No budget for now, and I own the SSDs already I just want to know what’s out there and what other people like.
My current setup is cobbled together from random parts and the HDDs are loud in my bedroom. I want all SSD storage (at least 4x) but with enough CPU/Ram to handle a lot of apps/VMs and some above-average demanding tasks (jellyfin, syncthing) than just being a NAS.
The only other criteria is that I would prefer it to be as small as possible (not rack mount).
Yeah, that’s not going to work. You’ll have to at least rank your requirements. Is size more important, or is it the number of RAM slots? Also, what is “enough CPU/Ram”?
Also also, “unlimited” will only get you unrealistic things like the 10k+ PCI-E SSDs.
Silence is the only requirement, I just want to know what’s out there that other people like. I prefer small. I own SSDs I am interested in the NAS itself.
