Should we be concerned about data security and user privacy of Terramaster brands NAS from China in c/[email protected]

I actually bought one of these a while ago. I left it behind when I moved house, honestly wishing I had bothered to pick it up when I left. I personally would be very careful about using one. It's not bad at doing what it's designed for, that is accessing files over a network. You can install a few apps on it and it even has docker support without needing modifications even on the ARM varient I had. The USB speeds where quite bad though that's mainly because I had a weak arm model. The real issue with it is security. Mine had some servies port forwarded to the internet so I could remote login via ssh and web gui to do stuff. This was a designed feature as they even gave you a way to access it without ddns. They didn't do enough to secure it and it had lots of vulnerabilities that led to mine getting ransomwared using a remote vulnerability. If you never port forward to it it should be okay, but if you have any intention of doing that then it isn't secure enough at all. That is what made me leave it behind and move back to a PC for my home server setup.

Stuttering in Jellyfin (alien.top)
 

Having issues with the Jellyfin client. Won't play a 4K video without stuttering using Direct Play. Transcoding to a lower resolution seems to fix this issue. I know the laptop is capable because it can play 4K video in VLC just fine. It's got a 11800H and a RTX 3050 Ti.

Nvidia Container Runtime (alien.top)
 

Can I use the Nvidia Container Runtime to do hardware encoding for something like Plex or Jellyfin? Does this require iommu? Can it work with Proxmox? Does it only work for one container or multiple?

My board has iommu issues so I am not sure I can do this. It doesn't sound very practical to buy a separate GPU anyway.

Do you have to have Plex, Jellyfin, and Tdarr all in the same container or VM?

Proxmox/truenas scale and hardware encoding (alien.top)
 

Is there a way to get hardware encoding for Plex or Jellfin when using Proxmox or TrueNAS scale. I want to do a setup for a media server using containers but I am worried about the hardware encoding limitations.
