This. And build my own instead of going with synology.
I've been pretty happy with my Synology NAS. Literally trouble-free, worry-free, and "just works". My only real complaint is them getting rid of features in the Photos app, which is why I'm still on their old OS.
But I'd probably build a second NAS on the cheap, just to see how it compares :)
What OS would you go with if you had to build one?
I’m happy with synology too for the most part. But I like a bit more flexibility I’d probably build one and use truenas or unraid.
I ended up getting a Raspberry Pi 4 and the Argon Eon case. It all goes through one USB 3 channel however, and for some reason I am stuck at 10MB/s transfer speeds even though USB 3 standards support much more.
I would like a SBC which supports SATA. I suppose there is a the Raspberry Pi CM4, although there's no cases for it to support multiple drives
I’ve got the argon one v2 with a m2 drive. Works well haven’t tested speeds. Not used as a nas though.
