A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I've been running a QNAP TS-435UeX and it checks all the boxes coming in with a mountain of hardware and capability for cheap. Dual 10 GB SFP+ ports, dual SSD slots for raided read write acceleration, user upgradeable memory. It does a lot of stuff and it's an appliance so all the building out and troubleshooting crap is done for you, you just do what you want to do and be productive. The onboard encryption engine can fill the bandwidth of those SFP+ ports even if they're bonded. 4 drive bays, but you can also add another 12 via a couple of different sized expansion boxes.
It's a 1U so the fans are kinda small, therefore it's a bit noisy. The desktop version should be alright though.
