The unit is shipping in the US, and the latest OS allows for IP tunneling over USB4, so I think this is a good solution for my Mac Studio and video editing.
But I haven't seen benchmarks for IP Tunneling with NVMe SSD read/write caching.
I was thinking of a four or six bay unit with Ironwolf Pro 24Mb drives.
What I don't know is what brand of NVMe SSD memory to add and what quantity/size? What is the sweet spot? They would need to be very durable for lots of read/writes, and too large a cache might not be helpful.
Also will I need additional DDR5 ECC RAM, and if so is there an alternative to the Asustor RAM which seems overpriced?
