It's my plex server and nas (m1). I've abandoned all the complicated complications and just have an 8 bay thunderbolt enclosure full of drives (JBOD)

And pg server. And a few web sites server. And something running in orb stack.

It's the 8gb model and I have around 2gb free most of the time



What enclosure do you have? Do you like it?


Owc thunderbay 8

I like it in every way except price. It just works, comes back online after a power outage, etc. I don't recall any unscheduled disconnects.

Additional thoughts: I think there are complaints about the fan being loud so I swapped it out when I first got it. I also have it in my basement so I don't hear anything anyway -- HDDs are loud, especially the gold ones


Not who you asked, but I have the OWC Express 4M2 [0]. Four M.2 chips RAIDed in a thunderbolt chassis. Fast as can be. I absolutely love it.
