I'm sorry but Chinese software and hardware. I find it hard to trust it with my local storage/backup. I'll pick a Taiwanese solutions over this which are more superior.
I've been using it for a couple years. I upgraded the RAM, added a VGA out, and installed Xpenology. I quit using it for Plex but it does all my automation tasks real well.
This one has an ARM processor, not Intel, so I don't think you can run Xpenology. I have an older Terramaster with an Intel processor that I run Xpenology on, but I don't think that can be done on this model.

Oof, that's a bummer. Mine does have Intel. Thought it was the same model#

Research a bit and you can build your own NAS with FreeNAS S/W for less than $500, even a lot less if you are patient and don't have an imminent need for a server.

Could you link one please?
I find that to be an interesting idea.
Thanks

been using this for over 2 years, was a bit tricky initially setting up, getting win 10 to find its ip address was a learning experience. Also be sure to have your router assign a fixed dhcp address to it nerwork ip - you dont want that changing.
Thanks. would you mind ellaborating why you prefer Synology?
Also, is there any monthly subscription if setting up VPN on these entities?
Haven't done any research yet.
I have only used synology. I find them updating the software very often and even after owning one for like 8 years. The Software is very good and almost everything is easy to setup.
To setup a VPN; you would need to setup a vpn server which free since it is your hardware and your bandwidth.

I would be interested in doing this but am not super tech/programming savvy. Is there a direction you can point me in to software for setting up my own VPN? I have a free one on my phone (thanks slickdeals!) but I don't believe it is usable for my laptop.
