloud Box pricing begins at $79.99 USD and is expected to begin shipping in October. It's a nice cheap box if you want to build your own small personal Linux cloud for file storage, but the 1TB capacity and lack of multiple drive / RAID support will be a letdown to more serious users. (Update: With seeing now it's powered by the Raspberry Pi, certainly wouldn't be recommended for any power-users due to the USB transfer speeds and lack of Gigabit Ethernet, etc).
Those wishing to learn more about this device for the ownCloud-forked project can find all the Nextcloud Box details via this product page.
