    I had guessed you wanted something better which is part of the reason I didn’t share any links for AE. It was better to assume you missed the links, or something

    When it comes to things like a NAS, I prefer hardware that has been on the market for at least a year, has plenty of reviews on YouTube, or, I could ask a question on Lemmy and at least one other person owns it and has experience with it.

    Anecdotally, cheap hardware with key specs that appear great always come with a catch. In this case, I dunno what that catch is, but it’s in there somewhere.

      I would not need it for a NAS, I’m looking for a nice, handy machine to run Mosquitto and some scripts on. It would get an NVMe or two and a USB Wifi adapter and would span a network for my controllers. The controllers talk with the Mosquitto, and the scripts coordinate the controllers actions.
