Can anyone, I mean anyone, please explain to me that allure of so called cats. We are happy and have no cats. I just don’t get it

I might have to donate to this. Awesome project

Your funny 🙂

*Peace of mind

This is the geekiest thing I’ve ever heard. I love it

Someone might have already mentioned it, but M.2 is just a physical connector. You can have M.2 SATA or M.2 NVME drives. Prefer NVME (a modern motherboard should support it but older ones only do SATA)

Thanks!

Ah, I didn’t realise it might be difficult on the apple side registering as a company etc. Maybe it’s not worth the effort, but I’m gonna look into the options you mentioned

I’ll check it out, thanks

I’ll check it out, thanks

That’s what I am using at the moment but wondered what extra MDM would allow. Plus it’s an opportunity to learn and mess around with it :)

I’ve not used them yet but was looking at https://www.plinkusa.net/

They have a variety of heights and depths, some of them being 15”

Makes sense, thanks for the info

I already run proxmox but not TrueNAS. I’m really just confused about the HBA card. Probably a stupid question but why can’t TrueNAS access regular drives connected to SATA?

I’d love to find out more about this setup. Do you know of any blogs/wikis explaining that? Are you separating the storage from the compute with the HBA card?

My TP link switch can detect faults and cable length. I’m not sure it can do both together but it’s possible. Worth checking if you have a switch with those features
