Really appreciated your reviews on YouTube, and Naz compares.
I’d be glad to make a donation to help support the time it takes you to offer me some suggestions on the right M.2 E1.S. Let me know what a reasonable amount would be to get your help. If it looks right, I can use PayPal, I couldn’t get my credit card to authorize any charges to KO – FI

Also, I used your click through link for an Amazon purchase for this unit.
Thank you so much for your support and kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you found my reviews helpful. As for your question about M.2 E1.S drives for your QNAP TBS-h574TX, I'd be happy to provide some suggestions. Since you're looking to utilize the Thunderbolt 4 and 10GbE capabilities of your NAS, I recommend high-performance M.2 E1.S SSDs to fully leverage these features. Options like the Samsung PM9A1 or the Western Digital Ultrastar DC SN840 could be excellent choices for your setup, offering fast read/write speeds and reliability.
