ME Pro

https://www.bee-link.com/products/beelink-me-pro?variant=48421962186994 is what I ended up settling on, which is unfortunately not as cheap as it should be. Of course, nothing is as cheap as it should be anymore. :(

Agreed about Beelink and GMKtec, I’ve had good experiences thus far with both. The Beelink ME PRO is an impressive hybrid NAS for the price with N95 and N150 options and the ability to support m.2, 2.5” SATA, and 3.5” HDDs

[NAS/homelab] J'ai un Raspberry Pi 4 qui me fait office de NAS. J'aimerais bien faire tourner quelques services supplémentaires dessus mais ce serait trop lui demander. Notamment Immich (même si je peux déléguer la partie ML) et Jellyfin (déjà test par le passé, c'était laborieux). J'aimerais donc u

Recently bought Beelink Me Pro due to low price and a very compact size (personal requirement at the moment). Was also looking at N5 Air, R7 and WTR Pro. While researching found a lot of negative experiences with all of the models. Driver bug in M5 (corrupting data), cheap internal components, cooli

Yeah a lot of people recommend against USB. I have a m715q and do wish it had USB 3 at least. Limited drives is definitely a factor for mini PCs like the m700s though they are reliable platforms. If you don’t mind spending a little more, the Beelink ME PRO is a good entry level NAS with multiple dri

Personally did a bit of research into this myself as I have a similar interest, with the addition of running Immich and the arr* stack. Also want to use TrueNAS scale so my journey stuck to intel based systems. Landed on: - Terramaster F4-425 Plus or- Beelink ME Pro 2-Bay In the end I am leaning mor

What about something like this? https://www.bee-link.com/products/beelink-me-pro?variant=48421962154226 Those are the low-end Alder Lake N CPUs (successor to the Atom line), but they're entirely good enough to do the kinds of things you're talking about, including (say) play back a couple of Plex st

Currently I'm running on a NUC with 2 external USB. But I just received Beelink ME Pro a few weeks ago and still migrating to it. It will be a significant upgrade since Intel N95 support AV1 decoding.

The new Beelink ME Pro supports 2× HDD, and 3× SSD. Use a smaller SSD to hold TrueNAS, that leaves you with an SSD RAID1 for high speed "Warm" storage and a HDD RAID1 for "Cool" storage. But: the Ethernet maxes out at 5 Gigabit. That may be a deal breaker for you.

2/4. I have just built my Beelink Me Pro NAS running ZimaOS, I would like to have SSD caching options, but overall I’m more than happy with my current setup and running Home Assistant in ZVM. I would extend my current setup for local AI, I am very curious about it since it’s fanless too Power effici
