NAS

Just wanted to give a follow up of my NAS. I went with a Ugreen DXP 2800 NAS and two 8TB Ironwolf HD's. ( I really didn't need much space) I must say, this thing is totally user friendly for those with even an ounce of common sense.


It took me no more than an hour to setup everything, and having my phone backing up nightly.

I do wish I got the the 4 bay now, just in case I wanted to start streaming in the house.

9/10. Do recommend.

I upgraded to the 4-Bay, love it. I’m giving the 2-Bay to my wife for her business.

Share the nudes. I mean, cool. Ahem.

I've been upgrading my back-up NAS and stumbled across this Miniforum N5. Amazon has the 16GB RAM + 128GB m.2 SSD model for $639 currently- tempting. The 3 NVME slots are done with x1, x1, and x2 lanes. Hhas a half-height PCIe slot x16 slot wired at x4 for a small dGPu or other device and Occulink for an eGPU. CPU is overkill for a simple NAS, and the RAm apocolypse makes it expensive to go 64GB+ for home lab/server use.
