NASync DXP2800

This is a huge question with an even bigger answer. Hang on... Step 1: You need a box to act as a server. There are a few common options you will see discussed; Second hand office PC with an 8th Gen intel or newer (~$200). These are cheap but can be tricky to add HDDs because most are SFF and have l

Hau einfach die Seagate dran. Wenns in nem Schränkchen steht ab und an mal die Temperaturen checken. Bei ner single Platte ohne entsprechender Backuplösung (oder zumindest raid 1) sämtliche auf der Platte befindliche Daten als verzichtbar ansehen. Auf Dauer würde ich dir ein richtiges NAS wie bspw.

I think the ugreen will be better as it should have more powerful processor. But keep in mind that that ugreen model won’t have space for an internal SSD (which is where you should store Immich’s postgresql db) I would personally go with a dxp2800 so that you can have 2 nvme SSDs

Why install Truenas? If it's because you think everyone does it, be aware of positive bias. I believe most Ugreen users don't because they're happy with the default, but a vocal minority do.

UGREEN NASync DXP2800 Review

The UGREEN NASync DXP2800 stands out as one of the best NAS storage systems on the market today, offering an exceptional balance of price, performance, and features. Among its highlights is the mobile application, which is available across multiple platforms and provide

A Pi is a prototyping board, not a PC. You use it for electronic stuff, experimenting, not as PC. Those things are pretty unstable and unreliable for using them as PC or NAS, i talk for experience. The cost of a Pi5 (120 Euro plus everything needed to work as a NAS, add another 70/100 Euro) is highe

Second this. The Beelink ME Mini Pro is a good choice with a tiny footprint. I am eyeing it for a 10” build. A decent runner-up could be the two-bay UGREEN DXP2800 on its side.

I went with ugreen dxp2800. Just 2 Bay, I'm sure at one point ill need to get a 4 bay but that is years and years away. I have multiple spare external drives. And cloud storage as well. But the NAS is for plex and so far it's great.
