I've always opted for building my own and running linux every time it has come down to replacing, but I might split out NAS and compute this time and take a chance on a UGREEN one (maybe DH4300?), the reviews look solid for a new product segment from them.
I'm likely not buying a Synology at this point.
If anyone has one of their (UGREEN) models (or other brands) I'd be interested in hearing perspectives.
Edit: A lot more mentions of their models in the thread elsewhere at this point.
- Hikikomori 1y agoI bought a Terramaster DAS as I already had a NUC, just connected with USB, supports 10Gbit but my NUC only does 5. Looked a lot at NAS alternatives and ugreen, asustor, aoostar all seem pretty good, as you can just run truenas or a linux distro. Can also do DIY chassi with mini itx board.
- croon 1y agoI checked out Terramaster too, but was unsure of the interface. Does the HBA do any abstraction or is it IT mode and direct access to the disks?
