Hello, I have a DS220+ and will probably have to build my NAS but wanted to put a feeler out. Thanks for being here. Very kind. I have interest in something more robust than the Zima2. Something with pcie lanes I can use with M.2 and Sata capabilities. The reason for the pcie is to have flexibility, with the use case emerging from what kind of connection to ethernet I have. I'd like the ability for my computer to talk with the NAS at 10g ethernet speeds. If the NAS comes with that option than the pcie will be used for say a nvme expansion card or u.2. I have an Epyc system with 2x3090 and as you might guess I am learning about local LLM development mainly persistent memory hence the desire for large amounts of storage. I'd like it to kind of be like a library for the LLM, but also have my own storage partitioned out. Probably TMI but thanks for reading. Looking forward to your reply.
