The problem with SFP+ is that you shift the cost to buying SFP+ modules for each port. On top of that, you run SFP+ compatibility risks.…

You still get 5 year warranty, but you can't go to the Australian distributor for service. Since the distributor never got their cut for…

Strange that they call it Pro, but it doesn't actually use a Ryzen PRO, so no ECC.

Two Hazies that will be at least half a year old and very likely were not refrigerated at all times? That's not going to drink well. Pass.

Still not SAS. Just a dense connector that gives you four SATA ports. I've got a CWWK / Miniroute NAS motherboard with two of those…

Yep. Same case here. Error U4. It cost me less to replace the Daikin system with a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. See above. The MHI system…

Hardware RAID is a bad idea and has been for the last decade. JBOD and modern file systems all the way. I'm partial to BTRFS, it works…

It wasn't when I posted. They are sold out of 4TB now and that link redirects to a 1TB and 512GB product page.

JBOD is an upside. Avoid hardware RAID like the plague. Do it all with software RAID.
