I’m looking to replace a 2013 Mac Mini running Proxmox. Just curious if anyone has one of these or anyone heard of any negatives about them? Watched a bunch of videos and outside of a lack of 10G Ethernet, it seems to be well received!

Thanks for the heads up, my Mini’s NIC is totally F’d so I’m using a USB adapter, I’d like to avoid having to do that again, but the WTR Pro does have 2 RJ45 Ethernet ports which is better than the Mini has.

I don't really think it's necessarily a deal breaker, but it's caused a lot of people a lot of nagging little issues and might be worth making sure you're not going to run into anything.

I'm super stoked at the appearance of the nas appliance form factor with hardware that's got performance that isn't rotten potato level.

Next rebuild I do is certainly going to be one of these things, though that's probably a billion years away since my current nas is hilariously overpowered.
