Really solid system. Works perfectly with TrueNAS installed. 4 4TB Samsung 990 Pro - super fast performance as expected. 7.36GB/s transfer with MacBook Pro direct networked on Thunderbolt 4. CPU (80C Avg) and M.2 SSD (60C Avg) temps stay in well within acceptable ranges while hammering it with transfers both thunderbolt and Ethernet. Love it.

Fast setup, great software

very good product, from the moment of purchase it was fantastic, fast and very well attended, the product itself is super Recommended, for my needs it has met all my expectations, I recommend buying 32 GB more in advance and it is very good, I have only one complaint and that is that the fan is heard minimally but it is heard, do not think that it is like the Mac that cannot be heard, The unit also gets a little hot.

I'm reviewing this as someone that's been in IT for over 25 years and has used similar units from Synology all the way up to huge $100k+ SANs. This is a great little storage tank for use in the home and even to a certain extent some limited usage in the corporate world. For me, I'm using it solely for local machine backups, so I don't really need a ton of features beyond just a bunch of disk space, but this has a lot more than I expected. The ability to install M.2 NVMe drives as read/write caches is great and seems to speed things up considerably. It was super easy to configure and the box itself is well-built and easy to manage. Some of the most clever drive trays I've ever dealt with: no tools required and I had this thing loaded up with test drives and serving files in like ten minutes. I had it set up as a local Time Machine backup in under an hour. (most of that was spent finding a place to hide it) It's reasonably quiet and it has a lot of options to silence beeps and dim lights, which is nice if you're using it at home.

If there's one thing I take from evaluating this: I see a lot of potential in this thing going forward. It really reminds me a lot of older Synology units where they had the essentials needed when they came out, but then they just kept adding more features over time to make them even better. This is missing things that Synology has like iSCSI targets, etc, but I'm sure all that stuff will come as time and market needs dictates.

I should mention that I haven't yet tried the Docker setup, but I do intend to here soon. In that case, I feel like a RAM upgrade would probably be justified.

Great process, lovely piece of machinery/technology.
