  1. You really are a man of the people. Doing what the other reviews won't, and even giving critique on how it could be better despite it being a sponsored video. That's why I subbed

  2. Good job. Straight to the point. No nonsense and cover about everything few other reviewers missed. Also really dig your neutral approach in tested OS's. As multi OS user I'm getting sick of reviewers that are insnaely biased towards their own selections. I get supporting something, but dissing others selection is just dumb and doesn't contribute to anything. Let alone that many of these are just simply having their facts downright wrong. Keep up the good work!

    Shame that device has few caveats that render it bit bad for like Proxmox server with gpu passthrough for VM's.

  3. What are the size of the build in fans in the 6-Bay and 8-Bay Models? Do both has 2 x 92mm fans? Are 3 x Fans Possible and in which size then?
    The Fan in the PSU has 40x25mm, right? Is it possible to change ist and do you think an 40x28mm fan will also fit?

  4. Thank you for providing details on how the SATA ports are utilized. There were rumors circulating in the Facebook group suggesting that they were using the same 4-port host controller with some unusual port multiplication, potentially causing issues with TrueNAS. I'm glad to hear that this is not the case.

  5. I would buy the 4 bay version… BUT you can't buy it! It's a Kickstarter so you COULD loose your money and it's only available in US and Germany, so Ugreen says FU to the rest of the world.. 👎

  6. Thanks for the very informative video! I have a question:
    what is better:

    1) to clone multiple operating systems to the same external HDD where I have backups of my documents (one separate partition for each OS and another separate partition for my backup)?

    2) Or is it better to clone my operating systems (I have 4 of them) to one HDD for each OS,

    3) or last option, to backup my documents to HDD #1 and to clone my OSes in one HDD #2 with as many partitions as OSes ?

    And if so, why?

  7. Did you happen to test hardware passthrough in Proxmox of one or both of the SATA controllers? Would like to run TrueNAS Scale as a Proxmox VM but prefer to passthrough the controller rather than the individual disks.

  8. Pretty refreshing that they're not super anti-user when it comes to 3rd party OS's. I can't think of anything else that's this easy to get working in that regard.
    I do wish the watchdog feature was smarter, but, at least you can turn it off. That's really the only gripe though, and these boxes with some NVME and a bunch of big spinners are going to be Truenas SMB champs tbh.

  9. 100C temps means cpu thermal throttling. Did you check thermal paste? Great in depth review. 6 bay with an Nvidia card for HW transcode would be great for Plex or jellyfin to replace my aging Synology DS918+.
