First and most importantly, I applaud your providing this information to help others. I don't disagree with anything you said on its face but I do have something to add. If all you want to look at is performance for the price, then there's not much more to say. But if you legitimately expect your mi

I bought it specifically because I wanted it to be a powerful nvme Nas/server. I already have an Asus Nuc 14 pro+ (core 9 ultra loaded with 96 GB ram).

Ironically, I was just starting to look at the Asus NUC 14 Pro because it has two Thunderbolt 4 ports. It looked like it had two NVMe slots inside, though I wasn't sure that the smaller (2242?) slot was PCIe 4.0 x4 or not. Based on your experience, this might be the solution that I'm looking for. Th

I'm using Sonnet Breakaway Box 750ex with NUC 14 Pro and works perfect.
